Dualshock 4 = great for emulators
« on: November 01, 2013, 06:31:45 pm »
Canned the PS4 pre-order, but I got a Dualshock 4 for about 20 bucks with some extreme couponing.

Anyway, it's got a great D-pad and it's recognized as a joystick by Windows 8.1.  Performs beautifully in MAME and has lots of buttons.

New drivers are out for this thing on the PC.  It can now communicate wirelessly via bluetooth, have full control of the LED colors, and use the touchpad as a mouse input. 

It works so damn well I'm pondering a gaming PC vs a console this generation.
