[BUG] Touch joystick does not work properly for N64

[iNiAX]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Hi,
I experience that the left bottom "touch joystick" does not work properly for N64 games. The joystick only reacts to "UP-LEFT" and "DOWN-RIGHT", but not DOWN, UP, RIGHT and LEFT. This issue is only present for the touch controls, when I connect at bluetooth controller, the issue goes away. It also does not solve the issue, if I change the touch controls setup in the setting menu. I have tested it on Safari on iOS and Google Chrome on Android.

Expected Behavior

I expect the virtual joystick to react on all direction inputs for N64 games.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Launch frontend on Safari iOS or Google Chrome Android device.
2. Select any N64 game
3. The bottom left touch joystick only reacts on "UP-LEFT" and "DOWN-RIGHT"
