What a cool idea... it looks great for a few of those games, too.

That was interesting. I had no idea the bongo drum buttons worked like that. That could lead to some interesting mapping possibilities.

Yeah, I'd have never thought of this. I do have a cruddy Chinese GC/Xbox/PS2-to-PC adapter, but I never thought of using it for this... I don't know if it'd work, the thing isn't great and you would definitely need some remapping software, but it's very cool that this actually works. Just need to work a bit on the 'clap' command...

I'd stick with the official Gamecube to USB adapter myself. They've got them restocked at a few places if you're looking for one. Now, the Windows drivers, those are still unofficial, but they do work.
