GCN ASCII controller on PC

[HugoNikanor]

Would the ASCII controller (http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-GameCube-ASCII-Keyboard-Controller/dp/B0000694RM) work on PC through the Mayflash adapter? Or is there some other way this could work?

reviving this thread to ask if there is any way for the ASCII Controller to work as a keyboard on a PC.
Wanna play Rocket League with it and chat is important

Apparently you can use this adapter but you have to buy two of them:

"Both parts of the gamecube keyboard are supported, but only one at a time. Two adapters are needed to use the joystick and keyboard simultaneously."

You can also build them yourself:

This is another adapter, not the v2 discontinued.

sorry I don't really understand what you wrote (two southern Europeans trying to communicate in their second language does that), but here's Raphael's message when I asked him some days ago about this adapter:

"The old version of the adapter (now deprecated) did allow this, but the new version does not currently support the keyboard."

So basically, I have to find a V2 somewhere - raphnet does not have it anymore.
