Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with vWii NAND Title Launcher forwarders created with TeconMoon's WiiVC Injector for two WiiWare titles: Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth (WD9E) and Contra ReBirth (WKTE), both NTSC.

Setup:
- Wii U with Aroma/Tiramisu
- WiiVCLaunch plugin installed, "Preserve SYSCONF" set to true
- WADs installed directly to vWii NAND (not patched, original)
- Forwarder created with TeconMoon using "Horizontal Wii Remote Emulation" mode
- Both games work perfectly when launched directly from vWii

Problem:
When launching through the forwarder from the Wii U menu, random buttons on the GamePad get "stuck" as if permanently pressed. It's always a different button each time (sometimes the D-pad, sometimes A, sometimes B). This makes the games unplayable.

What I've tried:
- All GamePad emulation modes in TeconMoon (Classic Controller, Horizontal/Vertical Wii Remote, Force Classic, Force No Classic)
- Patching the WAD before installing to vWii NAND → results in black screen
- WiiVCLaunch with Preserve SYSCONF = true
- meta.xml already has drc_use set to 65537

I understand the issue is in how frisbiiU.rpx handles the GamePad state during the Wii U → vWii transition. Is there a patched or improved version of frisbiiU.rpx that clears button states before transitioning? Or is there another approach to fix this?

Any help appreciated. Thanks!
