Use Wii U Pro Controller as a Switch Pro Controller on Windows\Steam:

To do this you need a rather jank setup,

You need both the 8BitDo NES Classic Receiver and the 8BitDo GBros (With micro USB cable).
  1. You plug the 8BitDo NES Classic Receiver into the 8BitDo GBros Wii Classic Controller port.
  2. Then you plug the 8BitDo GBros into your PC using the micro USB cable.
  3. Then you pair the Wii U Pro controller to the NES Classic Receiver.
Now steam will recognize the Wii U Pro Controller as a Switch Pro Controller, It even has rubble/vibration support!
