==What control devices does MAME support?==
MAME supports three basic classes of controllers:
* standard keyboards
* mouse-like controllers (this includes most trackballs and lightguns)
* any DirectInput-visible control that has digital buttons or analog axes (this includes most joysticks and steering wheels)


Please note that most of MAME's controls are set up for development purposes, which means that most games will work fine with just some form of keyboard control. If you wish to use fancier control schemes, you will probably need to configure them within MAME to your liking.

==The arrow keys work, but I can't fire, jump, etc.==
==TRON's arm doesn't move; I can't aim in Heavy Barrel, etc.==
==When playing Star Wars (or other games) with a mouse, the crosshair moves in the wrong direction.==
==My joystick/controller still doesn't work.==
==I don't remember how to control this game.==
==What if I only want authentic arcade controls?==
