Xbox 360 controller for Dolphin? (wanna play Sonic Colors).

Sonic Colors

New member
Hi there! I just have found this forum, hope you can help me out if possible with a little problem I have.

Well, yesterday I downloaded Dolphin from this website and I must say is awesome how comfortable it is, since it doesn't even need BIOS nor anything annoying like other emulators. So, I run Sonic Colors on my PC watching it beautiful intro, but I couldn't configure my wireless Xbox 360 controller, since the emu didn't recognize it, though works perfectly when playing Sonic Generations PC version. I have no Xbox, but I purchased this pad anyway because is pretty good. So, the point is: how can I configure my Dolphin in order to play Sonic Colors using my Xbox 360 controller?

Thank you in advance.


PD: Exactly this one is what I have.

Make sure you have downloaded and installed the corresponding drivers for your gamepad. Dolphin is already compatible with both DirectInput and XInput, so I don't see why shouldn't it work. Make sure the following:

  • Latest Dolphin version (both 2.0 and 3.0 support XInput, but 3.0 doesn't run New Super Mario Bros. Wii for a reason unknown to me). Get it here or you can find it in our download section here.
  • Latest DirectX version (DX9.0c for Windows XP, DX11 for Windows Vista/7). Available here.
  • Controller driver installed. Get it here.
