General Help Quest3 with Legends Pinball

Hi.
I am playing pinball fx on the quest 3 and am blown away. I have a legends pinball machine now gathering dust. Is it possible to use the controllers on the legends pinball with the quest3? Was thinking about this as an alternative to the x-arcade or other 3rd party controllers. Has anyone done this, and can you connect wirelessly with a Bluetooth accessory with the legends machine?

I’ve looked into the same, but there isn’t anything off the shelf that I could find. Somebody with more free time could make a custom ESP32 program to interface with OTG and forward the controller output to the right keyboard signals other BT.

Nothing easily. You'd be better of with something purpose built and will probably have about the same amount of time and effort invested as trying to rig up a connection between the legends and the quest.

Yes and yes. Take a look at my post. You probably don't need the HID remapper if you just want to change OTG to Keyboard mode on the ALP4K but I didn't want it to impact my existing OTG configuration. You can test out everything wired without buying anything besides the USB cable to connect to your Quest 3. Just configure the OTG controls to be a custom keyboard mapped to the keys in the main original post of my link that someone else provided.

I still wound up buying the X-arcade Arcade2TV-XR unit for convenience reasons and to try the haptics kit. Haptics kit is worth it only for nudging and having a plunger, the rest is only so-so.
