I saw there was a games forum, but after looking in it I found out that's not exactly what I was expecting. So here I come to the General Forum to search for my answer.

I am looking for recommendations for a wireless controller for a computer. I'm going to put some emulators on my computer (NES, SNES, N64, possibly SEGA) & would like recommendations for a wireless controller. I'm not looking to drop $50 on a controller. I was hoping to maybe spend around $20. I currently have a 360 (I've heard you can use these but I don't know how), PS 3 & 4. The computer I have does not have Bluetooth.

This is my computer. I'm running Windows 8.1

Hi there. I use an XBOX 360 wired controller for games on the computer. You can use the wireless ones too, but you need to buy a wireless receiver for it. Do you have a GAME store near you? Or something similar. If you went there and asked, I'm sure they'd help. If you're on a Mac, I'm not sure if it'll work. If you're on Linux, you may be okay; I've not tried mine on Linux yet as I don't really game on it. If on Windows, you should be fine for most games.

PS
If you ever wanna ramble about games, my PM inbox is open to you. I like the social group thing but it's sadly not active so I rarely go there now.

Sweet machine! xD I've been looking at Raspberry Pi machines recently, myself... those tiny things are awesome.
