At first I thought this was a software problem. I installed Duke Nukem 3D, which looks great, but when I try to move about sometimes it seems like a certain movement is 'stuck' and poor Duke starts running around in circles, though pressing the joypad in multiple directions can sometimes fix this. Today I got Picodrive on my phone and started playing Streets of Rage 2. Seems great, except the same thing happened. Skate was skatin' in all the wrong directions. Like with Nukem, messing around with the joypad sometimes got it back to normal, but it's a major annoyance. Besides having to map the controls to the number keys which would be a pain, does anyone know the cause of this and how to fix it?

Have you tried Duke Nukem or Picodrive?
