[PC] Platform Controllers For Your PC

I'm interested in getting a controller (preferably N64, because it's my favorite controller) that hooks into my computer (USB hopefully...). I told my friend I was looking for one of these, and he informed me that the companies that make this sort of thing are a little sketchy. Does anyone have any experience with these controllers and perhaps a favorite company, or a company to stay away from? Any information would be great. Thanks.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

If you can't find anything for the N64 but have a PS2, RadioShack sells a USB converter for controllers that works spectacularly. If I remember right (I haven't played for a while), you can even get rumble when playing on an emulator.

Id rather not do it myself since I don't know much about how to read even basic schematics, and would like to be able to take it back if I have to. Also, this is kind of like what I want.

Or perhaps even something like this (ps2ish)

There's nowhere I can't reach.
