Does steam support joycons? (This is dumb but yeah :/)

[The Fruit Soup I am]

First thing first to start it off I play with the DS4 My brother decided to use the ps4 after he got a new game,Thankfully I do have a switch and joycons are my only choice now

I still play fps games with keyboard and mouse tho just asking if steam do suppport joycons so I can play games like broforce or cuphead.

Nintendo Switch Joy-Con?

[Julien, cut it out.]

I think each joy con is detected as a directinput controller. I.e. one joy con pair equals 2 controllers.
You need to use an XInput wrapper to avoid this behaviour.

Just use a wrapper.

Steam will detect it as a XInput Controller (Xbox 360/ Xbox One). Downside, Gyroscope won't work.

Yeah at least it will still have X,Y,B,A so it wont be really complicated to play some pc games that for some reason use xbox controls and buttons instead of the original

As of Version 7 of BetterJoy which was updated yesterday, gyro is "kinda" implemented but not working well for Joycons.

After trying some of the options above, I decided to use reWASD https://www.rewasd.com/

The main steps are:
- Add each joycon using bluetooth, the blue and red one by pressing the small round button
- Once they are paired launch reWASD and group them together
- Map the arrow buttons and the ABXY buttons, save the mapping
- AT this moment Windows will show a notification that a new device has been configured
- Open your game and enjoy

Here is a video that shows you how to configure it

I've already downloaded and configured Betterjoy, but I'm having issues with steam accepting it as a controller input. This is really the only controller I have, and I'd love to be able to use it with PC games. Any suggestions on how I could make this work, or would I need to just use a different driver like Ryujinx or reWASD?
