I don’t see any existing driver named that way in mainline, would it be
acceptable to simply rename the current patches to hid-nintendo?  What
should be done about the existing hid-wiimote driver then, should it
also be merged alongside?

Another driver I’d like to submit eventually is the GameCube Controller
Adapter for Wii U, which does exactly what its name says, but being an
external USB adapter it also works on any USB computer; would it make
sense to develop it alongside the current driver, just because it is
sold by the same company?
FYI, I've submitted a GC adapter driver previously [1]. I've been using
it since then; the patch still applies to recent kernels. I'd be happy
to work towards having this driver mainlined, if there is interest for
it.
I am definitely interested!  I have been using a user-space driver for
the time being, but that’s not a good solution.
