With the Nintendo Switch 3.0 update, the system now has support for wired controller input. While there are officially no controllers yet on the market that are marketed as compatible I have found that the Hori Pokkén Tournament Battle Pad is compatible with the system.

I have also tested the following controllers and can confirm that they do not work


Do with this information as you will. Hopefully this can come in handy

Forgot to add, the GameCube adapter for Wii U does not work

Hello Australia.

...

I'm from Ohio

Can you run the Switch pro controller through the USB port yet?

Sorry to break it to you, but I actually enjoy video games.

...

oh yeah and where are the videogames eggman?

Fuck me.

Yes

So this means I could use a PS2 controller for Fire Emblem Warriors, instead of struggling with the Joycon?

I did not like using the Wii U controller for Hyrule Warriors at all. It was just too big.

Cool, so I guess it wasn't a built in limitation, the update hasn't hit my country and your image is upside down, not a hemisphere issue.

Your pic suggests otherwise.

so no Smash for switch

No, I stated in the OP I tested the PS2 controller and it did not work

Must be because I am posting from my phone, thanks for letting me know.

Oh, silly me.

They'll probably port it at some point so Smash 4 can stay relevant at EVO.

2nd game from the right and straight on to Smash 5. I don't really know how that's going to work though, because Samurai is still working on another unannounced game.

what does it work with

F-ZERO

...

He brought a mecha figma and said it was part of his research for the game.

So it's an F-Zero game but it's the open world bounty hunter Captain Falcon game we've always wanted and the Blue Falcon is a transformer that changes between racing car and fighting robot.
Fucking sweet.

I have two theories as to how the Nintendo Switch may handle the wired inputs based upon my findings.

The first is that the Switch has an index of controller IDs that it will accept as a pro controller for input, with the Pokkén controller being one of those as the game is slated for a Switch release.

The second is that it accepts generic controllers for its input but requires them to meet a specific specification which is why the Playstation controllers, gamecube adapter, and fightstick I tried did not work.

if I am correct with the first one, it in theory should make it easy for modders to create controller adapters for the switch which would basically just have to be a controller passthrough which spoofs the system into seeing a different controller ID.

The second theory would mean that the exact spec needs for the controllers to run on the system would have to be reverse engineered before being able to use any controller of your choice.

Well I have tested this controller and have found that it works with

And has partial support for

What the fuck, that's a leap in logic, there is no new F-Zero coming, there's a higher likliness of a new Golden Sun coming than a new F-Zero.


I'd say the second one sounds more likely.

i meant shit on the switch itself, I know it works on PC, loonix but i didn't know it worked on ps3, thanks for the info. I feel there's need to be some kind of controller database or wiki

Any game with pro controller support that does not require analog input it will work with. I played a race in Mario Kart 8 with it.

Hey that's pretty good, I'm assuming arms is crossed off and hopefully I can use the controller for kirby in the future. Does the dock have multiple ports? can it handle more controllers?

The dock has 2 external ports.

There are 3 USB ports on the dock, in theory there should be nothing stopping you from using a USB hub and taking advantage of more wired controllers

Does the wiiu pro controller work?

I would try it if I had one. If another user can figure this out please post your result here.

I hope so, the switch pro controller looks uncomfortable unlike the wiiu one.

I don't think it will because it only charges via the usb. It does not have any data pass through it.

I thought so too but it pretty soon became my most favourite controller ever. Even the lack of analogue triggers and the uneven analogue sticks don't bother me. It's comfy as fuck.

What's the chance of a new Startropics?

Hmm, I recall a third party who had worked or was working with Nintendo expressing interest in a new one.

Less than F-Zero I will see if I can find that statement and find out who the developer was.

CUSTOM ROBO

Can companies not sneakily add drivers that make controllers from other systems work?
Is that against the law?

In other news, multiple vulns were patched with this update so update to prevent yourself from possibly pirating anything when such an option becomes available.

Nobody can ever patch everything

Great thread OP, did you know that the Third Age mod for Medieval 2 TW was just updated?
It add one more faction, the Kuzhan which are pretty much Fantasy Finnish.
They're mostly focused on Skirmishing and light units so be sure to use hit and run tactics and plenty of ranged.

Enjoy your censored games you'll still hype up because you currently have none

Pick one

The guy above you set a great example with actually being original and funny with his joke. Your's stopped being funny around 2010.

No really what games? They're all shit.

And reported for consolefaggotry. Shill harder.

I'm asking a question about video games here user. I bet the report was dismissed like I am with your lack of anything substantial to say.

Where's the Switch dog porn at?

wew

Speak for yourself. I like F-Zero. I want an F-Zero game. Not an unrelated game starring Captain Falcon from the Smash Bros series.

Post it

I own a switch myself, but you sound so fucking butthurt holy shit. Get a fucking grip, you pants pissing manchild.
If you can't handle the bantz, you should fuck right off to shittit, cuckchan or neofag.

You enjoy videogames so much you buy a shitty gimmick console for casual and normalfags with physical dlcs.
You are totally not pushing the industry into the wrong direction by supporting garbage hardware with shit software.
Thanks for everything.

Why is she so perfect?

Nope, they can fuck you over as hard as they damn please. I don't know about adding drivers from another console, probably avoiding lawsuits or want you to buy THEIR products like a good gaijin.

What are you talking about? Did something new develop, because when I checked gbatemp yesterday the PegaSwitch guys said that all their bugs still worked and that we should update

I love how smart people have gotten since the DSi days. Now they're waiting until that can pry it open enough to pirate.
I'll buy a switch new when that happens.
I'll wait around ~2 years for a revision though.
Also. Nice Chihuahua
Fuck your Fennek, it's a chihuahua.

...

are there wired switch compatible onaholes yet?

lol

You just described every console though, user.

You need to rethink your life user.

You just want to fuck Braixen via pokken, don't you?

Consoles post 2000's.

I'm a Nintenkiddie and I'm buttblasted too

sure id take braixen for a spin but i was thinking more along the lines of purah

From what I understand it's not that they necessarily add drivers to do that, but that they write their drivers to only accept hardware that advertises itself as belonging to the company. (That info is included in the standardized ID for USB/BlueTooth devices. The USB HID class, if you're interested)
So essentially there is a whitelist.

Cheating that should be as "simple" as adding a middleman to convert a device's advertisement signal and input to appear as one on the whitelist. Unfortunately that adds some latency, but it should be negligible.


Fennecs came first

You wanna say that to my face, ESE?

Just found this on YouTube, apparently Mayflash released a firmware update that allows for the Gamecube controller to be used on the switch.

...

Finally, good controllers on a Nintendo console again.

This will be very nice for GC virtual console, which I'm hoping is on its way.

I want to be able to play Wind Waker while I'm taking a shit like I thought I'd be able to with the Wii U.

This is good to know; thanks.

Holy shit this is awesome

I love how everybody on Holla Forums uses handhelds exclusively when taking shits
It's the one thing that unites us

Wake me up when the Switch is easily soft moddable.
