nxbt VS joycontrol

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in the readme you should be able to set it up on Linux relatively fast, though some of the dependencies are out of date for the original library and will have to be downgraded manually.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

Uh... There are DIY alternatives. Check this out.

Don't know for Arduino but I've had successes running joycontrol in the past on a laptop.¹

If I understand your requirements properly I think you would want to make some kind of relay device, the overall goal being to receive a single controllers bluetooth inputs as a host, and then to broadcast them to each BlueRetro receiver. The easiest route especially with tinkering in mind would probably be to use a Raspberry Pi Model B, making use of one of the open source projects that can emulate Switch joypads, such as: https://github.com/mart1nro/joycontrol

Last night, I was playing around with stuff like joycontrol, joytransfer and splatplost (repos here: https://github.com/Victrid/splatplost https://github.com/mart1nro/joycontrol https://github.com/lowlevel-1989/joytransfer), and I guess maybe I got frustrated with the virtual environments (as things were not working as intended) and decided to remove them and run things without it, as well as deleting a pycache in the joycontrol folder that was root owned. Bad idea!!

The library used was joycontrol which uses bluetooth to connect.

No. You can even connect and emulate controllers via bluetooth with joycontrol https://github.com/mart1nro/joycontrol. As for the switch fightstick thing, you need the hardware but it is just like using any other USB to the switch
