Hi all, I'm new to these forums and Project64.
I've done some SNES retrogaming using a cheap and flimsy Logitech Precision Gamepad, which worked fine though. But for N64 games I don't think it will be good enough. I could probably play through games using it but I also think it's missing some functionality that could make gameplay annoying and difficult. The lack of a Thumbstick (my gamepad only has a D-pad and basic buttons) seems to be the biggest drawback.
So my question is whether any gamepad with a Thumbstick will do for playing N64 games or should I look for other specific functions when shopping for a new controller? I will be playing Zelda OoT first so if that game has specific needs as far as a controller is concerned I would appreciate your help with that as well.
Thanks
