ZSNES/NES/N64 Emulator Compatibility: Can anyone who has used this with old gen system emulators post about their experience using this with those progs?

The controller works with pretty much any emu you use. i had a little trouble getting kega fusion to recognize it, but after switching the controller to direct input and restarting the emulator, it finally worked p.s., if you haven't bought the controller yet, don't. it's plagued with latency and connection issues. don't be convinced by all the 5 star reviews on this site. do some forum research on google and you'll know what im talking about. as long as you're directly in front of the reciever, no more than 6 feet away, with absolutely no objects in the line of sight between controller and receiver, you'll be fine.

I actually haven't tried that out, I can test it out in a bit. Update: I have tested it on Ubuntu 12.04. Nothing extra to do for the controller or adapter to be detected. I gave it a go on the zsnes emulator and configured the inputs and it worked out fine for every button. Played Super Mario World on it and everything responded like it would when I'm using windows. I have yet to try other games/programs on Ubuntu.

Yes you can . You can buy the reproductions here on Amazon or if you have the original controllers they are the same design. They will fit this system I have one . I also have another retro bit that looks like the super NES system you can use the original SNES or the NES controllers on that , and the games from both systems . They work very well play them all the time .

I searched on eBay, and they offer a refurbished 3.5" floppy drive replacement for what you have. I am saying that the emulator should be compatible for replacement, but can't say for sure. Because, thinking back to my computer days, the earlier drives worked with 750K floppy disks, and then later ones was for 1.44 meg also. So, can't recall if the former or later versions was pin compatible with each other. In computer years, that is a very long time ago. You need to ask the seller how many pins is on his drive emulator, and then check what you have. If you are not a computer savvy person, take your device to most any computer shop for assistance.

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.

well an emulator is to mimick a console. I know controllers work. so I would assume it would work. but if not you can get it to work with a 3rd party software like joy2pad or something.

I can not answer for all the tablets or all the different versions of Android OS's, but I have tested it on my Nexus 7 tablet with an OTG and yes, it did work, I have only tried it with a few emulators and in most cases the D-pad worked but I had to configure the ABXY buttons to get them to work. I have used this adapter in windows and on my Macbook pro with no problems, it was worth buying! I hope this has helped. Edited 6/17/2014 After replying to this question, I got to thinking more about this, and I decided to try another experiment, I tried a couple of different usb game controllers, one was a wired xbox 360 controller and the other a cheap wired microsoft windows game controller, I could not get the 360 controller to work, I think because it wanted to pair with the tablet first before you can use it and the android os does not know how to pair like that, but the windows controller worked, so I believe you can use any windows usb wired game controller with just the otg and not need the snes adapter, if you prefer to use the snes pad you could just get one already wired for usb and save the money you would spend on a adapter. I only bought this adapter because I had a number of snes game pads laying around.

I have only used Super GNES through the Google Play Store and it works great. I would make sure that the emulator application you are planning to use supports the Moga platform before you purchase it.

i believe so, i ran it on 7, but have heard that all the 8 & 8.1 versions can run in an emulator mode for older versions if you need...it may run fine as is. have fun, it was a good game.

If you want to use Nes, SNES, gameboy, etc Emulators, there is a a "Moga Universal Driver" you can find on the Google playstore that works perfectly for that. just keep in mind though that the games that are "built in" to work with the controller (Moga Pivot) use separate drivers. Open and enable "Moga Universal Driver" when you want to use your emulators, and open and enable "Moga Pivot" otherwise.

No problems with Gens, Project64, VisualBoyAdvance, Nester, Nestopia, or Fusion364.The problems I've run into with ePSXe seem to be due to the emulator. For the games where the controller works, there are no problems.I have not run into the latency issues, but I have run into reception problems when there is a high-powered device plugged into the hub.

Yeah absolutely it will. I use it in my original GBA, my Japanese GBA (I don't think they are region locked BTW), and my GBA Micro. I haven't tested it in a GBA SP but all indications are that it works fine in them as well (tons of people in the forums have confirmed this). Only issue to watch for is about 15-20 have problems with the slower SRAM in the SuperCard (Doom 1&2, Yoshie's island, Tony Hawk 3 etc.)The slowdown in those titles is noticeable though not necessarily game breaking. If those are some of the games you would like to play you may want to invest in the EZ Flash IV or the EZ Flash V Fat Version, both of those have full speed memory but finding them can be tricky.

Well it will work with Wii with the purchase of component cables, with the Nintendo 64m, and SNES with the purchase o S-Video cables, as for the NES I'm afraid it's incompatible.

Yes it works great hooked up to a usb otg cable on both my galaxy s3 and my rca walmart black friday tablet both running android 4.2+. With the gamepad, cheap tablet, and stand, it makes for a great snes/nes/gb portable emulation system. Fantastic Controller. Needs no drivers for any OS i've tried so far.

Should work fine. I had no issue using this with my Xbox, PS2 and other retro gaming systems.

Yes. I've played several modern games using the X-mode and older emulators in D-mode. Both work without any issues.
