Will wireless controllers like this work for emulators?
Yes, they work. I recommend you get one with hall effect/ tmr sticks to have a friend for life (and actually be worth the money) Name brands like gamesir and 8bitdo are the best but some Chinese off brands are surprisingly really really good if you know where to look and have the patience

Picked up my first fight stick. How should I mod it?
Don't mod that one get the regular 8bitdo stick and mod that one.

Finally decide to get a fight stick
I have one, and as others said, it is a great controller to start. It is very easy to mod, tho there is really no need in regards to buttons. They are good, only a bit loud. What you will probably notice down the road is that the stick could be a bit tighter, so I really recommend that you change la

Pro Controller Cope
Jerome here, I'm the one who started the debate with Lucky on Twitter. While I'm not super informed about the LodgeNet controller I do know the V2 stick is another POT based stick. Every single one of these style sticks, regardless what tech they use, do not have the same stick throw and pivot point

OT leverless gaming controller / all button controller / hitbox (not my pic, btw.

Hori Mini - good first arcade stick?
If you play on PC I recommend getting a Mayflash F300 or 8Bitdo Arcade stick - they can work on a PS5 too but you'd need an adapter. The Qanba Drone 2 is another good starter stick but it's a little more expensive and has native PS5 support. The Hori mini is not the worst thing ever but if you'll en
