Using a controller for games?

[HomerSimpson]

Guys I am a newbie and I have a question. Can you buy a contoller or use your mouse to control the games such as the ones with SNES, Sega Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast, etc. I hate having to use the keyboard. Any suggestions on what I can do?

I use a cheap logitech dual shock one, it works for N64, Snes and PSX emulators for sure, dunno about the others ones though.

What about if I buy a XBOX360 controller, How will that work?

As for a mouse, if use Zsnes it will let you use your mouse for the SNES mouse. Works flawlessly, so far for me anyways.

Walmart has a USB adapter for $10-$15 that you can use to plug PS1/2, gamecube and I believe XBOX controllers into and it attaches to your computer through USB.

I use my ps1 controller to play my psx games through this.

I built a controller out of a usb cable and a xbox controller.

A cheap usb controller eg. logitech should work fine, or if u know u'r sh*t, build one. :)
