I even use DS4Windows to do some Pokémon challenges that you can watch here:

This quick tutorial will demonstrate how to setup you DualShock 4 or DualSense controller for use with the Project64 emulator for Windows 10 on PC. This method will use DS4Windows to allow the use of a DualShock 4 or DualSense controller via USB or its built-in bluetooth (if this option is available in your PC). DS4Windows updates constantly, so this may or may not have an effect on how well this method works for you. When in doubt, delete everything you currently have for Project64 [I highly recommend backing up your games and save files, of course] and DS4Windows and restart from scratch.

Also remember that YOU MUST OWN THE PHYSICAL COPY OF A GAME to legally play its rom counterpart. Therefore I will not be posting any rom download sites. I will update the video/description if new updates have any software-breaking issues associated with them that render this method unusable. Best of luck!
