There is a way to use Priiloader to automatically boot to the homebrew channel rather than the Wii menu, IIRC.

In Priiloader, you go to Settings > Autoboot, I think is how it works. I'm not at home or I'd double check. Let me know if that works

Aside from that, I don't think there's a way to control the Wii Menu itself from a gamecube controller.

Set Priiloader to autoboot into USB Loader GX. It looks like the Wii Menu, and it can do most things the WIi Menu can, plus it can boot homebrew, games, and emuNAND channels, so it can serve as a mostly complete replacement for both the Wii Menu and HBC.

Technically yes.

Not that link per-se, but he released an IOS that allows for it to work, though IIRC you lose Wiimote support.

Once you have priiloader booting directly to hbc then you can run this app to load the disk all from with it the hbc menu which you can control with the gcc ; https://wiibrew.org/wiki/MinimaLauncher

If someone is interested in the original question, it's called RVLoader:

Uses the system wide feature GC2Wiimote.

I have been checking it for a while now. It seems to be dead. I wish he would have added Motion Plus support.
