Hello, friends.
This is my first thread here so please be gentle.
I recently came across a Bluetooth controller mod for GameCube:
The guy that came up with it posted the code and board files so others could try:
I'd really like to have one of these but I'm not techy enough to try something like this. I've found someone that would be up for trying it as they do various console mods, but he said I'd need to source the board. Does anyone have any idea where I would start for something like this, is there somewhere in the UK or Europe I could send the link above to and pay to print me the board? Any tips or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I take it this is for the Wavebird?

I take it this is for the Wavebird? I think it may be compatible with the wired controller or the Wavebird. |

Quick tek in the UK is the only PCB place I know of that will do individual orders, could be worth giving them a call

I still have a boxed wavebird which is worth a bit now. Also have an adapter to use it for PC which also lets me use N64 and PlayStation 1 controllers.  This is it used to use it a lot when I was messing with n64 emulation. |

These guys sponsor the RMCRetro YouTube channel so they definitely ship to the UK www.pcbway.com/ |

Whoa, the UK site (Quick Tech) quoted about £200+ for one of these pre-assembled. I've spent crazy amounts collecting gaming stuff but I think I'll stick to the USB GC controller adapter and deal with wires. Or the 8Bitdo Bluetooth adapter, which unfortunately doesn't work with the Wavebird receiver, so I'll need to stick to wired controllers only.
I tried to play Metroid Prime on Dolphin with an Xbox One controller, and whilst I customised the controls (e.g. making B on the controller function as A), it just didn't feel right.

I've been using one of these adapters www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00RSXRLUE?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_titlewith dolphin on PC. Works perfectly; not sure if it is Wavebird compatible though. |

Oh, I have the one from Nintendo. I think both of these will work with the WB. The only reason the 8bitdo Bluetooth adapter doesn’t work is because I can’t attach the receive to it - the plastic around the port of the adapter has an indent and I can’t attach the receiver to the port. |
