It's a fun little hack! I like how it's alllllllmost practical, but not quite :-) The biggest limitation for me right now if that I have to stay within 10 feet of my WiiU console or it has a bad time.

With all the talk of Nintendo remotely bricking Switch 2s, maybe I should unplug my GameCube's broadband adapter... just to be safe.

Most definitely!

Neat! Nah, I haven't done the USB C mod, but that looks pretty slick. I just use the charging cradle that came with the black WiiU deluxe set.

It's actually pretty comfortable though! Almost like playing Switch with split joycons.

Thanks so much for watching! In the beginning, I really thought it would just be the typing automation, but as time went on I had more and more ~~intrusive thoughts~~ ideas for features to add.

I happen to be a big fan of that 80s music video :-) I think this was the third time it's made an appearance on my YouTube channel.

Thanks for checking it out! Glad you enjoyed it.

Yep, it uses an input buffer. I ran some tests it seems to max out around 45wpm. If you type faster than that, the characters will still be added to the buffer and get processed, but you'll eventually have to sit and wait for the movements to play out (at about 45wpm). For reference, my best rate unassisted (using a standard GameCube controller) was about 20wpm.

There are dozens of us!

Looking back, it almost feels like a Switch prototype. It's a goofy little thing, but I love it. That said, I also love the Nintendo Virtual Boy, so my judgement might be questionable.

Thank you! I think the impracticality of it all adds an extra layer of fun :-)

Slightly perceptible, but totally playable. Considering all the hops it has to make, it's surprisingly good. I have both my WiiU and my desktop hooked up to ethernet, which helps. Games like Portal 2 work well because they don't usually require split second inputs, but anything requiring precision (like a rhythm game) would probably be a struggle.
