Some games do have inherent controller support, but when it comes to Wings 2 this support is managed via the keybindings menus for different players. It is possible to use xbox-style controllers (tested using a PDP wired controller) to bind actions to buttons on the controller, and play completely off of the controller. This does make splitscreen multiplayer more possible, as up to 4 players can hook up their own controllers to the main computer and run the game in that manner.
Sidenote: I do not own any PlayStation controllers, and am thus incapable if testing their compatibility with Wings . If someone would be willing to test this functionality for me, please comment on this article or contact me.
Controller support does exist for this game, but perhaps not in the manner one might expect.
