Default Is there any bluetooth game controller that can be used with emulators on infuse?

I was looking to join the Infuse 4g team here and wanted to know the following:

- Can you use ANY bluetooth controllers with gaming emulators? Also is there a single one that works without being rooted?

I know that Samsung usually messes up the ability to connect bluetooth controllers. I remember with my HTC Nexus One it worked beautifully with a wiimote even though I never rooted

I figured if I can use a bluetooth game controller with the gaming emulators and HDMI it to my television that I would have to purchase it...

Thanks for any knowledge you can give me I appreciate it

Oh... My... God...

You sir, are AMAZING!

Thank you so much I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my question jjfbman. I was starting to lose hope since no one answered my question but you saved the day. I'd really like to go with the Infuse but I told myself the next phone I get has to do 3 things like the iPhone can:
1. Emulators w/ bluetooth game controller support
2. Bluetooth keyboard support (I believe some people say the infuse already does this?)
3. Netflix streaming

1 down... 2 to go and I'm sold

Netflix support is probably going to come with Gingerbread. And if the rumors about Roger's Infuse are true, then an unofficial Gingerbread release shouldn't be too far off.
