PLEASE READ

GameCube extension cables are known to bend the pins on the controller connector. Similar products that cause this damage include the Raphnet GameCube to N64 adapter. Controllers will often times remain functional, but the pins become un-seated from the plastic which allows them to get pushed in further.


If you have previously used a controller with one of these extensions or products, the Pocket Adapter will bend the pins in your plug to an unusable state. We recommend swapping your cable if you have used it with any of these extension type products.

Buttons

There are two buttons to cycle back and forth through modes. When no controllers are connected, the buttons will toggle between modes showing an LED color to the corresponding mode. Controllers must be unplugged to toggle through modes.

Modes

To use the Switch mode, you need to enable "Pro Controller Wired Communications" in the "Controllers and Sensors" portion of the Nintendo Switch settings menu.
