Controller compatibility?

[rogueapache]

I want to buy this fight stick:

do you guys think it will work with emulation station and retroarch?

Well it is fulfilled by amazon so you could always buy it and send it back if it doesn’t work. I would say yes it probably works but you will probably have to play around to see what buttons number each input is mapped to. You could always build your own fighstick and just map the button presses to keyboard inputs.

This is a more expensive route but would allow you to do your own controls:

I read some reviews and supposedly it works perfectly with mame so I think worst case I would have to write a config myself and I can handle that …. also thanks for the links I was planning to build my own arcade out of some lumber and new retro pie (32gb SD card and ALL the old retro games :D) and have two sets of joysticks and buttons! any advice on that?
