I've been dreaming about getting a USB controller for a very long time, not just for ROMs but for other games too.
Basically I did some planning on this one. I figured if I bought my ticket to see The Dark Knight BEFORE I went to EB Games before hand I would have enough time and enough money to pick up the USB controller and a meatball subway, just before meeting my friend to see the movie with.
After a 3 hour masterpiece of Batmannery, I took the controller home and was frustrated with the instructions, only to find it was a simple matter of calibrating the controller and just using it from there.
First game I used with it was Pokemon. It's embarrassing. Then I tried Mario Kart 64 with it and I was hooked on using it, never turning back to a keyboard again.
Turns out I can use it for a variety of things, including Counter-Strike Source of all things. I wouldn't use it for The Sims or RTS games but for other games it can't be beat.
Which games do you recommend I try next? I'm thinking Mischief Makers.
