    Sick Bug Extra buttons for joystick (9, 10, 11 & 12)

    Could there be more buttons for joystick. This will suit better for a USB Gamepad. (For example: The start button would be button 10)

    EDIT: I use a generic USB joystick (A Playstation Dualshock-like controller that has a USB plug instead) or "USB Vibration Joystick" if the hardware is installed.

    I agree! I have a LogiTech USB gamepad that looks like a PS2 controller. We do need to have more joystick button assignments. I have to assign the select and start to button 3 and 4.

    I'm gonna disagree with this. I use a gamepad also, and all the buttons are already set up. There's nothing else to set them too. What exactally would you like them to do???

    I have a Saitek P150 which has '12' buttons and a D-pad and joystick.

    The various joysticks need to be allowed. It's annoying to have to use the joystick for perpendicular movement. I don't like having to use the keyboard to get good control.

    I use a SmartJoy Dual Plus to connect a PS2 controller to the USB port. Support for the start ,select, L1,L2,R1,R2 would be nice. For now, I have to bind start to Circle.

    Re: Extra buttons for joystick (9, 10, 11 & 12)

    To make it Truly NES, I suggest adding an SELECT function in the joystick buttons dialog box. This way, button 9 would be the SELECT button used to pause the game (F3 Equivalent) or move the heart in the Select screen or the "Continue, Save, Retry" Screen.
