Keyboard controls limited for gamecube games

[Tahtguy]

Whenever I play Metroid Prime I am not able to strafe, which is L (lock on), left or right on the analog and b (jump). I currently am only using my keyboard with the controls given (working on getting a controller but I don't know if it will fix the problem. Another issue is I cannot lock on and fire while moving to the right (it works going forward, backward and to the left)
