Sure, but like...would it really be the end of the world if it got controller support? I'm far more comfortable on controller than I am on mouse and keyboard, largely because I work on mouse and keyboard all day.

It would be very difficult to control a game like Fallout 1 with a conventional controller, but if you really need it you can use DOSBox, which has controller support. The Retroarch core is probably the easiest to use and setup, I am not sure about the standalone version, but it is probably similar.

I'm playing Fallout 2 via GOG right now, and I would really appreciate controller support.
