Noobie question on PS4/MAME
« on: September 16, 2020, 05:26:55 am »
Hi guys!!!!! :applaud:

I will be building my machine early 2021, and was looking at different setups that will be to play PS4 games and classic arcade.

Is it possible to do this?

What interfaces would I need to get the PS4 connected to my joysticks..

Sorry for the lame questions, Ive trawled through loads of threadds and looked on you tube but cant seem to find anything ( poss my fault)

Is Ali express a good place to buy stuff from?

Thanks

I don't believe you can use third party controllers with PS4. AFAIK you need a DualShock 4. The DS4 works on PC, but not vice versa.

AliExpress is okay if you don't need the item at all and don't mind waiting 2+ months for it to arrive (if ever).
