Why all the complication?
All I did was get a logitech controller and hook up my computer to my tv.
Your solution is a lot cooler, but why?

Umm...SERIOUSLY, you do realize there is official software made by Microsoft so you can hook up a wired Xbox 360 controler to your computer and it works, and said software also works with wired PS3 controlers too for some reason, there's no need to emulate it with things that map controler buttons to keyboard keys like some programs do which is what I assume you mean by emulate.

Yeah, I just dl'd some software that does just that. Didn't have to map anything. Just plugged in the PS3 controller and BAM, shenanigans abound.

I get jumped on for making a new thread when I didn't post in an existing thread because I didn't want to use spoiler tags.

Then I get jumped on for saying that someone didn't know about something (Flashcarts for the 3DS) and I gt called a superdick about it.

Ugh.

So now I'm being called a passive dick for the entire time I've been there. I think that guys is seriously confused.

Wait... this happened where?

on some other site. it's from a guy who claims he doesn't hate me, yet attacks me whever he can get the chance.

It was really enjoyable though, but it had a lot of no-no words that I as an american youth was ashamed to hear.

Do you not go to school or something?

It's Saturday and I have off...

I was referring to your apparent sensitive nature towards "no-no words"

I learned out of swearing once. Then it kinda came back. Now I'm desperately trying not to do it all the time.

My brain is poop!

Yeah, I should probably not swear as much either. I kinda realized how much I just swear without even thinking about it after one bus ride home from school a couple days ago, I got off the bus and was talking to my friend the entire time and realized I probably swore at least 20 times within the 20 minutes that it takes to get to my stop.

What the fuck is this, why do we all of a sudden have Japanese adverting spammers on this site.

Sorry, it's been dealt with now.

@LoneWanderer
Pics incoming!? Big Grin

Yes. There will be pics. I just need to decide if I want to wait until the end to take them. I could always take video of it. I dunno yet.

Let's talk about something more important. Like politics, religion, abortion, health care, cancer, breast cancer, homosexual marriage, heterosexual marriage, civil unions, science, technology, business, and the world of tomorrow.

Psh. Name one time in the ENTIRE history of the world that any of these subjects didn't have an intelligent, respectful debate among them?
