Just wirelessly connect via Bluetooth or plug it in with a USB cable. PlayStation 1 and 2 (DualShock 1 and 2)Sony’s PS1 and PS2 controllers are older and don’t use USB.
You can get, but it’s probably best to pick up a DualShock 3, as it’s almost entirely the same but with wireless and USB support. Xbox OneWindows is supported fully out of the box, seeing as this is Microsoft’s flagship controller. Just plug and play, or connect over Bluetooth. You can even if you’re using Windows 10.Macs support Xbox One controllers wirelessly without anything extra, but you’ll need extra software if you want to plug your controller in via USB.

System-wide use is technically supported, but we heavily recommend finding a new controller. MacOS Sierra broke support for the only driver, Wjoy, but it was updated on a new. However, the current release doesn’t work either, so you’ll have to build the latest commit from source in Xcode, update a bunch of build targets, fix a few errors, sign it with an Apple developer account, and then after all that you have to boot into Recovery Mode and to install it. Only then can you properly connect the controller. GameCube ControllersYou’ll need an adapter of course, but Windows and Mac should be supported by default through HID. Support may vary though depending on the adapter you get.
You can get an one, but the seems to work fine for half the price. This adapter has a switch so you can use it on PC as well as console, which will turn it into an HID device rather than a proprietary console only one.
Dolphin can communicate with it directly, though, and will support the Wii U mode, which can fix some bugs with the additional ports.Note that macOS’s HID implementation overrides Dolphin’s direct communication with the device, so it doesn’t support having multiple controllers plugged in. There is, but it may not work with every adapter. It does involve, though admittedly just for kext extensions, which is a little safer.
