> 24 hourThe unit is broken and Mayflash has been unwilling to work with me to get a new unit sent out. I successfully installed the device and synced my Wii U Pro controller with the device in DINPUT mode and it worked as expected, though the sticks werent working right. I saw online that I would either need to program the DINPUT setting or simply switch to the XINPUT mode to emulate a 360 controller. As soon as I switched the device to XINPUT mode, my computer blue screened. I tried everything. Uninstalled, reinstalled (from the website, obviously), blue screened. System restore, install, blue screen. Nothing worked. So I wrote an email to Mayflash and explained my situation and requested that a new unit be sent to my house in a box with return shipping paid for so I could send the defective unit in for testing. After a week with no response, I resent the message. I finally got a response in broken English suggesting I try it on a different computer. Of course I did and it also blue screened that computer. I still have not received a response back from Mayflash and thats been over a week ago again. I am on a 64 bit Windows 7 machine. Ill update this review if I ever hear back from Mayflash.

> 24 hourI have been using this adapter for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it. I love the Wii U Pro controller, but it wasnt getting much use with my Wii U. Now, I am using it every single day with my computer and I like it much more than the PS3 controller I was using before with my computer. Not to mention how much clutter this saves by eliminating the long cords I had to use before getting this. Like other users have mentioned, the buttons do correspond to the Xbox 360 buttons, so youll have to get used to A, B, X, and Y being in different places than the 360 controller. It only took me a couple days to adjust, and after about a week I didnt even have to think about which buttons were which. I only use the Xinput mode, and it has worked with every game I have played. For $25, I think this was well worth the purchase price. Definitely would recommend.

> 24 hourFantastic product. When I bought it, I realized it was going to be a slightly different experience from a normal PC controller (like an Xbox one) since the buttons are not only flipped with the right joystick on the Wii U Pro, but theyre also in different orders. However, since then, I found there has been a driver update available online that can even let you remap the button configurations to a normal PC controller setting. Fantastic product overall, would highly recommend.

> 24 hourAbsolutely incredible. This device lets you make full use of the Wii U Pro Controller on a PC. Vibration works well, controls work like they should. Oddly enough, Im used to purchasing electronics on Amazon and having them not work, but this was not the case here. No problems at all. Very easy to use. The directions are right on the back, and I set it up in less than a minute. Compare this with the 10+ hours I spent trying to get the Wii U Pro Controller to work with a Rocketfish bluetooth adapter, ultimately to have the adapter inexplicably break.

> 24 hourI know there are reports that it makes your controller function like an xbox controller, but that isnt quite true. The letter button lay outs stay the same, so in that sense there is no confusion when you are looking down at your controller. If you play a game like AC Unity, then youll be confused because they use context sensitive positions when showing a button prompt on screen. The device works perfectly when it comes to connecting your Wii U Pro Controller to the PC so it deserves every single star it gets.

> 24 hourWorks well for the games I wish to use it for, which dont require quick button sequences. I gave it 4 stars because it seems to have some slight input lag, which will probably spell death for faster games. Theres a mini disk for the drivers, but it seems to work as a plug and play for me.

> 24 hourIt does what it says and it works ok but mine was kind of buggy. The Xinput/Dinput switch doesnt work very well and found it switching off of Xinput on its own alot without the physical switch moving. I have to fiddle with it a bit to get it to work again. I just gave up and bought an Xbox One controller and tossed it in my junk drawer.

> 24 hourOut of every controller I have, the WiiU Pro controller is one of my favorites. For a while Ive been using the free software WiiUinsoft to connect the pro controller to my PC and its been working, but it wasnt ideal as there were a lot of little quirks. Unlike WiiUinsoft, this device has no quirks whatsoever. Just plug it in, press the sync button on the device and the controller, flick the switch to Dinput or Xinput depending on what you want to use, and have fun. Works absolutely flawlessly.

> 24 hourI didnt realize at the time just how bad the Wii U Pro Controllers were, but this adapter helped me see what was wrong with it. By extension, same goes for Switch Pro controllers. Why are digital triggers a thing? Is this the 90s? Anyways the adapter worked, I dont really feel its worth $16 though.

> 24 hourI enjoyed using this to get some extra use out of Wii U pro controllers to play some pc games. It worked great for almost 2 years, with my only real complaint being that using two controllers at once doesnt work with most multiplayer games, even though they were connected to the dongle and windows recognized them as controllers. Im sad to say that my dongle died today. I tried to play a game and my controller wouldnt connect, so I checked the dongle, using every usb port and wiggling the wire around with no luck. It worked almost perfectly until today, so Im almost definitely going to buy another from this company.
