I have the Mega Drive gamepad variation pictured in this article, where the d-pad is connected to a plastic circular piece on the back of the PCB where it triggers 4 rubber buttons.

But the down direction is very unresponsive. I’ve cleaned it well in the hopes that sticky plastic was the cause, but it wasn’t.

Any tips? Replacement rubbers, a piece of padding maybe?

    I did get the M30. It’s delightful but there’s one problem - it looks like The Lion King is one of the few games the Retro Receiver has a problem with. Any button presses while holding a direction on the D-pad interrupt the direction on the D-pad. So a roll becomes a crouch and a running jump becomes a standing jump. I’ve reached out to support, hopefully they can help, otherwise I’ll have to return it.
