[QUOTE="GothicIII, post: 8829633, member: 359175"] Good question but this will unavoidably lead to massive amount of time to invest in. I mean beside swapping the electronics and customize the shell parts (drilling/sanding etc.) it will only get really complicated. What I mean? How to do this: 8 very "simple" steps to accomplish what OP asked for: 1st Informations. You'd need to know how the communications between the switch and controller work wirelessly bit-wise from an original controller. Not available? Grab a 2.4Ghz sniffer and start sniffing the communications. You have to filter out noise (like 2.4Ghz networking/bluetooth/radio etc.) and get an understanding of all available commands (dis-/re-/connection, button presses, axis-informations, rumble etc.). Write everything down. 2nd Informations part 2. The same has to be done for the hori gamepad. It is just easier because you'd need to sniff the usb-communication with a special dongle which is most likely cheaper than the 2.4Ghz sniffer. Also write everything down. 3rd buy hardware You'd need an fpga, components (resistors, transistors, capacitors, board etc) and an 2.4Ghz sender/receiver. 4th create a custom circuit board Use a "tool of your choice" to build a circuit board where all bought components will fit into and wire them appropriately. Build it as small and flat as possible you'd need to fit the later finished product into the hori gamepad controller. 4th build your board! Obviously you need something to work with 5th write the firmware for the fpga+2.4Ghz sender/receiver Grab your writings from before and write the firmware to translate all usb-signals from hori gamepad to the custom nintendo 2.4Ghz frequency back and forth. Flash it onto your custom board. 6th modify the hori shell and wire your custom board with the electronics of the hori game pad. Test if everything works correctly (most likely not). If not go to 7th. If it works you'd propably spent already hundreds of hundreds of hours with this project. You can be proud of yourself! Go to 8th. 7th patch your firmware and goto 6th. 8th profit.

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
