Warning: Obsolete sysmodule, use sys-hidplus instead: https://gbatemp.net/threads/sys-hidplus-a-brand-new-sysmodule-that-allows-you-to-emulate-gamepads-over-the-network-for-parsec.576327/

hid-mitm-plus: a hid-mitm fork to allow the Nintendo Switch to be playable through Parsec or Steam Remote Play

hid-mitm-plus is a hid-mitm (by jakibaki) fork that allows for up to 4 controllers (and in the future 8) to be used on a Nintendo Switch from a PC using the network. The purpose for this is to allow the Nintendo Switch to be playable through services such as Parsec (tested and working!) or Steam Remote Play Together (if you somehow manage to and I would love to hear an explanation)
Currently, this sysmodule is still a WIP with a pre-release available as a lot of optimizations and testing must be made.
More details are available on the github repository and any kind of feedback is welcomed!

​

Requirements:

• Atmosphere (ReiNX and SX OS are untested) Edit: There's currently a bug where this sysmodule crashes on SX OS and in some Kosmos setups, this is currently being investigated, ReiNX remains untested and AMS remains working
• hid-mitm-plus pre-release (https://github.com/PaskaPinishkes/hid-mitm-plus/releases/tag/PLUS-0.2-ALPHA)
• Python 3
• 9.0.0+ FW Version
• If you want to use a streaming service such as Parsec, you'll need either:
• a) A capture card such as Elgato HD60 S or Pro; or
• b) SysDVR (https://gbatemp.net/threads/sysdvr-stream-gameplay-directly-to-a-pc.550616/)

Instructions:

1. Extract the pre-release zip file and copy the atmosphere folder to your microSD card
2. Insert the microSD card to your Nintendo Switch and turn it on
3. Go to Settings > Internet and write down somewhere the IP Address, you'll need it
4. Open Command Prompt and go to the folder where you extracted the hid-mitm-plus pre-release
5. Execute "py -3 -m pip install inputs"
6. Execute "python3 input_pc.py [IP ADDRESS]", replacing [IP ADDRESS] with the IP that appears on the Switch Internet Settings
7. If you have a controller connected, now the switch should detect it!

Holy actual heck, where do I signup! Especially now with the quarantine everywhere, this is something to behold, can't wait to see how it turns out!

Looks like a nice project.

8 controllers you say. Can't wait for 8 player bomberman.

This is so cool! I'm lucky that i have a capture card here hehe. It's kinda old (720p 30FPS) but it should work with this, right?

 

[KiiWii]

This is awesome

 

[niconico]

man, this looks good. looking forward to this :] keep up with the great work!

as long as you can preview it on your pc, it should

Thanks!

I remember wayyy before all this was made, I attempted to get the same effect through the use of a capture card and even purchasing a Titan One adapter on eBay. Wasn't a pretty setup, but it worked nonetheless, thankfully this should simplify it.

 

[Chrisssj2]

So you need BOTH sysdvr + an elgato?
LoL.. Im lucky to have both!

 

[Kioku]

This is exciting. Too bad I don't know anyone to use Parsec with.

you only need one of them, I think I explained it wrongly on the article

 

[Mythical]

Loving this good job!!!!!

 

[Delerious]

Hm, if it really does work through Steam Remote Play, i might actually be interested. Never used Parsec before.

 

[fvig2001]

How bad is the lag though? I use Moonlight + Titan One + Elgato + a modified GIMX and the lag is kind of bad for games like Mario U.

 

[nintenbrolluseless]

Would love to see a version of this that connects to the switch via USB for us offline users, great work!

in my case, the lag was playable for games such as NSMBU or Puyo Puyo Tetris (not adding the lag that Parsec adds), with Steam Remote Play it should be better than Parsec, Moonlight, or any other service tho, since AFAIK they optimize the streams better

added to the to do list

 

[DarkCoffe64]

Leave it to the fans and modders to do some actual good stuff that craptendo would never think of doing ever, eh.
Great works ya guys.

This won't work because of the latency of the preview. That's why you need the specific capture cards.
