    A normal NES controller will work

    The arcade version uses a Paddle though (it's a dial)

    I use fceux for most of my NES emulation, as you have not told us in what way it is not working we don't know what the issue could be

    I does not matter what controller you use as long as you can configure it in the emulator

    You can use that with any emulator

    What I am asking is how does one configure this controller to use as a paddle?

    If it supports paddle then set the paddle controls to your left analog sticks left/right but I can't see paddle support in Nestopia at all

    The emu I use supports Paddle but that uses your mouse, though you could use an external prog to convert an analog stick to act as a mouse

    Get the arcade version instead, MAME would do and I know you can config the analog sticks to a Paddle in that
