> 3 dayI 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.

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

> 3 dayThis Gamecube controller adapter allowed me to repurpose my old gamecube controller so now its not sitting in a closet collecting dust (though dust did find a way to stick onto the controller after all these years of being in a box). As the product states this is plug and play all I did was plug the black usb (not the gray one) plugged my gamecube controller and it worked like a charm, I am yet to try it on pc so I dont know how easy it is to set up for pc will update if I do try it. I got it for $10 on sale so Id say if you got gamecube controllers lying around and have super smash bros Ultimate I highly recommend getting this I feel this is the way to play Smash.

> 3 dayI’ve really only used it for once for my extended family and it worked fine. The instructions aren’t really clear but that’s to be expected for a knockoff from China.

Greater than one weekI tried this on switch and on dolphin, and neither of them work. The switch page on instruction manual had no instructions, so there was a lot of confusion setting it up. Dolphin listed the adapter as a connected controller, but didnt let me map any of the buttons, making it unusable.

> 3 dayBought this to play melee online with friends and it works great. They originally bought different ones and even after some googling and messing with drivers they couldnt get them to work and both ended up buying this one which is working for them too.
