  • DS4Windows

    Discontinued Like those other ds4tools, but sexier

  • I'm using Dolphin Emulator, PCSX2, CEMU and PPSSPP. Most emulators on Windows PC work fine with a basic X-input style controllers (basically XBOX controllers). You can use a Sony DS4 controller too but you may need DS4Windows (a translation program to make your controller act like an X-input controller). Same goes to using a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller (a translation program like DS4Windows or BetterJoy will be needed). If you are into WiiU emulation, you may need the gyro function (for certain games like Zelda Breath of the Wild). Do note that the XBOX controller does not have gyro function.

  • BetterJoy

    Allows the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, Joycons and SNES controller to be used with CEMU, Citra, Dolphin, Yuzu and as generic XInput
