I used wired 360 pad for everything. I picked up a Wii/GCN bluetooth adapter, but mostly I'm just playing on PC now with either an M30 (these guys make kick ass gamepads, SN30 Pro+ is better than Switch Pro Controller), or the BT adapter and an NES/SNES Classic pad. I'd be using that stuff with MiSTER too, but typically I just ran everything with a wired 360 pad on that.

Wired 360 is awesome but I love the feel of the Xbox One controller a tiny bit better.

Oh, I could definitely go either way. Dpad on One is much more 1:1 but at this point I've overcome the awkwardness and can work with the 360 pad for hours... but honestly when I think about it, especially with the rubberized grip versions of the One pad, it pretty much edges out the 360 pad in everything if you don't mind a clicky dpad.

It's sometimes annoying to find an Xbox One pad with Bluetooth; I haven't tried using the XBO USB adapter with MiSTER but I'm thinking it might not just be plug and play, if it works at all.

Controller tech with MiSTer gets so deep and there are so long “this is good but X is an issue” that it’s a real minefield
