Most of the time I use the pdp Wired Xbox controller, but sometimes I’ll use the 8bitdo SNES30. Logitech Rumble Pad 2 still gets some use and if I’m feeling especially nostalgic I’ll use the SN Program pad with a SuperSmartJoy that converts it to USB.
Well I usually emulate older consoles with my Anbernic RG351V, but when I’m on a mood to do it on the TV I’d normally use my PS4 controller since it is easy to use with almost everything, I’d also use the Nvidia Shield TV controller, although dpad sucks 😂
I use an Xbox One controller personally. I always flip the face button mappings (if not automatically configured to do so) to make it the same button presses as Nintendo consoles.
I have a dual sense, but not actively using it because it has stick drift (received it from cousin with drift) waiting on if hall effect replacements get released for it in a short time frame before just replacing the stick box myself.
Outside of that, its the only reason why im using a DS4 over it. Mainly ise DS4 because other controllers tend to have middling/low end dpads
When it comes to emulation in general I use my Retroid Pocket 3+. Sometimes with a 8BitDo SN 30 Pro when it’s hooked up to a TV or when playing two player games.
And I use a Xbox Series S/X (?) Controller, but only when playing games on PC (doesn’t matter if emulated or standard PC games.
Use the 8bitdo SN30 pro, the one with out the handle grips. Works for so much. Even use it to play more modern games, tho it can get a little in comfortable.
I use a PS2 dualshock controller, bought a USB adaptor years ago. I’ve been gaming since the Atari times and in my opinion this was the best controller ever made.
If a don’t need an analog stick, my go-to has been the Hori Fighting Commander Octa. It has a stick, but I don’t use it often. The buttons are microswitched and it feels great.
If I do need the sticks, Series X controllers are fine, generally.
But honestly, it kind of sucks dick. It’s really uncomfortable and constantly ran into issues that I had to repair until it gave up entirely. Now i’m looking for a new controller, but i’ll most likely go for an 8bitdo one

I’d like to have an 8bitdo controller though.

Dualshock 4
I got a Dualsense recently and love it. The USB C charging is especially nice.

XBox 360 wired controller.
Razer kishi v2 connected to my iPhone using afterplay.io
Basically a retro switch on my iPhone
8bitdo Ultimate for me, if I’m playing on a big screen.
Retro-Bit Saturn pad, just feels right for most 2D games. Soon I will be using an 8bitdo Neo Geo CD pad though.
I run everything on a Retroid Pocket 2+, so…uh, the Retroid Pocket 2+, lol. A handheld system just suits me better.

i used to use a Logitech F310, this baby

I use a mix, but mostly the Xbox Series X controller, and the 8BitDo Ultimate.
