Hey everyone!
So my joy cons are really beat up and I'm trying to play clubhouse games with a friend of mine which can't be played with a pro controller if you play on one switch... Is there any way for a pro controller to be recognized as a joycon?

Many thanks in advance!

you may have a chance...one day, with MissionControl.
it's in the TO-DO list. Maybe you can ask ndeadly if it's still under development :blush:

Planned/In-progress Features​

Below is a list of features I am currently working on or would like to look into in the future, roughly in descending order of priority. Requests are welcome if you have an idea you think would make a useful feature.

  • Rumble support
  • Motion controls support
  • Bluetooth LE support
  • USB wired controllers
  • UART MITM to allow button combos and other future features to apply to joycons in handheld mode
  • Per-controller configurations
    • Rumble on/off
    • Motion controls on/off
    • Identify as Pro Controller or Joycon
    • Set controller body/button colours
    • Invert analog stick axes
    • Analog stick deadzones
  • Companion application
    • Pairing database management
      • View paired controller information
      • Clear database
      • Export database to file
      • Import existing database from file
    • Controller management/diagnostics
      • Manage controller configurations
      • View raw HID report data
      • Test buttons/analog sticks
      • Dump SPI flash (official controllers only)
    • Controller discovery/pairing reimplementation
  • Tesla overlay
  • Keyboard and mouse support
  • Gamecube mode (analog trigger support)
  • Title-specific button bindings

ps : BTW I don't know if it could identify a PRO controller as a joycon (as PRO controller is natively supported by HorizonOS)

While searching this I actually found a long-dead branch of mission control designed to do exactly that... but I dont know if it will still work with the current atmosphere since it was last updated 3 years ago and Im not nearly skilled enough to update it myself so yeah... I guess I have to ask the dev and wait...
