Since these drivers share no common code, merging them will result in a big driver with different parts for unrelated hardware (save for the maker company), which doesn't seem right. For the gamecube adapter driver, I'd prefer to keep it separate; but I'll integrate it to hid-nintendo as Emmanuel did for the wii-u if that's the preferred option.
