This was my attempt to create a a SNES to Bluetooth adapter. It works but the average latency was 18.35ms, which I think is too much to be considered a good controller.

Yeah one approach is that BLE-Gamepad library supports gpio pins as button inputs, so in theory I could get a baseline of what the Bluetooth stack of the library is by soldering the jst connector to connect the Arduino (that triggers the button presses and measures the result from the Mister SNAC port).

Otherwise I'd basically have to develop my own controller code to port onto various Bluetooth stacks for testing, but that seems like more than I want to do right now.
