Out of the box City Folk doesn't support the classic controller extension for Wii Remote, so injecting the game with Classic Controller, forced or not, didn't do a thing and your only option was to launch it regularly and have a Wii Remote. But the game had Nunchuck Support for 90% of interactions.
That's where this thread comes in https://gbatemp.net/threads/play-super-mario-galaxy-using-the-wii-u-gamepad.641530/
Repacking the game of choice with Gecko Codes for Classic Controller remapping was done for Super Mario Galaxy and injected with Nintendont. I just tried it for City Folk and it WORKS.
Grab the Classic Controller codes for your version of the game, in this topic: https://gbatemp.net/threads/new-classic-controller-hacks.659837/
Next, go to this site https://mariokartwii.com/gct/
Type in the TitleID of your version (US: "RUUE01", EU: "RUUP01") and give a title such as "Classic Controller" and paste in the codes from the other thread.
Download the GCT to a folder that's convenient which will contain just the WBFS or ISO rom of the game, and this file.
Basically from here you follow the Mario Galaxy Classic Controller guide but with this game instead. It's a nifty and quick guide to use. When the game has been repacked with the Classic Controller codes, just take the new Rom and Inject with WiiVCInjector or UWUVCI and use "Classic Controller" option in the Gamepad option.
And VOILA! You now have Animal Crossing City Folk (aka Let's Go to The City in Europe) fully playable on the Gamepad. Whenever you need the Wii Remote pointer, you push X on the gamepad, and steer the pointer with the analog stick of choice.
I hope this guide will help people who got stuck injecting this game, like I did.
