Wired Controller Only working with some games

[raybanoutlet]

When I try to play games on dolphin 5.0, I am finding that some games will work with my controller and some won't. The Controller I'm using is a PDP wired fight pad pro, which is a mold of the switch pro controller in a GameCube body. the games it seems to work for include smash melee and super monkey ball, and it fails to work on games like battle for bikini bottom or Paper Mario TTYD. Does anybody know if this is a problem with the controller, the games, or something else?

Make sure you've set up Port 1 in Dolphin's controller settings, not Port 2, 3 or 4.
