Greater than one weekI was hoping setup could be as easy as plugging in and playing, but thats definitely not what happened. I had to mess around with this adapter for at least 2 and a half hours before I learned what to do. The included instructions say that once you plug the adapter into the PC that a driver should automatically be installed. This didnt happen for me. I read the instructions that said to reach out to the YCC team for any help, read reviews and questions people asked, and was disappointed to see that the general response from YCC team is read the included instructions. Well, sadly, the instructions hold no answers and unfortunately poor English. The team also says that there are no drivers even though the instructions clearly said there is one. It makes no sense. So, here is my solution that eventually made the adapter work for me and will hopefully work for you. 1. After plugging in the adapter, go to the Dolphin Emulator website and download Beta Version: 5.0 - 17995 (current beta version as of 12/27/2022) - https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ This was the only version that I could get to recognize the Gamecube controller with the adapter. Itll download as a zip file that you must save to your desktop to access. 2. Open a second tab to https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/how-use-official-gc-controller-adapter-wii-u/#Using_Zadig . Scroll down to Windows -> Using Zadig and follow the directions. 3. Open a third tab to Zadig - https://zadig.akeo.ie/ Here you will download the latest version (Zadig 2.7 is the current file as of 12/27/2022). The purpose of Zadig is to give you the correct driver thats needed to use the adapter as the one that should be automatically downloaded either isnt there or isnt good. 4. Go to Dolphin Emulator -> Controllers -> Port 1 (Select Gamecube adapter for Wii U) -> Hit Configure. Now you should be able to see if the controller is working correctly with the adapter and can choose your button layout. If this worked, you should be able to download the games you want to play and get started! My closing thoughts: While this adapter is more affordable than the official Nintendo adapter, I really think its debatable if its worth going through this mess to get the adapter to work. The only reason Im going to say its worth it is because I got it to work. I tried this out on two computers and it worked, but I dont necessarily know if this will work for everyone. That being said, its one more solution being offered that the YCC team sadly cant provide. I appreciate the affordability, but this should be easier to use right out of the box.

Greater than one weekTLDR: works for melee. i use the slippi 18 dolphin emulator to do netplay and use 20xx and unclepunch for training. All you need to do is set it to PC mode, put your dolphin emulator controller settings to standard controller (port 1), and then change your controller bindings in dolphin. Super easy and has very good response! sometimes it’s tough to get the triggers on gc controllers to be acting proper, so make sure it says “button somethin” instead of like axis xy or whatever. Ezpz worth their money.

Greater than one weekIts a good device that allows you to use your Gamecube Controllers for more games other than Smash Bros, but that is a really good use for them. However its really good for other Switch Games, now you are gonna be limited cause there is no Home button or ZL button so, I would do some research to see which games are compatible. But I will say that if you have a bunch of Gamecube controllers and friends, Then this adapter is a good price for any Gamer or Nintendo fan.

> 3 dayI love this device! It hooks up to my switch docked no prob and uses all of my official and unofficial gamecube controllers. Would get again if someone at a smash tournament steals it (I hope that does not happen).

> 3 dayPerfect adapter for the Nintendo Switch. Gamecube handles do not have enough buttons to use all the functions. works great on most games.
