XInput wrapping
- Acting as native DirectInput controller, it's possible to use any of the generic wrappers. See the controller article for those.
Steam
- Controller can be found in Supported Controller Database and it's correctly recognizable as Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
- Full support of Steam Input including gyroscope and motion controls.
- You can toggle "Use Nintendo Button Layout" option depending on whether you prefer the A/B/X/Y buttons to be mapped as they are on the Pro Controller or to be mapped like it's an Xbox One controller.
Steam Link compatibility
- Works via USB and Bluetooth. Includes gyroscope and motion controls.[2]
- Works without any drivers on any operating system that supports Steam.
- Can be used just to send input from a controller to a PC. Go into Streaming options, hit Y and disable video and audio streaming.
- Won't work great unless you connect it to LAN or a low latency Wi-Fi.
