I am planning to create a rudimentary wireless controller using a pico WH with 3 buttons, a switch, a thumbstick and a rgb screen. I'm completely new to microcontrollers and whatnot, I am doing this for a college project and I plan to create a tekken clone in unity for the controller inputs to work in. How feasible is this controller idea and should I just quit while I'm ahead or is it something which can be done with relatively little jankyness?

these are the parts i plan on buying for the project

i plan to use the built in wifi of the pico to do the wireless connection but if it's unreliable i may switch over to a wired connection

I'm also going to code the project in C# if that's a issue

It's very feesable and definitely don't quit

No not really

Nothing I can prepare you of without stripping your experience away. I don't want to give you the answer so you can learn (and also I'm a little lazy 😉)

oops.se

I would recommend to divide it into the different parts and get familiar with each before combining them into a project.
