    It's a real puzzle, a game outside a game.

    WHAT is the best configuration to have a dual shock function as an N64 Pad?

    OK........

    Depends on the game really. Most games that use the c button for an item or camera, map c buttons to right analogue, left analogue for analogue, dpad on dpad, b buton square, a button x., r=r1, z=r2, and l=l1

    A = Cross
    B = Square
    C up = Triangle
    C down = circile
    C left = L1
    C right = R1

    R = R2
    Z = L2
    L = Select or L3
    Start = Start
    Dpad = Dpad
    Stick = Stick

    Although be warned that the only good modern controller to replace a nintendo 64 controller, mainly the feel of the thumbstick, is the XBOX360 controller (no the gamecube controller does a terrible job at mimicking an n64 pad and the Classic controller is fucking useless for 3D games)

    I say the above with years of experience using a dual shock on the PC, which was a compromise I admit, seeing that all other controllers at the time were pure crap and un-standard to my console-trained hands. The Dual Shock got the boot the moment the 360's wired controller appeared and has been so since then.

    Hm, I guess I should get some 360 wired pads, the PS2 converters are mainly for my arcade sticks, But I use the dual shocks for everything that isnt arcade.

    You know you trust me more than yourself, and if you don't you should, so go out and buy a 360 wired controller or else :p
