3 I have a couple of these old generic usb PlayStation 1/2 DualShock style controllers I picked up years ago, still going strong (mostly). USB identifies as [["GreenAsia Inc. MaxFire Blaze 2">>https://www.google.com/search?q="GreenAsia+Inc.+MaxFire+Blaze2"]], but lots of clone controllers use roughly the same internals I think. Unfortunately mine are missing some now-fashionable controller buttons (like menu/guide) and features, but they're alright.

7 If you want to remap this controller with [[xboxdrv>>https://xboxdrv.gitlab.io/]] to pseudo-xbox360 for compatibility with certain games on Linux, well the following works nicely for me. Other controllers may need different mappings, hopefully obviously. You can fine more generic instructions on e.g. the [[Arch Wiki>>https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gamepad#Mimic_Xbox_360_controller_with_other_controllers]]
