Alright, thank you all.

Hello. I'm a newbie to the Super Metroid speedrunning community. I'm currently using a Gamecube controller to play Super Metroid on an emulator, as the controls there are more adjusted for arm-pumping and the face buttons are in much more conducive spots for my fingers to go from one to the other. I was just wondering if it would be okay to use the left analog stick, as long as controls on other parts of the controller that aren't going to line up 1-1 with the SNES controller aren't also going to be mapped.
