How to use your favorite console controllers on Nintendo Switch and PC, and how to use your Switch controller on PC

I’ve recently discovered two awesome products that create compatibility between several types of controllers and the Nintendo Switch, as well as the PC, and even the PS3. There are ways to use emulation apps and software to pair various controllers with PC, but it’s a tricky process and sometimes you can’t get the wireless functionality to work. The quickest and simplest way to get gaming with your favorite controller is with one of these wireless USB sticks:

Mayflash Magic NS, NS-2, and NS-lite

The Mayflash Magic NS, NS-2, and NS-lite works with: Switch, Switch OLED, Windows, Raspberry Pi, macOS, PlayStation 3, NEOGEO mini, SNK NEOGEO Arcade Stick PRO, SEGA Genesis Mini, SEGA Mega Drive Mini, and Sega Astro City Mini

And it’s compatible with these controllers: DualSense, DualShock 4, DualShock 3, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One Bluetooth controllers, Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, Switch Pro, Switch Joy-Con, Wii Remote, and Wii U Pro.

8Bitdo Wireless USB Adapter 2

The 8bitdo Wireless USB Adapter 2 works with: Switch, Windows, macOS, and Raspberry Pi. It apparently also works on the Playstation Classic.

And it’s compatible with these controllers: Xbox Series X Controller, Xbox Series S Controller, Xbox One Bluetooth Controller, PS5/PS4/PS3 Controller, Switch Pro, Switch Joy-con, Wii Mote, and Wii U Pro. The Xbox 360 controller apparently works as well.
