Can this gamepad play emulators?

Don't see why it wouldn't. I have one, and use it with Project 64, ZSnes, ROCKnes, Kega Fusion, Chanka, and others all the time with no problems. It's d-pad is ok for a standard cross type. But I have an older Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Power 3, and I think it's dpad is more comfortable. Lots of luck finding one though--like I said, they're older gamepads, and getting hard to find now.

I have not personally tried the battery mod but I have always been in the range of a power plug when I am using my Gamepad. As for emulation capability the Gamepad is quite capable of running the Emulators that you mentioned without any problems. Aside from the less than ideal set up of the controls the biggest issue that I had with my Gamepad was the official firmware that it shipped with; I could neither gain root_access or uninstall preinstalled applications. After searching around for a functional custom rom I settled on SigmaxJFG. Once you install the custom rom everything just works better and faster.

I don't know if that game supports the classic controller, but I CAN say that this particular knock off won't work at all. DO NOT BUY THIS CHEAP KNOCK OFF. PAY MORE FOR AN OFFICIAL CONTROLLER.

Should be a switch on the back for Xinput and DirectX input. Make sure it's on Xinput and it should work. "jstest-gtk" (sudo apt-get install jstest-gtk) is a program that will allow you to calibrate a Game pad, it's pretty much a must have for all Game pads and can be acquired from the Ubuntu software center also, if you use that OS.

If your able to use any kind of controller for that game, which I'm almost sure of it, then yes this would work. Has worked for every game/emulator I have tried so far. It will recognize it as a connected controller/joystick device. It works great.

This controller is pretty much a plug n play controller, depending on what you want it for.. If you're gonna use it for a SNES or NES emulator, it will work perfectly as it's just to plug in, set controls and you're done, just like a regular gamepad. I use Windows 7 myself, but as it's plug n play, it will most probably work for Windows 8 OS too.

You can install a driver on Mayflash's website, and the controllers will show up in Windows Devices. So far, I've used it with Dolphin and some Steam games have been able to utilize it.

No. Even though it supports it you can play it with just a regular controller.

Yes. Go to http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/gamepad-f310?crid=411&osid;=14&bit;=64 for the controller, click downloads in blue, and underneath the controller image you will be able to choose windows 8 (32 or 64 bit) for the drivers. I'm sure they are on the cd provided too. If not, you can just get them off the site.

This controller is most likely a DirectInput device. It should work on any game that accepts DirectInput.Many developers have adopted Xinput since the release of the Xbox 360, so it will not work directly on a game that requires an Xbox controller, but there are programs like X360ce which can emulate an Xbox controller.

Your game/emulator/program usually will have controller options on the settings/options menus. Just look for them and select the controller or map them yourself.

depends on the operating system you're using AND the game itself. You may want to go to the Doom forum and see what pad works with it, and your OP

It works on all NES emulators, just make sure you set up the controller before you select a game or it won't read it's use.

I use this to play "Fifa" and "Pro Evolutio. ,,n Soccer" only. I don't now if it can play retro games.

it should it reads in windows as a generic usb game controller. there are no drivers for this because windows built in drivers work for this.

Yes, it does work, it doesn't care what controller you're using, you just set up the controls through your emulator and play. No special configuring.

Sorry for the late answer, I'm sure you've decided by now whether it's what you need, but for future reference (since some of these comments are really vague), the d pad and buttons feel and play really well with retro games. Obviously, you can't plug it into a retro console, but I've had solid experiences with this controller when playing on emulators.
