How do I Use Wii/Xbox Controllers For My Computer Game?

Q. Hiya. I'm using a downloaded game that my friend linked for me. It's fun, but I can't quite get the controls to flow like I'd want it to. I heard you could use an Xbox 360 controller by plugging in the charger to the URB port in your computer. I did that, and it asked to download some new software. I did that, then nothing else happened after that. If it would be any easier, I also have a "Wii classic controller" I can use. I don't know how to set my game to make it usable for my controllers. Here's a screenie of what I'm using.

Typo: USB Port. I feel like an idiot. ._.

A. You cannot plug in a wireless 360 controller into a computer with its charger cable. Your gunna have to buy this: http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-Wireless-Gaming-Receiver-Windows-Pc/dp/B000HZFCT2
You can find those around best buy and ect. Also, wired 360 controllers DO work with their USB cable plugged in a comp. If you have one of those laying around then that will fix your problem.

As for the Wii Classic controller. Your gunna need a wireless bluetooth adapter. Search up "Connecting the wii mote to computer" or something like that on google or youtube. Im not sure about Wii Classic Controller working with those techniques, but I do know that the wiimote can work as a pc controller(and pointer).

Truthfully, you should probably just buy a new usb controller or get used to your mouse and keyboard. You may just save up more money doing that.

PS: don't forget that Google is your friend. Searching up tutorials on how to do this stuff and what controllers you could buy helps alot.


How do I get my Xbox 360 Controller to work for my computer games?
Q. I plug the xbox 360 controller up but its not working

A. If you have a wired controller and a newer windows PC, it should work immediately. If you have an older PC (prior to Windows XP) you may have to download the xbox360 wired controller drivers from the Microsoft website.

if you have a wired controller and a plug'n'charge kit IT WILL NOT WORK.

All xbox 360 wireless controller require the Microsoft USB gaming receiver to connect the controller to the computer. When a wireless controller is used with the charge and play kit, it only charges the battery, it does not provide any data connection to computer whatsoever and cannot be altered to do so.

If you have a wireless controller you need this:

On the wireless receiver you also will need to install the software it comes with to allow the wireless controller to function.

These tips only work on the official Microsoft controllers. If you have a 3rd party controller, you may not be able to do it at all.

I have my wireless controller connected to my Mac (which is much harder to do being as Apple and Microsoft do not play nice) and use it almost everyday to play games.
