According to the Japanese news blog Gigazine, the D-pad along with the triangle, circle, square and cross buttons work. The L1 and R1 shoulder buttons were also functional. The only ones that do not work are the L2 and R2 triggers, as well as the analog sticks which are mere displays. It is safe to assume that the touchpad will also not work.
