That sounds really nice too. Don't know much about them though :S (Does a brief browse through emulator-zone.) Do most emulator programs require having control devices beyond the mouse and keyboard? (I.E. joystick, and other devices). Do you know if there are emulators (or maybe plug-ins) that can make do with just a mouse and keyboard? If it's a console that doesn't use analog, then there's really no need for controller. Otherwise, yes, you need a controller.
