boxer29 · Saturday at 2:09 PM

hi,
moving from switch to NS2.
i have wii u pro controller which was working fine with NS1 running CFW.
as this controller has been rarely used i want to use this with my Switch 2,, how do i use it with NS2, don't want to spend money on NS2 pro controller.

i have also got XBOX -x wireless controllers and Xbox usb adapter with which i can play on my PC.
is there any way i can use Xbox - x wireless controllers on NS2.

Are there any good compatible wireless controller which you recommend to use with NS2.

Thanks

Budget wise 8bitdo is usually the go to for accessories for any systems

What you were able to do with the Xbox and Wii U controllers on S1 was only possible because of CFW. Since the S2 isn't cracked (and won't ever be), it is impossible to use these controllers with the S2. The good news is that the S2 Pro controller is the best controller Nintendo has ever made.

Brook make converters that let you use Xbox controllers, among others, on Switch: https://www.brookaccessory.com/SW_Converters/list.html
This one even adds gyro: https://www.brookaccessory.com/products/Xone-adapter-series/xone-se.html

Not sure whether Brook support Wii U procon on Switch, but Mayflash do, e.g. their top-of-the-line dongle: https://www.mayflash.com/product/magic_s_ultimate.html. Look on their site - it's possible one of their cheaper dongles will work.

NS1 pro controllers work just fine on Switch 2, you just don't get the chat button.
