and 12v at 2.5 a

Maybe? Entirely depends on if that charger supports outputting the required voltage and amperage. Check what's written on the back of the back or the specs sheet of the brick. For all we know you could be talking about like some ancient 30-pin iPhone charger from way back when.

If it supports outputting the required voltage for the console at at least 3a then yes. Only thing that *might* work with 2a or 1.5a (at 12v!!!) would be the final revision (RVO-CPU-10) of the Wii Mini which draws just above 12 Watts during game play.

this is better than the ZYPDH ?
That entirely depends on what you're trying to actually do. If its just playing on an unmodified console, a PDC004 will be just fine with it's limit of 3a at voltages below 20v (USB-PD does not officially support >3a on below 20V). If you'll want to play an overclocked Wii U you may want to use ZYPDH with a QC compliant charger because QC supports 5a (or maybe even 7a?) on voltages below 20v.

If the charger delivers enough power...then it should work. But I bought a 65w charger and am happy with it.
and the kind of power supply with multiple usb c and usb outpout that sit on your desk, do you know one that is good and that cost not to much and that can handle 100 w

what is the best cheap avalaible for cheap in one piece
Instead of printing a dongle like this (which is a good alternative), I would recommend to buy a USB c cable from aliexpress. Or solder in the USB c board directly and mount it with this piece from this reddit thread. Looks nice imho. And no cutting required.
