Automating Nintendo Switch inputs using Pi Pico
Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me with this project. Let me start by saying I have NEVER done any sort of programming or projects using Pico before. I am completely brand new to this so you might have to really spell it out for me to understand (sorry and thanks in advance)
My goal is to be able to preset some inputs to my Raspberry Pico Pi Pico 2 that just came in today. I’ve searched all over the internet on how to do this project, but can’t find any instructions for this. The closest thing I’ve found is turning the Pico into a controller, or using it as an adaptor so I can use controllers for different consoles on the Nintendo.
The closest thing I’ve found was some pretty spelled out instructions from Chat GPT, but I don’t really trust that I just feel like it won’t be correct.
But yea, my goal is to be able to preset certain inputs to the Pico (such as “Delay 23, press A, delay 34, press A), and then plug it into my Nintendo, and my Nintendo will read it as a controller and hit the frame-perfect inputs. That is basically how chat gpt tells me it has to be done, by loading the code onto the Pico and then transferring it to the Nintendo. If that’s the process, sounds great to me.
