Pro Controller X

What is Pro Controller X

This is a project, crossing a Wii U Pro Controller, with the (important) features of a Switch Pro Controller. Taking inspiration from Xenoblade Chronicles X (sometimes called Xenoblade Chronicles Cross), it is an attempt to "cross" the two controllers into one Pro Controller.

Why Make this?

The inspiration is simple, I think the Switch Pro Controller has the best features, but the Wii U Pro Controller by far has the best ergonomics. I find the Wii U Pro Controller super comfy, and want to be able to use it in emulation. While using it on PC stock is an option with software, that adds input delay, and doesn't allow for any Gyro aiming, which is the main feature I want.

Hardware

Hardware:

• OEM Wii U Pro Controller shell and buttons
• 8Bitdo Lite 2 Controller as the brains
• Custom PCB to translate the 8Bitdo Lite 2 into the shape of the Wii U Pro Controller PCB

Features

• Gyro Aim!!! (The reason for the project)
• Switch/PC Compatibility
• D-Input compatibility
• Vibration

TODO:

• All Components Placed All components should be placed
• Traces Connected Should be done (need to double check)
• Traces Routed Should be routed, but need to double check
• Finish Tracing from Scans All components should be traced (need to double check)
• Joystick PCBs Done (resistors to be added to main board)
• Antenna Tracing Antenna complete - impedance for pad needed - Seems to be correct compared to the 8BitDo
• Verify joystick board fixes
