MAME - Gamepad PS3 - how-to buttons config?

[fredisback81]

Hi all,

I've no problems to (automatically) configure my PS3 Gamepad / Bluetooth and use it for a myriad of systems, except MAME / Arcade until now.

Since most of these ROMs / systems are special, is there another way of configuring input devices / buttons for these arcade / MAME games? Or what is the idea, that each ROM has to be configured on its own (e.g. within Retroarch / Op
tions / Input configuration ?)

My specs: rpi 3b+, rb 7.0.1, Gamepad: Standard PS3 Bluetooth

Thanks,
fredisback81

You can customize the controls via the Retroarch menu as you mentioned, it is possible to save a configuration by core or by game, as you prefer.
Another option is to try this with Configuration overload:
