What did you do for Q*Bert?

More than likely, if you use the analog map function in the more recent versions of MAME. I have U360s, so I can't be sure about what the P360 does exactly.

It doesn't need to do diagonal.
1) Set the stick to 8-way mode.
2) In the "this game" setup, set:
Up=JoyUp&JoyRight
Right=JoyRight&JoyDown
Down=JoyDown&JoyLeft
Left=JoyLeft&JoyUp
This will make it so that the game won't see an "UP" signal until the joystick is pushed to the upper right diagonal.
The other directions will be similar.
The square shaped restrictor on the 8-way mode will make it feel like a diamond shaped restrictor that is rotated 45 degrees--which is what Q*Bert had from the factory.

No/Yes.
The p360 can do a diagonals only like any 8-way stick. (as TheShanMan & NoOne said)
It it's analog, so it can't do it exactly like the u360.

I've got a massive SlikStik Quad & the outer 2 joysticks are already rotated 45 degrees. I swapped out the player 4 normal 8-way sticks for one of those pull-me-and-twist-me-and-I-magically-become-a-4-way joysticks.

Hadn't thought of that one...although, then you're off to the side playing Q-bert.....
