Life finds a way. Believe I played botw just this way on Linux, even launching another app to enable gyro controls to translate into the steam inputs. Different controller, think with yuzu launched through steam.
good to know it can work!
That's wild, I was just talking about using it with my actual old switch. I've got the Pro 2 (the one on the left) and it pairs between the switch and my computer pretty seamlessly. I'm so much more basic than I thought, reading these replies!
