A wireless peripheral controller connects multiple wireless game controllers to a game console across a communication port. A connector simulates the appearance of connecting a device to another communication port. Upon detecting the connection event, the game console queries the communication port associated with the connection event. A bus reset detector alerts the wireless peripheral controller. The alerted wireless peripheral controller signals the game console through the original communication port with the appropriate configuration instructions to obtain a unique device address for an additional wireless game controller. Using the unique device addresses, the wireless peripheral controller receives and responds to traffic intended for other communication ports through the original communication port.
