Do you recall what caused it to stop working?
Also, what version of the Retro Fighters Defender do you have? There's a newer "Bluetooth Edition" which apparently features a wired USB connection. Since you mentioned using a USB PS2 controller adapter, I'm wondering if this "Bluetooth Edition" with a wired USB cable is the one you have.
I would like to get a Retro Fighters Defender but I would like some confirmation on if anyone is able to get reliable pressure sensitivity in PCSX2 with it before I purchase one.
I created this topic a few months back :

So you sort of answered my question with this topic, but can you provide some further details? At that time, it was said that getting the Defender Bluetooth Edition gamepad to work in PCSX2 with pressure sensitivity was not possible, that it was only possible with if you had the original (wireless) Defender and not the Bluetooth Edition which (unlike the original defender) apparently came with a USB connection cable that you could use.
If you have the Defender Bluetooth Edition and got pressure sensitivity to work through a USB connection, that's progress. If you have the original Defender, and were able to connect it via USB and got it to work that way, that's also interesting.
I would like to see the Retro Fighters Defender have native PCSX2 pressure sensitivity support, particularly a wired usb version of this gamepad. It would be good to know more details about how you got it to work, if you can pinpoint why it stopped working, which version of the Defender you have, what kind of USB adapter you used, etc.
I would absolutely buy a Retro Fighters Defender if it had native, or reliable PCSX2 pressure sensitivity support, through a wired USB connection. We shouldn't be reliant on using an official PS2 or PS3 gamepad in order to emulate pressure sensitive face buttons on PCSX2. The Retro Fighters Defender has designed this gamepad with the DS2 in mind and there's no reason why PCSX2 can't recognize this gamepad's features natively and have its pressure sensitivity be usable in PCSX2 and be reliable.
That said, I'm grateful for the individual button sensitivity options added to controller settings inside PCSX2 that makes using a non-pressure sensitive face buttons gamepad more versatile in PCSX2. I'm still using a gamepad with non-pressure sensitive face buttons and adjusting the button sensitivity %s for certain buttons where needed in certain games. But having the full spectrum of pressure sensitive face buttons in PCSX2 at our fingertips with the Retro Fighters Defender would be wonderful.
