Homebrew Dualsense Working on the Wii U Because Why Not?

[rileysrjay]

Did you recently pick up a PS5, are now bored with it, and want a better use for that awesome new Dualsense controller? Well fellow temper, I come out of year(s) of lurking to present this to you: the dualsense working with the Wii U! This works via the mayflash magic-ns running on the latest 1.31 beta, hid to vpad, and this config file. Enjoy!

My life is truly enriched because of this news. Thank you for sharing what's quite possibly the only way of playing the wii u

It's funny how people managed to make this controller work on several different consoles but not on PS4, even on PS3 it works. I really hope that Sony fix this with an update, it would be very practical to have a single controller capable of working on PS3, PS4, PS5, PC and Android/iOS.

I believe the magic-S might solve that problem as it supports the PS4 and was also updated with dualsense support. Buy yeah, Sony's approach to controller compatibility with the dualsense and ds4 has been lackluster and I'd much prefer a native approach. No ds4 for ps5 games on the ps5, but remote play of ps5 games works just fine on the PS4 with the DS4? Really Sony? Very much the opposite of M$ and how everything just works between the one and series lines.

Yes, you'll need a mayflash for this to work, as well as a hacked Wii U with access to the homebrew launcher and HID to vPad. This is the one I have linked below, it's quite handy as it can be used with a large variety of consoles and controllers. I usually use mine with my PS3 and switch pro controller, and it works extremely well. If you have any further questions, let me know!

can i use the mayflash magic-s pro ?

Yes with Hidtovpad.

Now that there's Bloopair as a homebrew app you may not even need Mayflash anymore I'm not sure though I use Hidtovpad Network Client.
