...
The recalbox team kindly presents... the original n64 gamepad!!!

@paradadf
then problem with my pad :

because I remove this controller, and with the keyboard, i can play, it's ok.

it's the configgen, I must configure my controller in which file ? thanks

[paradadf]

HOW IN THIS LOVING WORLD do you plan to use a NES pad for n64??? WHAT do you want to configure?

[33ced]

@paradadf

OK i use this controller because i have this, and i would like play only with 4-5 N64 games.
I cannot with this controller or i can modify a script, a cfg file for mupenControllers? thanks

For n64 you need a gamepad with more buttons like psx or xbox360 gamepad. It's not possible with a NES gamepad.

[Substring]

You can not play N64 with a NES pad. How do you want to play on a controler that has 1 dpaf, 1 analogue stick, 10 buttons on a pad that is 30% of what is expected ? You can't.

This problem will be the same with megadrive, PSX and many more emulators ...

@Substring

OK I see....and with which controller i can play of most of emulator (for example sees controller or n64 gamepad, it's ok for psx, n64 .....)? thanks

[paradadf]

@acris you can never have enough buttons!

[33ced]

@paradadf Excellent!

and else, which controller/gamepad (psx/snes/n64/...) for most of emulator? thanks

[paradadf]

@33ced the picture I posted was a joke for acris only.
she already told you... twice! it is very simple actually... you need at least as many buttons as the original controller uses. so please, do some research before keeping asking for the same over and over again.

[33ced]

ok ok i understand, thank you at all, i close the topics, bye

NEEEEEEEEED !!!!!
Does it work with recalbox ? ^^

[voljega]

@paradadf is it a real one ???

[paradadf]

@voljega I don't think so... just googled for "controller with many buttons" and was too funny to post it XD

[lackyluuk]

@33ced A good choice for a controller could be this:

BUT, if you wanna play N64 in a proper way you almost need a N64 controller
