Before you want to yell or bash please read
Would it be cool to have a homebrew app like that that allows us to connect ps3/ps4 or any other type of other hid controller and map it as a pro controller just like with the wii u
This would work if the switch was in docked mode.
Do you think it will be possible in the near future

Probably maybe someone does it for the bounty?

Its possible to do it, the bluetooth module has support for all the needed components already, not aware of anyone working on it though.

Magic-NX (a 3rd party adapter) has the ability to do it. However, it only works for one player. I suppose an app similar to HID to VPAD wouldn't have this drawback. I'm sure people have thought about it, it's just that no one's willing to do it yet. We'll probably see it pop up in the future.

I don't really see you getting bashed for this post as it's a much better idea than your last one. If there's anything people would complain about, it'd be the fact that you said it would only work when docked when it'd actually work undocked as well.

I agree.
It was my own fault for not explaining properly by what i meant with fbi on the switch

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
