Gamepad Answer: Simple answer please ( xbox, playstation(1/2),n64)

[wburling]

Hello,

I am looking for the easiest solution ( To me that would be one or two controllers and software that easily configures to each emulator) to get a controller(s) to use with Playstation (1/2), xbox and n64 games.

My main concern right now is getting Playstation games working right now. I heard getting a xbox or playstation 3 usb controllers is easiest, what about a specifiic gamepad?
I am using the ePSXe and it runs the games fine. I just want a controller or gamepad to make play easier for me.

Thank You for your info and thoughts!

Let me clarify.... I am a noob and confused on whether to use a gamepad for games or use a controller from a game console.
Also, someone told me there is a needed grogram in addition to the game console emulator? Some type of software to translate the controller actions to the emulator or work in conjuntion with the emulator to make the game console controllers work?

I am just looking for the best, easyiest solution.

I'm here to tell you right now the simplest way to get a game pad ( more specifically, the original game pad) to work is by following my sig. Now, if your looking to save money get a n64 adapter and a ps3 or xbox controller. These devices are HID complaint and dont need drivers ( at least I think the xbox 360 is HID). The n64 is a good layout for n64 and most sega games. I even use the 6 button layout for arcade games. The xbox would fit most of the rest. For my, I choose to just use the controller that was intended for the game. Call me crazy, but that what I prefer and is the reason I developed the Bliss-Box.
