RaspberryPi-Joystick VS nxbt

Also, controllers that are usually used for USB on the desktop computer side are not capable to emulate USB devices, but there are specialized devices for that (random web search results - https://www.hagstromelectronics.com/usbtousb-shp.html, http://goodfet.sourceforge.net/hardware/facedancer20/, I would also dig into Raspberry Pi with USB OTG + software https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/82850/use-raspberry-pi-as-keyboard-mouse-output-to-control-server since it's cheap and easily available, there are probably better options). There are exceptions - e.g., Raspberry Pi Zero is also a "computer" but USB OTG capable https://github.com/milador/RaspberryPi-Joystick https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/283147.

Oh wow, awesome use-case. This actually uses my Switch Bluetooth Controller emulation project [0] under the hood for automating the button presses. If you have a RPi on-hand, you can grab a decent USB capture card for around $15 on Ebay or Amazon, last I checked, for a cheap(er) entry point into automation projects like this.

Go into the Switch main menu without closing the game and go into the ["Change Grip/Order" menu](https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt/blob/master/docs/img/change-grip-order-menu.png ).

Hi everyone: I have a problem, I want to install a software called nxbt (https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt) to simulate a switch controller but when I enter the command to install it in the linux terminal it says “command not found”

There’s a program I’m running, nxbt and there’s a pull request that would be really useful for me but I don’t know how to download it. What subreddit can help me with the syntax for terminal to implement this person’s fix?

nxbt also works without custom firmware but I think there's issues with latency and some inputs not going through.

The joycon emulation is done using NXBT which is super awesome! It already allows you to use your keyboard with your switch, though I edited it some to use the mouse as well as allow for rebinding keys in the webapp. It's a bit janky right now 'cause I didn't think other people would be using it, but my fork can be found at NXBT-MK. I know it's messy, go easy on me! You can also change the acceleration needed to activate the right joystick by changing the deadZone variable if you're interested in tweaking it a bit! If you follow the instructions in the readme you should be able to set it up on Linux relatively fast, though some of the dependencies are out of date for the original library and will have to be downgraded manually. I don't remember which ones in particular ;-; but I can go back and make a list of dependencies and versions later if people are having difficulty :)

Here's the github page where I found the program: https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt
