      You so smart! No wonder I couldn't find anyone else who was having this problem. I went about it all wrong. Now, is it safe to assume that EVERY game with vibration support also has the option to disable it?

        It should.

          I wouldn't count on that. The option is mostly universal on modern systems because the controllers are wireless and force feedback can drain a battery. In the early days of rumble and wired controllers, I wouldn't be surprised if there are several games without the ability to disable the effect.

              I use lr-pcsx-rearmed and currently, 'Spyro the Dragon' is the only game I have that supports force feedback and I haven't played it enough to notice.

                @we1dont7die I think I may have experienced that problem with a 360 controller, but with my mayflash to ps3 adaptor that emulates a 360 controller, it vibrates perfectly fine. (so far) albeit a tad weak

                    @dankcushions Not the same issue. I don't experience any lag in the game. The controller simply starts vibrating and doesn't stop for a long time, so long to where my hands start to hurt and i can't play anymore.

                      @we1dont7die i know this topic is quite old, but it seems that the same your problem i've solved by adding "dwc_otg.speed = 1" (without quotes) at the end of /boot/cmdline.txt (for now I tested it on a few games and it seems to work)

                        Old topic, but relevant as i am trying to set up 360 controllers and having the same issue. The command line looks interesting, but does anyone know what else it might do? Anyone tried this? Thanks

                          dwc_otg.speed -> 1 will limit USB speed to full speed 12Mbps (USB 1.1)

                          but does anyone know what else it might do? Anyone tried this?

                          I would assume it would make reading/accessing USB flash drives and external HDDs slower?
                          I've tried it before but I didn't notice any issues with it. I currently don't have this enabled but then again, I'm not playing many PSX games on my RPi.

                            Did you try?

                            nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg
                            

                            and editing:

                            pcsx_rearmed_vibration = "enabled"
                            

                            to

                            pcsx_rearmed_vibration = "disabled"
                            

                            Regards,
