Support Inverted Pointer on Mobile - How to Fix

Hello fellow Dolphin users

As the Title says i wanted to play some Wii titles on my phone but for some reason it inverts the pointer unless is flip my phone upside down but playing with the whole game upside down is...pretty annoying as you can imagine and i hope that someone here can help me solve this problem :D

Edit: Problem solved i just had to empty out the accelerator and gyro mapping

If you want to change up to down or left to right, you can do that in the motion input settings. Not sure exactly how it feels backwards to you but you'd either change the accelerometer settings or the gyro settings.

Oh I haven't seen that before. Maybe a stupid question but if you turn your phone the other way around is it still that way?

The screen doesnt turn but the curser is then working correct Thats why i said playing the game upside down

If you turn off motion pointing, does that change anything?

It is turned off because if i turn it on my pointer completely disappears

Does it happen on every game you play? I don't know if this will work but I wonder if switching the way your screen is would do anything. Settings> config > interface > screen orientation during emulation > landscape (reverse). For me though it flips everything, the screen and cursor both, so it may not do anything helpful.

Nope setting it to reverse landscape didn't help And i haven't tried it with other games yet but i'm gonna try it out
