I want a controller for Atari Games

[Glamisduner]

Micro-USB to Red Crystal Dualshock PS4 controller works for me, plugged into a usb hub thats in my front port

Example

When you say works, is it the analog sticks or the D-Pad that works? My Xbox 360 controller works, but the analog stick is terrible to use.

Guess we are still short on viable solutions?

Nothing yet that works well?

I have not heard of anything, the analog stick is no fun so I just don't play any of the games.

That's where I'm at. It's too bad Tesla, or some third party, doesn't offer a USB version of an Atari joystick - so we can enjoy it. Like you, I tried it using the screen and steering wheel and determined that this is more of a gimmick than a usable feature.

2048 via touch screen helps kill time. Asteroids is playable with analog for me though I would prefer to use the dpad.

I use an XBOX 1 controller and it works well enough to play asteroids but its a bit over sensitive for like missile command.

Anyone have a good experience with an PS4 controller?

My kid has one I'll try it out. It has a touch pad and I thought that might work for some games.

Great, thanks. Yes, I was thinking the dpad might work better for some games. Thanks for letting us know if it does!

So plugged in the PS4 controller and it seems to work fine but maybe a couple buttons are swapped left to right. I think the XBOX is more intuitive but that may just be me. We have a couple of XBOX Elite controllers and they are totally programmable with a PC so I think they are probably the best bet, you would have to dial in the settings on the computer. We have a couple, I will play with setting one up when I get time.

How do the dpad buttons do, vs the stick for controlling movement on the Teslatari games?

they don't appear to me to be active the touch screen didn't do anything either.

I plugged in my PS4 controller and nothing worked at all.

I just made a video on this subject last week with my Xbox One controller. I kind of expected that every single visitor to this forum would have subscribed to my channel and viewed this by now, along with my other recent Tesla charging and user interface videos.
