    Because I don't want to utterly hijack redrumloa's thread here, I want to ask whether:

    a) Is it possible to remap the buttons on SNES emulation (something similar to the function of GenesisPlus)?

    b) Though my gamepad works fantastic with all the programs I 've test it, it doesn't seem to be recognized under MAME. Furthermore, I can't seem to locate the cfg which, perhaps I need to tweak a little. Can somebody confirm whether MAME supports joypad and how to enable it?

    Id recommend you read the mame docs, but to configure for joystick hit TAB (iirc) and you configure from there. there are globabl configs and game by game configs. nd yes joystick is supported in morphos version since forever

    Thank you, it worked! I could have sworn that I pressed every button on the keyboard, but not TAB! :P

    Now what about SNES? I have the strange feeling that the select button is not mapped on my joypad...
