1200XL M.U.L.E. Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I just downloaded Higan after stumbling onto a SNES ROM repository. What is a good controller that works well with it? I found a generic SNES clone on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Controller-Gamepad-Joystick-Gamestick-Raspberry/dp/B01MYUDDCV/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3GX839ZU7YDX9&keywords=snes%2Busb%2Bcontroller&qid=1665804619&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI0LjA4IiwicXNhIjoiMy40MCIsInFzcCI6IjMuMzMifQ%3D%3D&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011%2Cp_72%3A1248885011&rnid=1248883011&rps=1&s=videogames&sprefix=snes%2Busb%2Bcontrolle%2Caps%2C155&sr=1-3&th=1 Thanks for your help and guidance!

WhataKowinkydink Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 The Logitech F310 has worked well for me for Higan, FCEUX, zSNes, and Dolphin, as well as working well for newer games running right on the hardware (not emulated) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I am still using my pair of Super Nintendo SMARTJoy USB adapter. One is in my dedicated cabinet and one I use with my portable laptop setup. They are both still working great after 10+ years of use. I also recently sold my SNES deck but I kept the Hyperkin Scout Premium BT Controller. Plugged it in and now I'm wireless when I want to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMaddog Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 For overall emulation on RetroArch, I use my Xbox One wired gamepad. The D-Pad and four face buttons have a good feel for Nintendo style games. But for a more athentic experence you can order any USB SNES gamepad online. No need for drivers, just remap the button settings in your emulator... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1200XL M.U.L.E. Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 Thanks for the suggestions, everyone! I went to a local thrift store last Sunday and what did I happen to find? A wired Logitech F310 controller for $2.99 recommended by @WhataKowinkydink! It works very well with RetroArch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
