I have 2 Raspberry Pi with RetroPie installed.

On my work room Pi I have recently been using a pair of PS4 controllers, over Bluetooth. They work quite well, and so far are my preferred controller. (I will post the auto config file and a how to when I get a chance.)

On the Pi in the living room I’m using a pair of PS3 controllers again over Bluetooth.

Previously had Xbox 360 Wireless controllers, which seemed to cause things to run a little slower.

I also have setup Original NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and PS2 controllers connected via a GPIO adapter. While kind of cool using original controllers, the nostalgia for wired controllers that hurt your thumbs wore off fast. Its also not an easy or cheap setup to duplicate if you plan on doing multiple builds.
