Has anyone else had a problem with D-Pad "bounce" on their 2215? When I press UP or DOWN on the D-Pad, sometimes it will go on a mad little tear, something like UP-DOWN-UP or UP-UP-DOWN-DOWN-UP. Are there any software settings I can alter to fix this? :?:

The d-pad is set very sensitive by default on the 2215. And, because the button is so tiny, the switches are very close together and easy to actuate consecutively. Try adjusting the settings in Start > Settings > Buttons > Up/Down Control.

I played with these settings, but they don't seem to help in correcting this problem, even when setting the delay to the longest setting. When the d-pad "bounces" (which happens about once every five times I press UP or DOWN), it happens right away with no delay, as if I was repeatedly stabbing at the button. Wonder if it is a hardware (switch) problem?

Update: I just noticed that if I press the pad LIGHTLY then the problem doesn't happen. I guess I just need to stop stabbing at the button so hard. :)
