Nintendo is apparently allergic to money. After creating an instant and profitable hit with the NES Classic, the company decided to end production of the cheap little emulation machine just a few months after its introduction. No matter: tech savvy Nintendo fans who couldn’t get a hold of one (or didn’t want to line the pockets of scalpers) have other options.
任天堂显然对金钱过敏 。 在用NES Classic创造了立即且可获利的成功之后,该公司决定在推出这款价格低廉的小型仿真机后几个月就停止生产。 没关系:精通技术的任天堂迷们无法拥有一个(或者不想在黄牛的口袋里排队) 还有其他选择 。
But one thing that’s not so easy to replicate is the feel of an authentic Nintendo controller. That’s where third party manufacturers come in, eagerly sating our need for classic console controls in both wired USB and wireless forms. Here are the best options for those who prefer to roll their own nostalgia.
但是,很难复制的一件事是真正的Nintendo控制器的感觉。 这就是第三方制造商进入的地方,它急切地需要我们对有线USB和无线形式的经典控制台控件的需求。 对于那些更喜欢怀旧的人来说,这是最佳选择。
任天堂娱乐系统(NES)控制器 (Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Controllers)
The original Nintendo Entertainment System (or Famicom, if you’re a stickler for the Japanese version) doesn’t have the most ergonomic controller design, but the little rectangle has a lasting appeal all its own. Unfortunately, the NES gamepad is so simple that the market seems to be flooded with cheap, low-quality replicas, most of which have poor production and serious control issues. If you want the most nostalgic, square, corners-jutting-into-your-palms NES controller, this is the best one we’ve used.
原始的Nintendo Entertainment System(或Famicom,如果您是日语版本的stickler)没有最符合人体工程学的控制器设计,但是这个小矩形具有其自身的持久吸引力。 不幸的是,NES游戏手柄是如此简单,以至于市场上似乎充斥着廉价,低质量的复制品,其中大多数复制品生产不佳且存在严重的控制问题。 如果您想要最怀旧,方形,四角突出的NES控制器, 这是我们使用的最好的 NES控制器。
However, my favorite wired option is this Retro-Link USB model. And before you cry foul on the Super NES-style bone shape, here’s a bit of video game history for you: years into its original production, Nintendo released a redesigned controller affectionately known as the “dog bone.” This updated two-button layout seems to have informed the design for the next console. Another well-regarded alternative is the iBuffalo USB 8-Button Game Pad. This model cheats a bit with “extra” control buttons, but it keeps the Japanese Famicom shape and color scheme with a more dependable build than the more “retro” USB options.
但是,我最喜欢的有线选项是Retro-Link USB型号 。 在您对Super NES风格的骨骼形状犯规之前,这里有一些视频游戏的历史记录:任天堂在其最初的生产中已经发布了数年,其重新设计的控制器被亲切地称为“狗骨头”。 更新后的两键布局似乎已经为下一个控制台的设计提供了信息。 另一个广受好评的替代产品是iBuffalo USB 8键游戏手柄 。 该型号带有“额外”的控制按钮,有点作弊,但是与“更复古”的USB选项相比,它保持了日本Famicom的形状和配色方案更加可靠。
For wireless fans, the relatively new 8BitDo (get it?) NES30 controller is one of the best Bluetooth pads around. Two extra face buttons plus squared-off shoulder buttons mean that technically this is a Super NES configuration, but the aesthetics are more or less perfect, and a few more control options never hurt anyone.
对于无线风扇而言,相对较新的8BitDo( 懂吗?) NES30控制器是周围最好的蓝牙键盘之一。 两个额外的面部按钮加上方形的肩部按钮在技术上意味着这是Super NES的配置,但是外观或多或少是完美的,并且更多控制选项从未伤害任何人。
Atari 2600控制器 (Atari 2600 Controllers)
The original joystick-plus-button combo is hard to beat for classic games like Pac-Man and Galaga. Unfortunately, it looks like that simplicity has made the classic Atari controller design prone to the same quality control issues as the two-button NES pad. USB reproductions all seem to be plagued with shoddy builds and substandard plastics. I’d recommend either tossing authenticity out the window and using another controller on this list, or hunting for an original controller and an adapter (which we’ll talk about in a bit).
