Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Is there any way I can emulate a gamecube controller connected to an emulated WiiU gamecube adapter? I am trying to add support for the adapter to a homebrew, but I don't have such an adapter so I can't test it on console, and I was hoping I could test that in Dolphin. 

There is a setting "Gamecube Adapter for WiiU" under "Controller->Gamecube-Controller" but that displays "no adapter detected" and I assume that setting is so that I can use a physical gamecube adapter in Dolphin, making the game believe the USB adapter is an actual gamecube controller.  

Is there a way I can make a game believe that a virtual USB gamecube controller adapter is connected, and map its four controllers' buttons to keyboard buttons?

No. Dolphin only supports emulating controllers that are connected to the console's regular GC ports, not emulating an adapter connected to a USB port.

Would usb passthrough not work in this scenario?

Edit: I guess he probably doesn't have an adapter, considering he said he has no adapter connected. Oops
