Wireless Game Controllers
For a while now I've been happily using my wireless Logitech rumble pads on PC for emulated retro-action:
Very nice, I like Sony-type controllers... ...now, I seem to spend more & more time using my little TC1100 tablet PC - despite only having a 1ghz CPU it has got an nVidia chipset in it so is more than up to running all the 'classic' emulators I can throw at it along with console emulation up to Dreamcast... ...trouble is I don't really want a USB-IR receiver hanging out the side of it, especially when it's got IR & Bluetooth built in - a little googling is called for: -There seem to be no IR joypads - true? -Some Bluetooth ones, but do any work under 'doze..? Examples: PS3 Bluetooth Controller - On fleaBay. Nice, a bit big for carrying with a laptop, but will it work with a PC? Zeemote - Now, I really like the look of this: Kind-of reminds me of my beloved BUG joystick, and would make for a good travelling companion but, really, it's been designed for smart-phones, will it work..? Does anyone have any experience with such devices? Any other good examples that you've noted? Do they work with a PC..? Ok, so I'm a bit weird... |
