Controller Lag?

[Artiph]

Everyone was saying controllers make it easier to play, so I went to Wal-Mart and picked up a USB Controller. It works great offline, but when I play online, there's a .5 or so second lag on each move I make. This did not happen when I used my keyboard and it is really hindering me. Is there any way to get rid of this problem? Thanks in advance.

Its normal , everyone has delay

When I was on my keyboard, there was no delay, so, why does my controller delay?

there's delay on keyboard too; it's just easier to notice with the controller. try playing with keyboard offline and see the difference.

For less delay try Mupen64k.

Yeah, the delay is very annoying. Sometimes it doesn't even register button presses and it really messes you up (although I hear it's not as bad on Mupen).

I'm using Mupen, sometimes I get less delay on matches, I suppose it's the best I'm gonna get. Thanks guys, though it's harder to get a game going on Mupen because there's not as many users.

I find the best trick is to make friends, or ask the pros...

Find someone to play on Excellent connection type, or use /setdelay 1. It reduces the lag by a lot.

I don't understand why people don't all use excellent connection type. The default connection type on all the Japanese/Korean servers is excellent and there is considerably less button lag when you play on their servers.
