MAYFLASHWireless Wiiu Pro Controller Adapter for PC USB

Does exactly as advertised here, it's a no-nonsense PC adapter for your Wii U Pro controllers. There are some oddities with its direct input mode which render it incompatible with Steam - it will detect that you have a controller plugged in, and you can even navigate around the menus with the dpad / analog sticks, but you can't change the configuration at all and it accepts no other controller inputs. I suspect this may have something to do with how the adapter presents itself in direct input mode, and how steam expects to receive controller input. Steam does not automatically load a user profile for this controller either, so I suspect that nobody else has figured this out and that i'm not the only one with the problem. If you were planning to use this device with Steam Big Picture mode (say, for in-home streaming and multiple Wii U Pro controllers, for example), this will not work for you. Steam only recognizes it and accepts input from it in xinput mode, which only allows you to use one controller per adapter.It is 100% functional as an xinput device, all xinput compatible software sees it and accepts it as an xinput controller in that mode. As shipped, the button mapping is 1:1 (ie: A=A, B=B, X=X, Y=Y), even though Microsoft and Nintendo place these buttons in different locations on the controller. A firmware update released in February of this year allows you to press a button combination on the controller in order to reverse the mappings, which places the buttons back where you'd expect them to be. The software could've been a little more intuitive, though - I couldn't get it to work on my primary computer, and their directions left me wondering if I was just doing something wrong. So, here's what you have to do:Download the firmware updater from maysoft's website, and run it as administrator. You'll see a single greyed out button that says 'update firmware'. Unplug the device, and set it to xinput mode. Press and hold the sync button, and keep it held as you plug it in. If you did it right, Windows will detect a different device than usual, and the red light on your adapter will NOT light up. At this point, the 'update firmware' button on the software will be clickable, and you can proceed to update the firmware. Leave it plugged in until the software tells you that the update was completed, it shouldn't take long. If this process exactly as I described doesn't work for you, something went wrong in the process and your only real choice is to try it on a different computer, which can be inconvenient or simply not possible for some. Since it's a firmware change on the device and not a software update on your OS, once updated, the button combination will work to change the button layout no matter what computer it's plugged into, which is nice.With this update, the controller can be considered to be completely interchangeable with every other Xinput device on the market, and no longer requires its own special button mappings. I previously gave this adapter 4 stars, but now that they've updated it, I believe it's worth 5 stars.

Works great, quick painless setup, inexpensive, I love it! I split my video gaming between a home built gaming rig and a Wii U console. I was considering purchasing an xbox controller to use for gaming PC, until I started researching if I could use my Wii U pro controllers on PC and this adapter does the trick perfectly and sames me money! I love the feel of the Wii U Pro Controller and with certain style games a gamepad just feels right (I'm currently playing Gauntlet with it). I still play FPS and strategy games with Keyboard+Mouse, but this gives me more game play options for other types of games and allows me to give dual purpose to controllers I already own for my Wii U.Note: I think most modern games on Steam support gamepad controllers but only Xinput (not Dinput). With Gauntlet for example I have to use Xinput, which means only one of my Wii U Pro Controllers with this adapter. So for something like Lego Star Wars Complete Sage where local co-op play (2 people playing in the same room on one computer) I will likely have to get a 2nd one of these adapters for my 2nd controller for both pro controllers to work at the same time. If the game supports Dinput then up to 4 can be used on one adapter.This adapter allows you to switch between Dinput and Xinput (I cut the notes below directly from Mayflash's website)●If the Input Switch is set to the "Direct Input" mode, the controllers are recognized as standard Human Interface Device. Your controllers can be calibrated at the Windows Gamepad Setup screen. Up to four controllers can be recognized by a single adapter while in this mode.● Setting the switch to "Xinput Mode" will make it possible to fool certain PC games which lock out proper input modes from the user unless an Xbox controller is attached (for a list of these games, check Wikipedia). While in Xinput Mode Vibration Feedback is available. The drawback is that while in this mode, only one controller can be recognized by the adapter.

