Hello chums and chumettes.

Is there such a thing as a wireless receiver for the PC so that I can use my supah bonzo Xbox 360 controller for WinUAE and stuff? I've tried Dealextreme, but their search engine is cacky pants.

Yup deffo works. I like the wired one though, doesnt need charging and I have a filthy habit of leaving stuff off the chargers ?:|

all at 1p plus 4.99 p&p

I have one and the only difficulty is that you can only sync the pad to one source at a time so if you only have one pad you would need to re sync each time you switched from your PC to your Xbox.

If you have 2 pads for occasional multiplayer then you can sync one for pc / one for xbox and just re-sync when needed.

I asked this question a while back and you fuck heads all said noooooooooooo you've got to get the wired one.

I pretty sure you did anyway.

A while ago that was probably accurate.

Are you sure you didn't just ask if you could use the play and charge kit?

Maybe

i've bought a wired one for 25€. A wireless receiver is almost as much as that.

I never liked Zipstick and its clones. I still use my Megastar (the transparent one with orange buttons) for my Amiga needs. Bought the stellaradapter from Atariage some years ago.
