gamehead200 Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Is it possible to split the wires on a Gamecube controller, connect them to a USB cable, get the correct drivers, and use the controller on a PC? If anyone can find any information, please post it here since I would really like to do this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unwonted Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 It's already done, for only $18.90 USD Neato! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 I've seen it for $9.99 USD...But I don't want to buy anything, I just want to "do it myself"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unwonted Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 If cost isn't the issue and learning is, you should buy one, take it apart, and learn. You could post a how-to guide and be the first to do so! Go GH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 You don't really need to take apart the controller...I can buy one of those extension cables for the Gamecube controller which cost about $10, buy a cheap USB cable like this one and then splice the cables and download the drivers which I already found! But I think I already have some USB cables lying around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
