And this is how it looks, hooked up....

4,6 meter wire in total. Think it is enough, and with a wireless Windows dongle, I can use wireless 360 controllers too. I can also use Playstation controllers this way, wired or wireless. And the dongle can also be used on Playstation3, Switch and others. I can even use Xbox One and Series controllers.

Nice work! An adapter like this is worth the work.

Well.
Controllers that are +10 years old, are getting expensive to source these days. There are actually many reasons why I would build one. Old controllers getting unreliable is one such fine example. Now I can just grab any modern and use on my old first gen Xbox.

EDIT:
There are also the price point. If I have to buy a Brook Wingman XB adaptor today, a used Brook Wingman XB would cost me some 312 USD plus shipping, plus import fee, plus extra sales tax of 25% on top. Because it is located in the UK, that are outside the EU. As compared to my homemade adaptor, that I paid a total of some 23 to 24 USD in total. Sure I can buy an XB3 at some +60 USD plus shipping from France, but they are only compatible with Xbox One and up. And if I connect a wireless dongle to my homemade one, I can then use wireless controllers, that are compatible with that dongle.

I can also kick this dongle into Ps3 or other compatibility mode's. But the software are a bit lacking in playstation mode. Something with the Ps3 bluetooth protocol, sending continuesly data. Should be adressen on the next software release.
