I have just bought a used Retrolink usb snes controller and it doesn't seem to be working properly. I am wondering if the issue lies with the controller itself or, if not, is there anything I can do to fix this problem. I am running Windows 7 and it recognizes the controller when I plug it in. When I open up Nestopia and go to 'input' the controller shows up there as well. I am able to map out the controller's buttons the way I like and each button is recognized when I assign them. I then press 'ok' and attempt to play an NES game - this is where the problem begins.
When I press the buttons on the controller they will respond half of the time or they won't work at all. Sometimes when I press an arrow to make the character run it will keep running after I take my finger off of the arrow. I'm assuming that there is a problem with the controller itself but I'm quite inexperienced in this area so I'm really unsure.
I told the person I bought it from and they said it had been working fine for them up until I bought it. This seems to be an honest response from him. I will say that when he dropped the controller off it was raining quite heavily and it was exposed to the rain very briefly...
Can anyone offer any help or advice? I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks.
