And I forgot to tell you that I don't want to involve other people than me in it. It's not worth their hassle (but if someone wants to help me with it, if that's their will and they have much time to waste, then I don't have anything againts it).
Since someone made a thread like this anyways I might as well just ask this question:
Would it be possible in any way to connect any controller to the 3DS? Not gonna be of any use but I was just wondering.

Well, actually I didn't thinked about it this way. It'd be nice to connect Xbox 360 controller to 3DS (It'd replace the c-stick and the circle pad (or whatever is this "White left circle that you can move™" called)
Yes, it's possible, but not with the current public CFWs/tools.
I attached the whole explanation by shinyquagsire23, who was able to use a gamecube controller in the 3DS:
He hardmodded it and I don't want to hardmod my New 3DS, I want to involve PC in the process and transfer data via wifi.
It can be done over wifi with a NTR-CFW plugin. I'm not so much interested in using a Wiimote with the 3DS as the possibilities that sending controller input from a PC to a 3DS would open up. For example, that Pokemon shiny catching/egg hatching bot could be done completely in software with the NTR video streaming function, and similar things could be done in any other game, or you could stream the games to a PC and plug in a controller and play them on the big screen. Or you could do a Twitch Plays type thing. The possibilities are endless.
Thanks, now you're probably the only one who actually gave me a tip on how could I create this. I should start this project as a plugin then, but in future I want this to be completely separate from NTR CFW. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but the project is dead and it isn't open source, so we cannot fix some bugs and make it faster. And I don't hate cell9 for that, I can understand his decision, but I really want to make this project future-proof and not limited by some possible bugs of NTR CFW.
He didn't hardmoded his n3ds for that purpouse (actually dekunukem's gc3ds hardmod doesn't support N3DS). Shinyquagsire23 is doing everything through wifi

So I've got even better plan. I thought about forking Luma3DS and adding RPC to it. It's fully open source and supported, so if I should try, even if this would take 5 years to code. And it'd be very useful.
Well the guy who created the first Gamecube controller mod also has several other mods for other controllers, such as PS1 and the Classic Controller/Pro. I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but it certainly is a marvel.
Ah, so you mean wireless. I'm no programmer but it sounds like it'll probably require some interpreter over PC to read the Wiimote's inputs and send them back over to the 3DS. This sounds a lot harder than it sounds, however, but it should be within the possibility range. ShinyQuagsire's Gamecube controller mod reads inputs over a network, so this would probably work the same way.

Yeah, but it's pretty hard for the average users (in fact you have to print your own PCB). Also, the mod is permanent and pretty uncomfortable.
Anyway, I think adding RPC support to the existing CFW is a good idea, because we would be able to use every controller which can be connected to the PC in the 3DS.
Is it really uncomfortable? I've seen several mods that just install a cord adapter to plug your controller in, simple and easy.
There are two kinds of gamecube controller mod:
the first was made by dekunukem and it's made with cheap pieces you can get from ebay, and the tutorial to do it is public. However, you need to feed energy to the arduino, and you have to choose what analog (3ds or GC) you're going to use with a jumper (making the whole hardmod permanent).
The second is made by a guy (who I don't remember in this moment) but it uses a special pcb made by him, which you can only get paying for the whole hardmod service (which it's pretty expensive)

I wouldn't even go this far, i would just use my pc and emulators at this point.There are two kinds of gamecube controller mod:

Ah, yeah I'm full aware of dekuNukem's mod, which came first, but I was speaking of Katukity's service, which is what introduces the internal PBC that allows for a simple plug n' play mod.There are two kinds of gamecube controller mod:

Yeah, that is the reason I said RPC support in CFWs is a more reasonable option.
I think the first thing to do is asking to @Aurora Wright if it's feasible.
