So I bought one of these devices (hover for details)

And it works so much better than I would ever believe? I'm playing Splatoon 2 with a PS4 controller *and the gyro controls work (albeit on a slight delay)*!

@ShugoWah As far as I can tell it's not adding any lag on buttons or analog movement. I ran Dead Cells level 1 in 1m 06s on a PS4 arcade stick

@ShugoWah If there's a particular thing you want me to test out lemme know!

@ShugoWah On the XB1 pad, - is view (the "select" button), + is menu (the "start" button), home is home, and capture is view+menu

@ShugoWah Also worth noting that it maps the face buttons based on position rather than label (so the Xbox's green "A" is the switch's B)

@ShugoWah There's not much really; it just changes what kind of connection it emulates for the Switch. "You have a Switch Pro controller plugged in" vs "You have a Switch Pro controller connected wirelessly." Probably just for compatability/futureproofing? Not sure if there's any performance difference
