Hoping to get controller support for MicroPython w/ LEGO Boost, RP2040js etc, I researched a bunch of Bluetooth BLE + C/Python links here: https://github.com/pybricks/support/issues/262#issuecomment-... :

- [ ] MicroPython: wrap the Bluetooth HID over GATT Profile events and buttons

Perhaps your Dreamcast controller could do BLE and VMU wireless.

Really interested in putting together some kind of USB host to HID over GATT profile or Bluetooth HID to i2c/UART bridge.

We’re (Pimoroni) closing on shipping a dual RP2040 HDMI board (PicoVision) that’s great for bedroom coder style games, but lack of full fat Bluetooth support or USB HID host in MicroPython - and the relative pain of making and supporting a build that includes these features - make adding controllers… tricky.

Now I wish I’d kept the Dreamcast controller I modded with a custom cable to poke Maple bus. Hindsight!
