In retroarch select can be set as a hotkey, and that breaks the hold function, you should be able to change that to another key then it will work. Let me know if you manage it from this description, otherwise I'll find the exact menu item for you!

Done! Thanks so much!
I haven't change the hotkeys because it wasn't very clear to me in the menus but i have set the button R3 as "select" only for this game and it worked! Holding R3 now takes me back to the ship. :)
I don't know if the select button will work to change weapons or i will have to use R3 as well. At the moment i only have the blaster with two upgrades. I guess that since is only pressing but not holding, the select button will still work for that matter... Right?
I have a second question for you guys if you don't mind. Since i'm emulating in an anbernic handheld and not using real harware, do you recomend the use of the "color correction" feature from the core to emulate the look of the original AGB-001 regarding the colors? What was your vision choosing the colors for the game?
Again thanks so much, it's a real pleasure to play it.
Cheers from Spain!
I think you'll need to use R3 to change weapon modes in that case too (but that's an ok layout I think, it is also an occasional button).
The other solution is to change Settings > Input > Hotkeys > 'Hotkey Enable' to eg. R3 instead (then you can turn select back to it's normal assignment).
The colours were pushed hard in part to help things still work on poorer GBA screens, but I still prefer them bright and unfiltered, and will be leaving them that way for other ports!
Thanks!
