NRage Input Plugin is the most developed and advanced input plugin available for N64 emulators.

It supports numerous features, such as emulation of the Transfer Pak, which allows games like Pokemon Stadium to load data from Game Boy games, and Controller Pak emulation, which lets saves be stored, edited and managed.

NRage also emulates the Rumble Pak, either visually or through controllers with rumble. It supports a wide range of devices through DirectInput, and newer versions also support XInput controllers.

Users can also bind modifiers to keys, for example to change movement speed, run macros or switch configurations on the fly.

The downside is that NRage is Windows only, as it relies heavily on Windows-specific libraries.

Project64 3.x includes its own build of N-Rage alongside the simpler Project64 Input plugin. If you only need a modern gamepad to work, Octomino SDL Input is easier to set up.
