MAME

A note on player "save/load" buttons. There has to be some kind of limitation somewhere with a gamepad. Saves must occur by entering a number 0-9.

Neo Geo AES

The "Input (general)" controls seem to me shared by MAME (which I configured first). This seems to be only on first run of the emulator, as each subsequent time, changes were kept separate. The difference with MESS is I configure them by system, such as the Neo Geo AES here.

PS1/PSX

DualShock Controller Notes: Mednafen does not officially support save or laod states, and also, due to the Dualshock analog configuration using those stick button presses, this function is disabled. The PS button still exits the game as expected.

To swap between the digital pad and the Dualshock analog mode, You have to use a combination of buttons to toggle it instead. When Select, Start, and all four shoulder buttons are held down for about 1 second, the mode will toggle. Games that support the DualShock configuration from the start, should* default already to the correct mode. If not, you can try to toggle to it.
