1. If you can already use the controller with MAME then that is a good start. What controller is it? Most of the time people are able to hack the controller and connect buttons of their made controller. The problem comes in when connecting joysticks. Old school joysticks are analog (they have a micro switch for each direction of movement. 4 way and 8 way controllers) New controllers can be found that are digital. Your controller most likely has digital sticks. Take a Nintendo controller as an example. http://www.wishtech.com/buttons2.gif The center stick control, operates as buttons (analog) the + pad operates digitally with the x and y access.
