if its bluetooth then it will probably work, might be a problem with button configuration though.
if its a standard controller, you can try to connect it using a usb adapter.
i tested both wireless and wired xbox360 controllers and both worked, except that in the wireless one the buttons were messed up each button did something it didnt suppose to.
if the ps1 controller you are offered is free, then take it lol thats for sure.
otherwise, i would strongly suggest buying a dedicated android controller to be on the safe side.
