Keyboard and mouse converter

[Dolby]

I don’t know anything about Nintendo - but someone is looking at this thing

He tried to explain what it does - but I really have no idea.

Is this not a simple USB hub?

No, it's not.. it takes the keyboard and mouse input, converts it to signals corresponding to that that the joy sticks send to the switch.. you program it to assign a specific keyboard/mouse press to one that corresponds to a function on the joy stick..

Thanks.

Ahhhh. Damn.

So nothing cheaper around that does the same thing?

I don't think you'll find much under $20.
