JourneySilvers Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 So I'm aware that you can get a dualsense working natively on the PS3, but with many caveats. The PS home button wont work and its iffy whether or not certain games will work with it. I would love to use my PS5 controller reliably with the PS3. Does anyone know of a proper adapter that would work? I was looking at the Mayflash Magic NS2 on Amazon but I'm not super familiar with using adapters. Can anyone vouch for it, or have a better solution? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncrocks1234 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Ive been using the mayflash magic-ns, it even has vibration support (only when wired though) but its very plug and play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm excited for it to come in ✌ I’m assuming you ended up getting this, so after using it for a year now what are your thoughts & would you recommend it? I’m currently down to a single DS3, but the triggers are so sensitive now that it makes playing certain games a nightmare as they tend to press themselves randomly. It’s so hard to find working Dualshock 3s now that I’m thinking another solution is in order… Since I am finally going to buy a PS5, I thought it might also be time to pick up one of these adapters with the hope I could use all of my controllers interchangeably between the 3 consoles. I’m mostly concerned with the PS3 though, and am looking for a way to use DS4/DualSense on PS3 with full functionality and wireless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love being able to play the PS3 with my DS4's 😎 They do occasionally disconnect, but generally you'd forget you're using an adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been looking at the Wingman XE2 and watching some reviews of the product and I think I’m definitely going to have to pick one up, it looks amazing! Just one question though - does the Wingman many driver installations or updates over time? I don’t really have a computer so anything that is pretty much plug & play out of the box is preferable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Overlord Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Does the Brook Wingman XE2 allow PS4/PS5 controllers to work with games like Max Payne 3 and MGS3? And if so how do the analog buttons function? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not loads, just plugged mine into the laptop and it downloaded the v1.5 firmware - I've no idea what it was on before, it doesn't show you. The only other time I'd plugged it in to the laptop that I can recall was when I first set it up in December 2022.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJimmonator Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Does the Brook Wingman XE (or XE2) support vibration wirelessly? I can't seem to find an answer for this anywhere. I am currently using the Mayflash Magic which only supports vibration when it's wired which is a bit restrictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if so how do the analog buttons function? I don't have Max Payne 3 so can't test.. I'm unfamiliar with Metal Gear Solid 3, but what can I test? I know the original adapter doesn't have pressure sensitive buttons (although I think it does with triggers and analogue?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a few threads on here regarding the issue of unofficial controllers It looks like analog buttons are required for the CQC. I know the PS4 controller doesn't have analog buttons (not sure about PS5), but I can imagine it causing a lot of problems if the adapter can't handle it.
