Ultimate I Spy - Mouse Input Issues - woot100 - 01-07-2022
Hey, first time poster, searched over and over for threads on this but didn't find an answer. So, I figure I should just sit down and make my own. I'll try to keep this short.
I'm trying to run Ultimate I Spy, and it works fantastically until literally the first major input. Game boots up, I can easily press A to select menu options and advance tutorial text, but when I have to press and hold A to turn a crank in the tutorial, it stops working. Like, it still understands I'm making a spinning motion with my cursor, but it doesn't seem to understand I'm holding down the button. Seems to think I'm merely tapping it once.
I'm using a Magegee G6S mouse [cringey I knowww, I got it secondhand for an alright deal] so I wonder if the extra buttons are confusing it? It's got a little DPI button on top and two scroll buttons on the side, but I don't have those mapped to anything [tried mapping one to A briefly to see if it'd work, to no avail. Immediately reset it to default after.]
I've tried restarting and I've tried running dolphin as administrator and I've tried remapping the button to multiple different keyboard keys, nothing seems to work. I can't help but feel like there's a hilariously obvious solution staring me in the face, but I've already spent hours googling about this, so thread it is I guess!

Maybe keep the controller window up, so you can see if you are still holding a.
Also, I found this video where the cursor didn't move. https://youtu.be/4DovQR6zuSg?t=89
So maybe see if it will accept shakes or swings?

tried that, enabled input display and strangely enough it DOES seem to recognize I'm holding down A, so there's... seemingly no reason why it shouldn't work. Tried shakes or swings too as you suggested. suuuuper weird. if it IS recognizing my inputs, is it an issue with the rom? am i just bonkers?
if i can think of another game that requires click-and-drag esque movements to try out and see if it's broken there too, i'll report back