原始的游戏杆加按钮组合在《吃豆人》和《加拉加》等经典游戏中很难被击败。 不幸的是,看起来简单性使经典的Atari控制器设计易于出现与两键式NES键盘相同的质量控制问题。 USB复制品似乎都被伪劣产品和不合格的塑料所困扰。 我建议要么将真实性扔出窗外,然后使用此列表中的另一个控制器,要么寻找原始的控制器和适配器(我们将在稍后讨论)。
超级任天堂(SNES)控制器 (Super Nintendo (SNES) Controllers)
For SNES-style controls on a PC, the iBuffalo Classic USB Gamepad is the gold standard. They’ve been selling this design forever, and why not—it perfectly emulates the much-loved shape and button placement of the curvy Super NES controller. The design also includes a turbo button, for when you’d like to cheat at Street Fighter.
对于PC上的SNES风格的控件, iBuffalo Classic USB游戏手柄是金标准。 他们一直在销售这种设计,为什么不呢?它完美地模仿了弯曲的Super NES控制器广受欢迎的形状和按钮位置。 该设计还包括一个加速按钮,适合您在Street Fighter中作弊的时候使用。
For a wireless model, once again 8BitDo seems to be at the forefront of Bluetooth-flavored nostalgia. The SNES30 is essentially the same thing as the NES30 in a more period-accurate plastic case, with options available in both the Super Famicom color scheme and the purple-tinted American SNES model. Even the manufacturer logo is printed to match Nintendo’s original—a nice touch.
对于无线型号,8BitDo似乎再次成为蓝牙怀旧风格的最前沿。 SNES30在本质上更精确的塑料外壳中与NES30基本相同,Super Famicom配色方案和紫色SNES型号均提供选件。 甚至印有制造商徽标,也要与任天堂的原始徽标相匹配-很好。
SEGA Genesis控制器 (SEGA Genesis Controllers)
The perennial also-ran still has its fans, and there’s an option for the Genesis faithful. The alternate six button controller was the favorite of fighting game aficionados, and Hyperkin’s USB replica is the best option around. Unfortunately the Genesis hasn’t had the same lasting influence as Nintendo’s early consoles, and there doesn’t seem to be a quality option for the original three button design or a wireless alternative.
多年生植物也仍然有它的粉丝,而创世纪忠实者有一个选择。 备用的六个按钮控制器是格斗游戏爱好者的最爱,而Hyperkin的USB复制品是最好的选择。 不幸的是,《创世纪》没有像任天堂的早期游戏机那样具有持久的影响力,而且对于原始的三键设计或无线替代方案似乎没有质量选择。
PlayStation控制器 (PlayStation Controllers)
The PlayStation DualShock controller design was a paradigm shift for video games that’s still more or less intact in today’s controller designs. Oddly, there doesn’t seem to be a high-quality replica of the original version in USB flavor (and there’s no trace of the very first model, sans thumbsticks). The older Logitech F310 design emulates the button layout with quality components, and it comes in wireless with the F710 upgrade. But if you want a more first-party feel, you might as well just buy the Bluetooth-equipped PS3 controller and install some third-party driver software. It works with the Raspberry Pi, too.
PlayStation DualShock控制器设计是视频游戏的典范转变,在当今的控制器设计中或多或少都完好无损。 奇怪的是,似乎没有USB风格的原始版本的高质量复制品(并且没有第一个型号的痕迹,没有指套)。 罗技(Logitech)F310的较早设计模仿了带有优质组件的按钮布局,并且在F710升级后以无线方式提供。 但是,如果您想拥有更多的第一方感觉,不妨购买配备蓝牙的PS3控制器并安装一些第三方驱动程序软件 。 它也可以与Raspberry Pi一起使用 。
Nintendo 64控制器 (Nintendo 64 Controllers)
The N64’s odd tri-handled controller isn’t exactly well-regarded except by Mario 64 players, but Nintendo’s nostalgia power is strong, and there are replicas out there. The Retro-Link USB replica model does an admiral job of recreating the N64’s basic design, and again 8BitDo has released a Bluetooth version. But there’s a big fat catch: no replica controller has truly recreated the same feel of the original controller’s analog stick. Even original controllers with replacement sticks are not the same—your only hope for a truly authentic, quality experience is to find an original controller with its original stick, that isn’t worn to hell, and use an adapter. Sadly, those are rather hard to come by.
除了Mario 64播放器之外,N64的奇特三把手控制器并不十分受重视,但是Nintendo的怀旧力量很强,并且那里有复制品。 Retro-Link USB复制模型在重建N64的基本设计上做了出色的工作,而8BitDo再次发布了蓝牙版本 。 但是有一个很大的难题:没有一个复制控制器能够真正地重现原始控制器模拟棒的感觉。 即使是带有替换杆的原始控制器也不一样,您想要获得真正真实,优质的体验的唯一希望就是找到一个没有磨损的带有原始杆的原始控制器,然后使用适配器 。 可悲的是,这些很难实现。
If you’re willing to give up authenticity, you might find that you have a better experience—joystick technology has come a long way since the N64, and modern controllers feel much smoother on your thumbs. Enterprising users can try installing this GameCube-style stick designed for the N64 controller.
