I'm a bit old school I guess, I love it when I use only the keyboard. I find the mouse a bit too clumsy.

Edit: Whoops, a whole category off. If a mod doesn't mind, please move into General Gaming

Since the majority of the gaming I do on my compuer is NES-related, I don't need to use the mouse, so my choic is keyboard. It's much, much better than any gamepad; since there are so few buttons, I have a much easier time with my keyboard because it allows for faster reaction time due to using more fingers than I would on a gamepad. So yeah. Keyboard. Whoo!

Joystick, but I tend to use the keyboard for GB/GBC. No$GMB fails at joysticks, and pretty much the only time I play GBC games on the computer is when I'm hacking the crap out of them in which case I'm already using the keyboard to edit and take notes.

Ka-moved.

And keyboard only. Ever.

...unless it's a FPS, in which case it's M+K.

Depends. For puzzle games (and one or two others), I use Keyboard, since it's the most precise of the options I have (my gamepad's... not the greatest for that). Platformers (mostly SMW and related) I use the gamepad because it's more comfortable. RPGs, whichever I've got configged at the time.

I absolutely HATE Keyboard and Mouse, so the only FPS I play on the computer is Doom. =/

I use the keyboard, and/or the mouse, depending on the type of game. I don't have a gamepad, but I do have a steering wheel, which I use for racing games.

It all depends on the game, but since I play almost exclusively now, RTS...I suppose we can agree that I only use the mouse.

Keyboard.

Just about all the games I play on the computer are roms and most of the time I use the keyboard when playing them.

Depends on what game I´m playing but mostly it is Keyboard + mouse.

I need a gamepad for some of my roms, though.

Most games that I play require either a gamepad or a mouse. I'm not a big fan of using the keyboard anymore... it's OK if they're hotkeys (like RO) but if a majority of commands require the keyboard... ugh.

I guess I should mention, on the Keyboard/Mouse thing... my hatred of that only goes so far as games that require both to be pretty constantly used - such as, I would guess, most FPS games. Games that just have a few hotkeys and mostly use the mouse don't annoy me so much.

Keyboard + Mouse... I'm a control freak with games.
On Counter-Strike I need to buy weapons, scroll through inventory using the numpad, jump around, and aim with the mouse.
Starcraft, I use hotkeys to build fast and rush the hell out of everyone.

Keyboard and mouse. I find it easier to do it that way, plus I'm just used to it.

Keyboard + Mouse on the last two PC games I've been playing, which are Half-Life 2 and World of Warcraft.
