whats better a joystick so i can play on all formats or specifically an n64 controller?
the n64 controller is one of the best controllers ever made imho, so it will be fine for all formats

i live in england, so i need to know where they sell this adapter for n64 controller
I use the Saitek P880 for NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, and GB/GBA emulation.
The only downside would be that there is no button that corresponds to the Z button on the N64 controller. I've made a decent workaround though: I use the L button on the gamepad for the N64's Z button and the left joystick button on the gamepad for the N64's L button.
If any Saitek P880 users are interested, here's the profile I use with Jabo's latest input plugin:

A) I've got an article on PC controllers (WIP) available at a small gaming and anime community --> http://www.lostreverie.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=127&view=findpost&p=2728
B) If you get a usb controller, avoid the cheapest Logitech pad (others might be ok) and wireless ones aren't nessicarily better. Ones laid out like a PS2 controller do fine with almost anything -- with two shoulder buttons per side and two analog sticks you can map c-buttons as the directions on the right stick and z as L2. Oh, and if some controls aren't working get an input plugin supporting DirectInput!

If you have any console, you might get an a adaptoid for that system to pc. As for the n64 controllers... the control stick only lasts for so long =( If it's a ninty controller, I suggest the gc controller. Heck, it's the best controller for any of the new-gen systems.
But basically any controller that matches the layout of these controllers should do fine.

is there anyway i can programe it into my controller?
When you mapped your controller, you assigned buttons to R and Down-C to respective buttons on you PS2 contoller via the input config. These buttons are known only to you and other people using the same pad configuration. Simply use these buttons (corresponding to R and Down-C) in the way I said in in order to perform a crouch.
If you mean program, as in set up a key combination, then no idea. I also see no point since it's such an easy move to pull off.
