Using N64 controller as a super mouse

So I was thinking, I hate switching between my controller, mouse, and keyboard when I'm playing online, so how cool would it be if I could use my controller as my mouse?

I'm sure some of you have already figured out how to do this, but I thought it was pretty cool. Found this software called JoyToKey and it allows you to configure your controller as a mouse/keyboard! I set it up like this:

Joystick: moves mouse (duh)
A: Left mouse click
B: Right mouse click
C-up: scroll up
C-down: scroll down
C-left: Escape
C-Right: Tab
Z: Enter
L: Backspace (back in a browser)
R: Shift+Backspace (forward in a browser)
Start: Windows Start button
D-Pad Up: Alt-F4 (close window)
D-Pad Left: Nothing yet
D-Pad Right: Nothing yet
D-Pad Down: Toggles on or off the mouse function... actually switches from the configuration above to a configuration that only has the D-Pad Down enabled, which switches the configuration to the one above.

What do you guys think? I may make the right and left D-Pads be like "gg" and "hi" or something lol that way I wouldn't have to switch unless I had something to say...

The cool thing now is if I wanted to, I could play a game that uses the mouse with the n64 controller... that's why the program was originally made I guess. Anyway I wanted to share this with you guys because when playing smash, it was annoying to keep putting down the controller.

you don't need the mouse just the keyboard

press CTRL+M on the pj64k window and then type your message and press enter

actually i was thinking of buying some infrared sensors and working up a wireless n64 controller... if that happened you could talk to your computer from anywhere, and computers can control stuff like garages and thermostats these days so you could do that

as far as taxes, i actually did use it to submit my electronic tax forms online

don't even want to try that other one, dylan

That's an interesting thought o.O...I have too many skills for the controller though :(
