Retropie/Recalbox - Preferred Controller & Rom Source?
Adding Recalbox onto my new Pi4. For anything more than NES/SNES, I imagine a dedicated controller would be preferred.

What do you guys prefer? A quick google shows a lot of preference for the PS4 remote as an all-around option.

Eta: Good source for roms?

The Retropie I tried at a buddy's house used an Xbox One controller. It worked well.

On a whim, plugged in a PS3 remote & it seems to work well. Haven't tried it without the cord yet.

I currently use a 15 year old USB Microsoft Sidewinder controller and it works great.
Only thin that would make it better is if it were wireless.

I have an XBOX One so I am going to try that because I already have the remote.

Legal?
I have plenty of NES ROMs if you need some.
