      Hey everyone. I was wondering if it is possible to turn my wired usb NES, SNES, and N64 controllers into wireless controllers with my Raspberry 3. I know their are hubs with wireless adapters but would they work?

      Example

            I looked at this when you first posted and while I couldn't find any anecdotal information regarding game controllers, there are an overwhelming amount of negative reviews related to just about any other use you can think of. If these devices were cheaper, I'd personally take a chance one to try for myself, but the price tag is too high for such bad word of mouth. Maybe someone will report in here with a particular model that can be trusted.
