The standard Playstation 3 controller. It has a very good d-pad which is something that's hard to find nowadays. Very useful for emulating older consoles.
 +
 
 +
===Features===
 +
 
 +
*Very good d-pad
 +
 
 +
*10-bit precision analog sticks, pressure sensitive buttons
 +
 
 +
*wired or wireless modes with a Bluetooth adapter.
 +
==Using on a PC==
 +
 
 +
Previous DualShock controllers required a special adapter to work. However, the Dual Shock 3 can connect via USB to a PC without an adapter and only requires special software to work on a PC.
 +
 
 +
===Windows===
 +
 
 +
Use the new [[XInput Wrapper SCP]]. Do not use [[MotioninJoy]] if you can.
 +
 
 +
===Linux===
 +
 
 +
On Linux, [http://qtsixa.sourceforge.net/ QtSixA] is available but [http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/ xboxdrv], although it doesn't include a GUI, is a much more active project; use it if you run into problems.
 +
 
 +
===Troubleshooting===
 +
====The controller is detected but input doesn't work====
 +
Try the following steps:
 +
 
 +
# Close the emulator and stop/close the DS3 software you are using
 +
# Disconnect your controller and wait for its LEDs to turn off or begin blinking slowly
 +
# Connect it back and press the PS button
 +
# Run the controller software
 +
# Run the emulator
 +
