3DSUSBController-Homebrew is a three-part software system that allows you to use your 3DS as a cross-platform USB gamepad1. It requires Java and a Teensy development board (or board with USB Serial and Joystick capabilities that can be programmed using Teensyduino)1. The system consists of three parts: 3DSUSBController-Server, 3DSUSBController-Homebrew, and 3DSUSBController-USB-Device.
Setup
- Follow the steps in each repo (3DSUSBController-Server, 3DSUSBController-Homebrew, 3DSUSBController-USB-Device) to build/install all required software.
- Connect Teensy to computer
- Start server (
java -jar *.jar <Address> <Port>) - Start homebrew
- Enter address and port of server on 3DS (Example:
192.168.1.12:8080)
You can exit by pressing Start and Select simultaneously (button down on same frame). I recommend spamming to get it right. You can use the touchscreen as the IR pointer in Dolphin. I use this as the input expression for Hide: Full Axis 2+` > 0.99999 | `Full Axis 3+` > 0.99999
Building
(requires devkitPro 3ds-dev):make
Changelog

Disclosure
I did not know C when I made this project. I went back and cleaned it up a bit, but it's entirely possible that there are glaring errors or bugs in this. However, I have not yet had issues with it.