For the longest time, I've been trying to find ways to use Wii controllers on my PC. I started off with bluetooth adapters and a cavalcade of programs that ended up not working too well. I had purchased a Wii Classic Controller to USB adapter and used that for awhile. Though, given the superiority of the Wii U version, I had always wanted to use it.To my excitement, I discovered that this product exists. First and foremost, it's the most simple thing you could ask for. There is no software to customize or drivers to install; you plug the unit into your system, hit the sync button on the unit and on the Pro controller, and everything works seamlessly. It has two modes: X-Input and Direct. X-input mode emulates an Xbox 360 controller, whereupon the rear triggers function as analog and the rumble works perfectly. The only caveat is since this is a Nintendo controller, AB and XY are in their respective Nintendo locations, so the bottom button presses as B and the right button presses as A and so on. In Nintendo games, it works as it should. In most PC games, though, you may need to remap the buttons accordingly. Also, in X-Input mode, only one controller works per adapter, so in a situation where you would like four wireless controllers on your PC, you would have to either buy four adapters or use Direct Input. DI mode supports four controllers with one adapter, but the ZR and ZL buttons become digital and the rumble doesn't operate.With that said, the Wii U Pro Controller is my favorite gaming controller. I've used Dualshock 3, Xbox 360, XBox One and PS4 controllers, and this one is still my favorite. You really can't argue with the 80 hour battery life, either.

Este adaptador hace justo lo que dice, hace que tu mando Pro de Wii U funcione como uno de Xbox en PC, por lo que es compatible con cualquier cosa moderna. Lo que hay que tener en cuenta es que el mando de Wii U y Xbox tienen los mismos botones (A, B, X, Y) pero en posiciones diferentes, y en algunos jeugos eso puede hacer que el control sea más incomodo. Tendreis que buscar una actualización para las posiciones de los botones se cambien para simular un mando de Xbox, por lo que el boton B de Wii U actuará como el botón A de la Xbox, lo mismo con los otros botones. Lo malo de esto es que no hay forma de saber en que modo estás, pero bueno, es mejor que andar haciendo cambios raros dentro de los juegos, que algunos ni permiten cambiar los botones.

El producto funciona perfectamente, sólo se instalan los drivers que vienen en el disco o los pueden bajar de su pagina web.Después de la instalación sólo hay que conectarlo a la PC, una vez hecho eso, presionar en sync del mayflash y el botón sync de tu wii u pro controller y listo, ya está funcionando.Configuré el control para jugar en el emulador Dolphin y funciona 100%.Funciona perfecto con los juegos de Steam y Microsoft

