Have you went into the mame config default menu, while in a mame game I press the ‘tab’ key on my keyboard and set up the key mappings for the controller in this menu at the to Player 1 (P1) controller? You can also set P2 P3 and P4.

In game specfic menu you can define joystick/buttons to what ever for that game.

Also binding ‘ESC’ on the keyboard (it’s a default setting) and ‘select + start’ of the joypad to ‘exit’ the mame emulation.

Hope this helps.

Just to add to this, I’ve also tried this, changing the button keys for the nes emulator for a better gaming experience. (I’ve no issue getting any of the emu working on any other system – even the C64! but just never changed the keys to something other than default.)

Tried changing the the keys in “/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg”
and also “/opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg”

I also noted from a comment on Floob video regarding having the key input lines before the #include line (originally on line 1) and inserting them before this #include. Still no joy in getting the buttons as I like them.

I’ll be trying out beta 3, to see if this sorts this issue.

p.s – Floob? thank you for all you excellent videos btw really great help on all things retropie :)
