What controller do you use when playing emulated games?

[Cyphoscin]

Do you have one universal controller, or do you use adapters to play with the appropriate hardware (controller) for each system? I have an Xbox 360 controller and a wireless PC receiver for it, but the D-pad is absolutely horrible. I was wondering about possibly getting "to-USB" type adapters for my SNES, N64, etc controllers, but wanted to know what everyone else does before doing so.

Also, does the d-pad on the SNES controllers seem loose to you guys? Like, wiggles around and such. I can't remember if its supposed to do that or if mine is just old!

Usually I play everything with the 360 controller and works excellent with all the psx emulator games (Beat em up's, action, rpg's, race, etc.).
But I also have a PS1 analog controller from my old old old PS and I buyed an USB adapter for like U$s 5 and works fine too.

Pretty much just a wired 360 controller and once in awhile the PS3 controller.

Probably should be in General Gaming....

Probably.

I use a PS2 controller, it seems to work well.

i use a wired 360 controller, and have the software installed for a ps3 one as well, though i almost never use it.

The original Dual Shock controller from my PS1 via to-usb adapter. Works quite well although I'm considering getting something different since I can't get a proper grip with that controller.

The only durable wired USB controller seems to be the MS 360. Any thoughts on the Razer Sabertooth or Logitech F310? We have a lot of high quality PC arcade sticks but not gamepads

I currently use a Wii Classic Pro w/ a Mayflash adapter

I never had that problem with the one that comes with software (PC 045). Are you using the plug-and-play version?

PSX/PS2 to USB converters here, I can also use those with my PS3 double handy

I have also used PC controllers but they just don't have the quality of console controllers at least at the time they didn't, not looked at PC controllers since

I have had 360 wired controllers Wii controllers and PS3 controllers on my PC as well, but I just go back to using the PSX/PS2 converters instead, comes in handy that I actually have a few PSX and PS2 controllers to use as well.

The converters are very cheap at the moment the last couple I got are apx £3, that was from either amazon or ebay I forget, but these are listed as PS2 to PS3 converters, rather than PS2 to PC converters, but do work with both.

I used the drivers that came with it and its the PC 045.
