Top 15 J2K Alternative and Similar Softwares | Dec 2024

There are already very feature-rich joystick to keyboard mappers out there, be it JoyToKey or XPadder. However, both are not Freeware and both lack the possibility to easily switch configurations from outside the applications, which would be necessary if you use game front-ends like HyperSpin. This is where J2K has it's strengths.

Features
- Supports up to 32 joysticks / game pads (Buttons, POVs and Analog directions)
- Allows very quick setup of mappings
- Tell J2K which config to use by launching "J2K.exe CONFIGNAME", particularly launch "J2K.exe Empty" to suspend J2K from mapping anything.
