Wolf only supports creating some specific virtual devices.

For a "PS like" joypad we'll create a DualSense so that we can support all the advanced features like gyro, motion, adaptive triggers and so on. Your DS4 pad will be mapped to a PS5 joypad, apart from the mismatch on the name of the joypad that shouldn't cause you no problem.
