Best way to add snes controller?

Post by SpartanBurger »

Hi, I've been playing snes roms for a while, but I am getting tired of using a keyboard. What is the best way to attach a snes controller to the computer? I see the usb adapter on the front page, is that the easiest/best method? Or is another way to do it easier? And also, what drivers would I need to use with it? Thanks

If you're handy with a soldering iron, you should check this out.

Personally, I wouldn't bother making an SNES adapter unless you're particularly fond of a certain SNES controller.

I'd get a good PC gamepad. I can personally recommend the Saitek P880, though you might want to look for one with a 4-face-button layout instead.
