Cursor and stick

Why it (cursor) always centering on the screen when I release a stick? Why it can't be on same place where I leave it like when I'm using a mouse? It' very uncofotable.

Because your joystick is centering when you release the stick! Your mouse would do the same if you moved it back to the center, instead you can pick it up and keep going on forever and ever. This isn't really something that can be solved easily, I mean, your joystick is doing exactly what it should be doing!

No. It centering even if you using WASD on keyboard to control a cursor. So stick is not a problem.

Think about what a keyboard key is doing - 100% on, 100% off. 1 to 0. That's like a joystick being mashed all the way to one side (+255) and the instantly back to the center (0). A mouse is different because it uses relative coordinates; it only records speed and direction, it has no way whatsoever to restore itself to a prior point, since it has no idea where it used to be! But with both the joystick and the keyboard keys, they are designed to be activated and then return to a rest state when released, and that is what they are doing.

Dolphin needs some new configuration for Wiimote emulation where cursor can save it position.
