Leave that up to the game devs. Expose a platform API call with all relevant information about the accessories currently plugged into the console.
That way a game can check that API whenever cheating matters for that particular game - which may mean different things: playing with strangers, playing certain 'competitive' modes, getting achievements or high scores, etc.