Bevor ich mir das Ding angeschafft habe, habe ich (versucht) den pro Controller über ein normales Bluetooth-Dongle zu verbinden und es hat auch funktioniert! Aber der Aufwand ist groß, erstmal muss man zum passenden BT-Dongle den Toshiba Bluetooth Stack installieren (das ist ein Treiber und Tool Packet, dass die BT Verwaltung übernimmt).Man braucht aber ein kompatiblen BT-Dongle, wenn man den nicht hat und vorhat für ein/mehrere Pro Controller zu verbinden, dann soll man sich gleich das Ding hier kaufen:Kurze Auflistung und Stichpunkte für den Weg mit normalen Bluetooth:-passender BT-Dongle und Toshiba BT Stack (Kaufprogramm)-diverse Programme zum verbinden und remappen der Tasten (WiiUProControllerWin, WiinU, vJoy ...)-umständliches verbinden, jedes mal manuell koppeln wenn man den Controller verbindet-um ihn bei Spielen zu benutzen, die nur XBox360 Controller unterstützt (genauer gesagt, XInput Geräte), muss man die xinput DLL'S gegen modifizierte, für Pro Controller gemachte DLL's austauschen (nicht jedes Spiel kriegt das hin)- ein Programm in der Kette muss versagen und der Controler tut nicht.Mit dem Mayflash Wireless Wii U Pro Controller Adapter:-Einstecken (Treiberinst. waren bei W8.1 x64 nicht nötig, sind aber auf CD dabei)-Syncen (Verbindung baut sich selbständig auch beim wiederverbinden auf)-Zocken :)So einfach, kein Stress mehr beim Verbinden, Controller verbinden lassen und fertig, keine nervigen, instabile Programme mehr starten!Der Adapter hat einen Umschalter für zwei BetriebsmodiDInput: Man kann hier bis zu 4 Pro Controller im DirectInput Modus verbinden ( Controller werden dann als generische Gamecontroller erkannt, viele Spiele und Emulatoren unterstützen es problemlos)XInput: Der Pro Controller emuliert einen XBox 360 Controller und somit können alle "Games for Windows Live" Spiele gespielt werden, aber auch andere Spiele von anderen Plattformen, die nur XBox Controller untersützen (z.B. GTA IV, COD Serie, Batman Serie...) DAFÜR kann man aber nur nur ein Controller pro Adapter in dem Modus verwenden, aber das ist zu verschmerzen und gar nicht schlimm.In beiden Modis wird die Rumblefunktion von Windows vollständig unterstützt (wenn es in einem Spiel nicht tut liegt es am Spiel)Verarbeitungsqualität: Der Adapter sieht vielleicht nicht super schick aus, aber dafür macht er einen robusten Eindruck, das USB Kabel ist mit 1m ausreichend lang genug, die Funkverbindung reicht bei mir in der ganzen Wohnung.Fazit: Falls man eine Wii U sein eigen nennt und die Pro Controller am PC nutzen möchte, ist man mit dem Adapter für nur 20€ bestens bedient. Falls man aber keine hat, lohnt sich die Anschaffung für einen Pro Controller mit dem Adapter nicht, einen XBox 360 Controller mit dem Wireless Receiver findet man schon für um die ~30€.EDIT: Der Adapter funktioniert auch wunderbar mit Android 5.1 auf ODROID-XU (Platinenrechner, ähnlich wie Raspi) und auf meinem Samsung Galaxy S3 Android 5.1 mit boeffla Kernel. Im Xinput modus lässt sich die Android Oberfläche steuern, in beiden Modi funktioniert der Adapter auch mit Emulatoren wie Mupen64 oder SNES9x, im DInput Modus werden auch mehrere Wii U Pro Controller unterstützt.

The Wireless Wii U Pro Controller Adapter for PC USB is surprisingly small with a long USB cord. The build quality seems fine.The adapter comes with a mini CD that installs drivers for the adapter, the software is tiny and has no bloatware or obtrusive tray items, you'd never know it was installed.I have two official Wii U Pro Controllers and have had no problems connecting both to the adapter. Syncing takes seconds, after use you will have to re-sync your controllers back to your Wii U if you own one.Using D-Input, when the adapter is active 4 separate controller inputs are added as input devices. I thought I might have to key-map the inputs but this isn't the case. Buttons and directions are assigned to games as you would keys. I had no problems with range in my sitting room, I haven't tried using the controllers beyond that distance.There were no problems pressing several buttons at the same time (an issue with keyboard mapping) and there was never any missed lag or missed inputs. The controllers felt as responsive as they would on the Wii U.Using X-Input the PC recognized the Pro Controller as a 360 controller, I haven't had much experience using the method, but it's artificial identity was successful.Overall I'm entirely satisfied with the adapter, it delivers what it promises with convenience and no obtrusive software habits.It would sit better in my set-up if it was black but that's not a real problem, and it's easily hidden.For the price it definitely deserves 5 stars.

El producto es muy bueno. Pero me llegó sin el disco instalador de los drivers. Busqué la página oficial para descargarlos pero no está claro cuáles son de tantos que hay. ¿Alguien puede ayudarme?
