Gopher360
Gopher360 is a free zero-config app that instantly turns your Xbox 360, Xbox One, or even DualShock controller into a mouse and keyboard. Just download, run, and relax.
Project mention: Gopher360 - Use a gamepad as a wireless mouse on windows pc. (see post for more info) | reddit.com/r/disabledgamers | 2022-11-25I hope some people find this useful, but I found a freeware utility called Gopher360. It allows any xbox360/one or Dual Sense(with InputMapper 1.5+) controller to be used as a mouse on a windows pc. This would allow someone to have a pc hooked up to a tv and not have to have a mousepad on the couch. It can be set to autostart when you start up the pc, and the mouse track speed can be adjusted on the fly. I have back problems, and sometimes I need to be able to lean back in my chair while I am on my computer and this way I can just grab my controller and not worry about the mouse.

Project mention: Input fields and Steam gamepad support with Unity game | reddit.com/r/gamedev | 2022-10-19
In my last project we used daemon3000/InputManager for rebinding with the old input system. Worked well, but it's been refactored heavily since the version we shipped with (now supports local multiplayer better I think).

I found a third party brand, Teensy, that has a LOT more pins on their boards, however the xinput library only supports their version 3.x boards, while the most recent version is 4.1; in the github repo the lack of support has been reported but seemingly not solved (https://github.com/dmadison/ArduinoXInput_Teensy/issues/19).
