  • NintendoExtensionCtrl

    Arduino library for communicating with Nintendo extension controllers

  • Classic controller != wiimote, it's an expansion that plugs into a wiimote over I2C, so easy to attach to a microcontroller, there are several Arduino compatible libraries people have written for it like this, https://github.com/dmadison/NintendoExtensionCtrl , then for turning that + a couple of GPIOs into a USB controller can use an arduino HID joystick library on any of the 32U4 based arduino boards https://github.com/MHeironimus/ArduinoJoystickLibrary

  • ArduinoJoystickLibrary

    An Arduino library that adds one or more joysticks to the list of HID devices an Arduino Leonardo or Arduino Micro can support.
