We regularly use PS4, USB SNES, USB GameCube, and a couple of other weird controllers. Most of the time works well.

@gbryant Hah! I actually added Game Cube button prompts to @vexpanse at some point to demo it at a convention. Unfortunately kinda unplayable without the second shoulder and back/select buttons. :( I never found a satisfying workaround for that.


Shouldn't you test N64 on steam input first? I think retroarch gets controllers through steam input layer first.

So, I actually did and accidently cut that part from the video. But it got me thinking... so I went back and removed the memory card from the controller and that actually made it work. Not sure why, but it now works. I've rendered a new version and it's being uploaded to YouTube.
