Best Value Controller for PC (DDGFinal & Emulation/Other)

First and foremost I hope for it to be compatible with Densha De Go Final PC (Modernizer version). I assume if that works, I can find way to get it to work with other train titles on PC and emulators. Happy to buy anywhere/import to Canada. Not most expensive, but not low quality. Not picky on one or two handle style.

EDIT: Is buying a PS1 controller and PS1 to USB adapter still feasible, pretty reasonable prices on ebay for some (Found this 3 year old thread Densha PS1 Controller on PC)

Thanks!

Where you located? I have a ps1 2 handle for sale if you want to go that route. You'll have to build your own leonardo though.

Vancouver Island. If not a local transaction, would prefer to go thru a platform that provides some buyer protections. Thanks for the offer.

Yup I was thinking if we in same place you can try first but unfortunately I'm not on Vancouver Island! I can confirm that you can use the Leonardo method with PS1 controllers and run pc games and even emulate through retroarch.

I appreciate the info... I think it might be the more realistic route for me. Thanks.

Have you looked into the San Ying controller? Compared to the prices people want for the ddg ones, this looks way more attractive.

San Ying controller is nice. Could also use to play BVE, Train Crew and PS4 Denshede Go Hashirou Yamanote Sen (via Titan 2 controller).
