XBOX 360 Controller

I want to use a wireless XBOX 360 controller to play some Gamecube games but I don't know how. Some people say you have to use GCpad New and select it from the device drop down list but I don't know how to get my controller to show up there. I just want my Dolphin to be perfect! Smile

In your device list, you should have an "XInput/0/Gamepad" entry when your 360 controller is attached.

Here's a screenshot of the config people often use with 360 controllers:

To use wireless 360 controllers on a computer you will need the wireless gaming receiver.

but it says they no longer sell them. Sad

Is there a program that detects it?

Programs are not magic, they can not "detect" your gamepad without the wireless receiver. ;P

If it's true that they no longer sell them you will have to buy one on the internet I guess.

Guess I'll just find a wire for my controller, probably a lot easier. Smile

I've seen wireless receivers on Ebay.
