usb hub + gamecube controller adapter

[Felix12332]

i was thinking of buying a usb hub for my wii since i read the rumble feature on a gamecube controller would be off if you only used one (which i'm not even sure works so i would apreciate a confirmation) so i wanted to confirm if both the usb hub AND the gamecube adapter for the switch or wii u would work since i have one for the switch as well as 2 original gamecube controllers
i would just use the wii ones but for some reason nintendo decided to remove the gamecube compatability on the model i have so i don't really have a choice (i could buy the original model but it would be a last resort for me)

The USB hub (usb controllers in general) doesn't work with an unmodified Nintendo Wii in Gamecube mode.

Various Wii homebrew have implemented USB controller support, which is what a gamecube controller hooked up to the Wii U/Switch usb gamecube controller hub would *hopefully* be recognized as by such software. Nintendont is the preeminent homebrew solution for playing Gamecube games on Wii hardware.

So there's not one answer, you'd have to ask about specific software - and someone else, I haven't attempted this configuration myself.

i see... i'll buy one and see if it works as a test and in case it doesn't i can just use it with my pc
