Homebrew Switch Input from PC?

[Real.96]

EDIT (CFWless solution):
I was able to control the Switch via keyboard using Joycon Droid (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rdapps.gamepad, Android 9 needed) + scrpy (https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy)

EDIT2 (SOLUTION): https://gbatemp.net/threads/nxcontr...lay-switch-games-windows-mac-os-linux.557388/


I would like to know if there is a way to control Switch using PC without buying Cronusmax + Magic NS/Brook PS3 to Wii U as showed in these 2 videos:

It works great and not phone root needed!

What are the two things they bought? Why should someone, I didn't, watch the video to find out when you can simply just say it.

Edited, sorry. They're Cronusmax + Magic NS/Brook PS3 to Wii U

If it's an 8bitDo, then there's syscon but isn't wireless you can use

I'd like to use it in Pokemon SwSh. Can i use laptop keyboards to control the Switch?

I read the thumbnail of the 2nd video, that software I mentioned is to use any controller I believe and I'm not sure about it regarding keyboard or mouse, but you can use third party controllers though.

They're using keyboards+mouse too. The first video only these two

@Sasori pointed me to "CommunityController repo", this could be a good starting point!

there is no way to do it without any external devices, using only PC?

If you're running Atmosphere on your Switch you can use hid-mitm:

I don't think it's being maintained any longer now that sys-con exists though.

This is sooo Sick! If this video gets 100 likes I'll personally add every Pokemon back into Sword and Shield !"

He's got 59 likes.
I wonder if he means he'll distribute the encounter table if he gets 100 likes?

It doesn't work with last update...I saw sys-con is updated instead. But how can i send command from PC? Can i use Xoutput or something like it?

hid-mitm has a sample script, input_pc.py, that shows you how to do it.

As far as I know it should work, but if it doesn't work there's a good chance it will if you enable Atmosphere's enable_deprecated_hid_mitm option. Or recompile it with the latest libnx libraries.

If all else fails, consider running a downgraded emunand.

enable_deprecated_hid_mitm = u8!0x1

correct?