如果您愿意放弃真实性,您可能会发现自己有更好的体验-自N64以来,操纵杆技术已经走了很长一段路,现代控制器用您的拇指感觉更顺畅。 进取的用户可以尝试安装专为N64控制器设计的GameCube风格的手柄 。
If you aren’t comfortable with that, you’ll need to look at other options. You’ll miss out on the same button layout (few controllers have the six-button layout on the right side), but we’ve found that original Xbox controllers with USB adapters and the XBCD drivers work well with Nintendo 64 emulators. An Xbox 360 or One controller will work in a pinch, but the original Xbox controller is best, since its triggers are buttons, not axes, which tends to work better with some games.
如果您对此不满意,则需要考虑其他选择。 您会错过相同的按钮布局(很少有控制器在右侧具有六个按钮的布局),但是我们发现带有USB适配器和XBCD驱动程序的原始Xbox控制器与Nintendo 64仿真器可以很好地结合使用。 Xbox 360或One控制器将在紧急情况下工作,但原始的Xbox控制器是最好的,因为它的触发器是按钮而不是轴,这在某些游戏中通常会更好地工作。
Dreamcast,GameCube,PS2和更高版本的控制台 (Dreamcast, GameCube, PS2, and Later Consoles)
By the time the SEGA Dreamcast rolled around (and then rolled over), the modern thumbstick/face button/trigger button layout was more or less cemented into gamer culture. If you’re emulating any of the 2000-era or later consoles, you’ll probably do just fine with something like the Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller, both of which have first-party USB adapters for easy use on a PC. The older 360 wired controller works fine in Windows and on a Raspberry Pi, and the latest Xbox One controller revision also comes with Bluetooth.
到SEGA Dreamcast滚来滚去(然后翻过来)时,现代的指尖/面部按钮/触发按钮布局或多或少地融入了游戏玩家的文化。 如果您要模拟2000或更高版本的任何控制台,则可能会对Xbox 360或Xbox One控制器等设备做得很好,因为它们都具有易于在PC上使用的第一方USB适配器 。 较旧的360有线控制器可在Windows和Raspberry Pi上正常运行,而最新的Xbox One控制器版本也随附了蓝牙。
If you’re a stickler for authenticity, you can also use the aforementioned PS3 DualShock 3 controller with Bluetooth, and the Bluetooth connection on both the Wii Remote and the Wii U Pro controller mean they can be used with a PC or Raspberry Pi with only limited setup needed. The more modern PS4 controller, with its built-in trackpad doubling as a handy mouse, can be used with an official adapter or as a generic Bluetooth control pad.
如果您是真实性的忠实拥护者,还可以将上述PS3 DualShock 3控制器与蓝牙一起使用,并且Wii Remote和Wii U Pro控制器上的蓝牙连接意味着它们只能与PC或Raspberry Pi一起使用需要有限的设置。 更为现代的PS4控制器 ,其内置触控板可作为便携式鼠标加倍,可与官方适配器或通用蓝牙控制板一起使用。
或者:对原始控制器使用适配器 (Alternatively: Use Adapters for the Original Controllers)
If you insist on absolute accuracy for your retro and emulated games, only the real McCoy will do. None of the original controllers for classic consoles have a USB connection (since many of them predate the Universal Serial Bus standard), but enterprising vendors offer USB adapters for basically every popular console ever made. Here’s one for your GameCube Wavebirds, plus original PlayStation and that giant first-gen Xbox controller (AKA “The Duke”). Here’s another for that tricky Atari controller. Do a quick search for almost any classic console plus “USB adapter” and you’ll probably find an inexpensive solution.
如果您坚持复古和模拟游戏的绝对准确性,那么只有真正的McCoy才能做到。 经典控制台的原始控制器都没有USB连接(因为许多控制器早于通用串行总线标准),但是进取的供应商基本上为每个流行的控制台都提供了USB适配器。 这是供您的GameCube Wavebirds使用的设备 ,还有原始的PlayStation和该大型第一代Xbox控制器(又称“公爵”)。 这是另一个棘手的Atari控制器 。 快速搜索几乎所有经典控制台以及“ USB适配器”,您可能会找到一种便宜的解决方案。
