PC Controller rec? (hexbear.net)
submitted 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) by GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net to c/games@hexbear.net
 

Mostly looking for a decent quality anyway in regards to button quality and comfort but the main thing is a good analogue stick with no dead zone and it means it. I mostly want it to play f zero x where tilt is crucial. Aside from that just generally decent is fine, but I need a good fidelity stick

That or something I can do to get a ps3 controller working on my computer thst isn't also a bunch of malware

8bitdo also has a conversion mod kit for original n64 controllers to bluetooth (they advertise it working with android and switch). The cheaper $30 config is unavailable rn but the $40 one comes with a hall effect joystick, so you could even use one with a broken stick.

I'd think it would work with a PC with bluetooth as well, but it's possible it doesn't if they aren't claiming it does.

Edit: I did some googling, apparently it does work with PC as a Dinput controller. And people have described the stick as "very precise" but is somewhere between a GameCube-style control stick and an n64 one.
