I got a controller and try to connect it to PC through Bluetooth, but it asks for a pin. No matter what pin you put in it just does not connect. I have even tried connecting it through the USB port to see if it register and got nowhere with that either.

It depends on the controller. Some need dongles, some are just a pain to connect, and others just don't support connecting to anything else at all.

I used to have a 3rd party Wii U Pro Controller, and even with a dongle it was unable to connect to anything other than the Wii U. So like I said- depends on what you have.

try wiinUsoft. that's how I did it, but it's official. the pro controller will not connect through normal bluetooth. it was a pita to get the controller recognized, but now, it works without issue. I guess it has detection problems when it first tries syncing, so keep trying. I was using an adapter, but now I don't have to.
