I want to be able to use my Switch Pro Controller on Mario Kart Wii Ctgp. Are there plans for emulating the classic controller in order to play vwii games?

That has nothing to do with this as this as a Wii U homebrew and to answer your question:
No, this is probably not gonna happen as it has been asked (and answered) multiple times. Enabling other input devices for Wii games would require to patch every single game.
 
anyone know if this supports multiple keyboards at once? i want to run a puyo tetris tournament and have 2 keyboards in slots 3 and 4 as backup for players who can't bring a wii u compatible controller
 
i have only been using a wiiu for the past week so i'm not really up to speed with the in's and out's of the console yet, i have tried this app and it works very well as last night i was playing BOTW with my dual-shock 4 controller. i had this selected as controller 1 as well as the game pad, the problem i had was after a while the screen would dim as i was not using the wiiu game pad so i would have to keep touching the screen on the game pad to brighten the screen. if i made the DS4 as the wiiu game pad in the selection screen would this stop me having to keep touching the screen. then i wouldn't have to have the wiiu game pad turned on after starting BOTW.
 
@Maschell
I ordered an 8BitDo SNES controller which - as you may know - can be used on the Switch as well.
There it emulates the Home button by pressing DOWN + SELECT.
Could that be made through an ini file for the Wii U as well? And more importantly for RetroArch?

It's normal the rumble, NFC and Gyro/Motion is desactive in Switch Pro Controller with USB Cable on Wii U ? ( Sorry for my english again )

That's normal, those features haven't been implemented and probably won't be for quite a while.

In another note, why the hell are people getting Switch Pro Controllers to use on the Wii U? at that point just buy a Wii U Pro Controller.

They aren't buying them for the wii u. They are buying them for the switch, and just want to use them on wii u as well instead of also buying wii u pro controllers.

Thanks for answering, In my case, it is much easier (and sometimes cheaper) to find things from the Nintendo Switch than to the Wii U, Wii U Pro Controller is very rare in Brazil for some reason ( except for the Chinese pirate models )

And I Use my Switch Pro Controller not just for the Wii U, but in my smartphone and PC for Steam games too, I intend to sell the Wii U to pick up the Switch soon, so in my opinion it was worth it a lot more to get the Switch Pro Controller than to try to find an original Wii U Pro Controller.

PS: Another doubt, I'm try to use HIDToVPADNetworkClient-0.4, but when I click on ''Scan for Controllers''
nothing happens, I'm try to use my Switch Pro Controller or DualShock 3 and 4 but
none of them appear, but I know the control is connected because I'm using Switch's to play on the PC right now xD

Because it's the best controller Nintendo has ever made. It's even a bit better than the GC controller.
I bought it for the Wii U and I don't regret it.
Of course I'm using it on PC and Smartphone as well and one day I'll surely buy a Switch but until then I'm using it with this fantastic app.
