Wii U GameCube Adapter now fully functional on Windows

[Gawain]

Just thought I'd spread the word, someone has written a program that lets you use your GC controller adapter on windows platforms. So now you can emulate Melee/PM/Brawl and use GameCube controllers without having to buy those Mayflash things. It works great.

First thing you need to do is download the guy's driver and the GUI program he wrote
https://bitbucket.org/elmassivo/gcn-usb-adapter/downloads/WiiU-UsbSetup 2014-11-28.5.exe

Then you just plug the black cord of the GC adapter into the USB slot and run the program, and follow the steps. After that, all you have to do is calibrate the controller via the windows gamepad calibration wizard and then you can use it for whatever you want.

If you wanna use it with Dolphin, just use these controller profiles (put them in your GC controller profiles folder)

It's pretty neat, you can use all the ports on it too.

Super Smash Flash 2 with Gamecube controller? Does that work as well?

I haven't played that in a WHILE, but if you get a program like Joy2Key to map the GCN buttons to the keyboard controls you have set, that should theoretically work.

Huh, this isn't working for me. It says that it doesn't recognize it.

Can regular pc games recognize it as a general gamepad?

Your trying to use it on dolphin right? I forgot to mention that after you install the driver you need to turn on the GUI program and press the start button on it after you plug in your adapter otherwise it doesn't recognize them

Any videos?

 

[adlp]

is any work being done on trying to get it to work on the wii virtual console so we can use it for PM on Wii U?
