Is there a way to emulate a Wii U gamepad on a computer and use it to control the Wii U like a normal one? It's because my old gamepad is broken and my mom won't buy me a new one.

You technically can use HIDtoVPAD to emulate a gamepad using a USB controller, but for some reason you need a real gamepad to set it up every time you want to use it. As for on the PC I think you can stream the gamepad screen (I can’t recall the app name if it exists) but you don’t have any control.

So what wrong with it? Maybe it could be an easy fix !
