## What it is
OGX-Mini is C++ firmware for RP2040/RP2350 microcontrollers that emulates USB gamepads for multiple consoles, including the original Xbox, PS3, Nintendo Switch, and XInput devices. It supports a wide range of wired and Bluetooth controllers and includes a companion web app for configuring mappings and deadzones.

## Use cases
- use a modern controller on an original Xbox
- connect a PS5 DualSense to a Nintendo Switch
- use an Xbox controller on PS3
- emulate an XInput gamepad with a Raspberry Pi Pico
- configure controller mappings and deadzones via a web app
- use wireless Bluetooth controllers on retro consoles

## When to choose
- you want to use modern USB or Bluetooth controllers on legacy consoles like the original Xbox or PS3
- you have an RP2040/RP2350 board such as a Pi Pico and want gamepad emulation firmware
- you need configurable controller mappings and deadzones without reflashing

## When to avoid
- you need gamepad emulation on platforms not in the supported list
- you require fully polished Bluetooth support, which is still in early testing
- you use third-party controllers that change their VID/PID, which may not work correctly
