    This is great! Please keep this updated frequently. Also generic usb port controllers can be used? (Cheap 3rd party controllers I mean)

    great job, I hope there will something like this for usb lan adapters. I got a lan adapter for free but it's different chipset than the official nintendo one.

    It's not possible as of yet, see here.

    (I guess this also works as a reply to @GameSystem )
    Welp, I sent her a PM on Reddit pretty much as soon as I posted the article (in which I also asked whether she had a GBAtemp account and if she was going to make a thread about sys-con here) but I guess she hasn't seen it ^^" Thanks for letting her know tho, and I hope she appreciated the article too :P

    Very useful, thank you so much!
    One of my Joy-Cons has a broken SR button, so it can't be synchronized horizontally anymore. Now I can play 4-player again with a Xbox 360 pad. :)
    WiiU Pro Controller support would be great too.

    It should work with a USB OTG adapter as well, right? People seem to have had success connecting up USB devices with an OTG adapter in the past.

    You'd be better off with an 8Bitdo in this case

    I'm aware of this, but I already have something like that. It just cost more because of the enhancements it allows. More controller options, including keyboard and mouse, configurable buttons, wireless bluetooth without needing to connect any usb port, low input delay (Supposedly 1ms or lower) etc. :P

    I do like their controllers though, I consider buying one if I need a new one. :)
