Description
Nintendo Controller to USB Adapter
My goal was to use the CircuitPython Gamepad libraries, in conjunction with a Raspberry Pico, and allow you to use your NES controllers with your computer, or a Raspberry Pi (imagine playing NES games on your RetroPie setup using an original controller!)
The code and build is pretty straight forward, and you could easily 3d print a case for this and make it a permanent adapter.
Here's the video that guides you through the process! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fipmq0VcJd4
