can this work on Windows 8 and is this only intended to be used for the SNES emulator or can I play other games I have on my pc via Steam?

I can confirm that it works on windows 8, and if you use a program like joy to key you can very easily make it work with steam. My only complaint is that one of the buttons began sticking after only a few hours.

This works fine for me in windows 8. Just plug and play. I used it to play a lot of games on stream like La-Mulana. Many games should support it.

If you have an old SNES controler, then that will only work with the SNES setup.

I believe there were some offline games on it but I can't be sure. It does support Steam.

Yes it will work on Steam providing that the game have support for controllers. For games that is on Steam which do not have controller support you can use an emulator like Pinnacle Game Profiler. You can go there website at "pinnaclegameprofiler.com" and download a thirty days full trial of the software to emulate games on Steam which do not have controller support. As to your second question...There is no dead-zone problem with this particular gaming device unless you bought it faulty or if it has taken a bad fall from you or someone else. One thing though as any other product, overtime as you put pressure on the analog sticks they will start to come of the dead-zone but that my be years from now or months from now depending on how often you use it for gaming. Sometimes lets say for e.g. a first person shooter game if you need to do some quick running or looking around and the tension in the game will have you putting pressure on the analog sticks, so that in itself will, after time throw off the dead-zone.

I am using it on Windows 8 Pro. I have been using it with no problems for a week now. You could always run it in compatability mode if you need too.

You should be able to run almost all of your games (that you have installed through Steam) on Windows 8.1. If you have any problems running them, you can just search up the issue on Google, and I am sure there will be someone out there that written up a solution to solve it.

It works on Windows 7 and 8.1, so if the game you are playing on Steam has support for a windows based controler then yes it will, but compatability in that case will depend on the specific game. If the controler is detected in windows (it is) then check on Steam on the right side of the games store page to see if it lists "Full controller support".

Yes, I can play it on Windows 8 with all the latest patches. If I remember correctly, tho', you need the origin libraries/app installed as well, but I could be wrong about that.

If you have 2 of these and you're not playing a game outside the emulator, yes. Otherwise, good luck even getting it to work.

I think it only works on Steam if you buy a game code. Though, if you buy a disk, it should work with whatever program you have.

In regards to steam, it is functional if the game supports generic controllers. Many steam games when they say controller support, they only mean XBOX 360 controller support. So it really depends on the game. For instance I played rogue legacy with a sega saturn adapter and SS controller, and it worked great. The game Fez however had a number of problems regsitering other controllers than an xbox 360 one.As far as not registering, I couldn't say. I am running x64 windows 7 which in terms of driver support is usually identical, and I had no problems just plugging it in and having it detected as USB Genesis controller or something like that under devices and printers.

To my knowledge, it only works to connect Wii Classic Controller style controllers to a computer via USB port. I don't make the product nor do I professionally test it. I'm mainly using it for emulation and other games I can get that will support it.
