May Flash Wireless Wii U Pro Controller Adapter for PC USB

I just got this and started playing Borderlands 2 on steam, works well and I am more familiar with the Nintendo layout of buttons than the Xbox 360 buttons. It was just install sync and play its that EASY!!! I have a 360 controller which I may or many not test, it depends if I have any batteries lying around. All in all good product and works as advertised! I realized that not all my steam games supported it which is fine, it tells you which games will work when you look at product info so its not a big deal. Highly recommended for the price.

Ive been really frustrated with Nintendo for the past seven years. When they announced the Virtual Console for Wii, I was really excited about having digital versions of the games I grew up with on a Nintendo console instead of PC ROMs. Unfortunately, a lot of the games I loved didnt make it. Then Nintendo announces Wii U and how its supposed to win back core gamers and cut the grandma crap. They release the awesome pro controller and promise new Virtual Console games. What they conveniently left out was that 9/10 Wii U games wont even support the pro controller and instead of offering new / more Virtual Console, they spit out the same old crappy NES games that everyone has already bought and played on multiple platforms millions of times. Wheres my Turtles in Time? Aladdin? Lion King? TMNT Tournament Fighters? Mega Man X 2 and 3? Mega Man 7? Street Figher Alpha? Mega Man and Bass? Pinocchio? Hook? I know that licensing has a lot to do with it, but Nintendo has some of the best lawyers in the world. Ive come to the conclusion that they just dont care. Instead of bringing back those great games and more, theyre just gonna keep spitting out the old Mario and Zelda for people to buy over and over. Wait, wasnt I reviewing something...? AH, yes. The pro controller USB adapter. Its excellent. It comes with some Gamecube-lookin disk, but I dont know why because it wont even fit in my disk drive. I just plugged it in, synced the controller and I was off. Mega Man X 3 with (in my opinion) Nintendos best controller. Ive tried to support the company that Ive been with since a kid in the 90s, but its getting harder and harder because Nintendo simply does not care about us. They made the pro controller to lure us into buying the Wii U, but hardly any games support it. They promise more Virtual Console releases, but its been one game (if that) a week. Seriously? Nintendo is sitting on one of, if not THE most legendary video game library, but theyre just going to trickle out crap like Balloon Fight and Vega Stakes once a week. So, screw em. Now I can enjoy all the games I want and get my moneys worth out the pro controller - no thanks to Nintendo.

If you are a WiiU owner looking to use that WiiU pro controller on your PC? This is the device for you. Installation is as easy as plugging it in. With a toggle switch you can select between Dinput and Xinput. It effectively tricks your PC into thinking your WiiU pro controller is an Xbox Controller. It works great for games like MGSV too. Once its plugged in all you have to do is hit the sync button on both devices and your in business. It removes the hassle of trying to configure your controller through Bluetooth on your PC.

if you have used the Wii Pro Controler on Wii U, already you know its a great controller. Like the wireless pc receiver for xbox 360 controller, the device works the same way. I found the device self installs in windows, is recognized as a game controller. Not issues reconfiguring mapping using a program such as Pinnacle Game Profiler. Not compatible for Wii remote. If you are interested in the wiimote, I recommend the Wireless Sensor DolphinBar. Also a great product.

#unpopularopinipon once again nintendo ups thier game bu making the best controller unfortunately alot of third party publishers are opting out of making wii u games prefering to stay in thier comfort zone. that is where the mayflash wireless wii u pro controller usb adapter comes into play, i no longer am forced to play my computer games like a filthy casual and still get to experence the variety of games that pc has to offer. now i can finally play portal the way it was meant to be.

this works beautifully with my alienware X51. recognizes the controller as a 360 controller. only thing that you gotta get used to is the abxy mapping. as you know, the a and b, as well as x and y are reversed. once you get used to it, u will play like a pro. the connector port only connects one controller at a time so you will have to buy two or more for multiplayer.

I bought this adapter primarily to use a Wii U Pro Controller on my PC — because I dont really like XBox 360 controllers (*gasp!* HERESY! Yeah, I know; deal with it) — and later ended up acquiring a PlayStation 3 that came with no controllers, so now it also allows me to use my PS3 as well! It works great, too: use the X-Input mode on the PC to fool games into thinking youre using an XBox 360 controller, or use the D-Input mode on the PC (or PS3) for older games that dont support X-Input. :) Ive had this adapter for a while, and while the CONTROLLER ITSELF isnt so good, THIS ADAPTER is FANTASTIC! :D Thank you, Mayflash!

My xbox-360 controller was wearing out my USB sockets on my laptop, so I looked around for some wireless options. Decided that the Wii-U pro controller would be my next best bet and went over to my local B&M store to get one. My laptop had a bluetooth dongle embedded onto the mobo so I thought I wouldnt need anything further. Good god was I wrong.. After spending 2 nights of constantly deleting my drivers, editing my config files, constantly watching that stupid little Sync button to stop blinking only to have it work ONE FRIGGEN TIME and never again afterwards because you have to constantly mess with it if you have your controller die, I gave up. Thats where this little guy comes in handy. This thing saved me so much heartache that I would gladly buy it over and over.After installing the initial drivers that took little to no effort whatsoever, I just have to hit the power button to get it running. I treat it like my old 360 wired and map all the buttons out to what I need for project64 and dolphin. Also got it to work with minecraft as well with a different plug-in that treated the wii-u pro as a keyboard/mouse. I dont personally need and/or care about the turbo feature so I cant really vouch for that. Only one small con.. As someone else mentioned, the plastic on this truly feels extremely flimsy. Feels like this thing should be worth about 3-5 bucks, let alone 20+. Since its not exactly as flashy of a device, I just tuck it away so I dont really have to worry about it and its literally plug-in and forget about it.

This is much easier than trying to connect the Wii U Pro controllers through whatever Bluetooth driver your computer has. The adapter works exactly as advertised. Direct Input for up to 4 controllers or Xinput for 1 controller works without any problems. There is no delay in button response. A lot of games however only support Xinput, so some controller mapping software is needed in order to use Direct Input. Drivers are available with a mini-cd and from their website.

While it technically functions, it does not seem to work very well with third-party controllers. For example, my Hyperkin ProCube controller is unable to use all of the buttons when connected, as the device falsely registers a button being held down on my controller.
