Using Gamecube controllers on Windows 8?

[EleventhMercury]

Hi, I recently began playing Windwaker on my computer, since I just got a new PC. I found out that there is an adapter which lets you hook up 2 Gamecube controllers to your PC.

Here it is.



Problem is, I have Windows 8, and this is meant for Windows 7. Does anyone know if it would be possible to use this on my PC? Thanks.

As long as it works with default drivers (or if the drivers that came with the adapter are compatible with Windows 7) the adapter should work fine in Windows 8 too, but you won't know until you try...

If it came with drivers see if you can return it. Like Jhonn said the default drivers ( HID ) is the best option. Most all adapter out there use them and there is no need for troublesome drivers.

The newest MayFlash GC adapter includes drivers to make rumble work.

That is very common. It took a lot of work to make a driverless rumble feature, so I dont expect to see too may products rumble without one. Most times the controller will work without using a driver just no the rumble.
