Hi i bought a small ps1 a few days ago

i have 2 other psx that are both chipped but the problem is , in the beginning all my joysticks worked on both psx but after a while they just dont work anymore . Its not the sticks themselves as they work on my ps3 and pc and sega saturn , 1of my sticks still work on the psx's as long as i have a psx pad plugged but the rest dont .

The problem im having with the small ps1 is that tekken3 just doesnt seem to work with the disc swap method i know its not me ****ing up , because ive gotten it to work with almost all of my games apart from tekken 3 . I have a nero burned image version / clone CD version / Alcohol 120 / original japanese disc version . All theses versions work on my 2 chipped psx 100% .

All my joysticks work on the small ps1 thats why its so dam frustrating

And i really need to practice tekken3 properly as im travelling to peru soon to take part in a big tekken3 national and that country plays the game hardcore , i dont really like the epsx emu tekken3 cause it still isnt 100% perfect and bleemcast version slows down at times during juggles

If anyone that has ever gotten tekken3 to work with the disc swap method please help i'd be most greatful
