That's super cool, love to hear that it works well on Wii U as well. I've got a Wii U myself, but I do all my testing on an original Wii just because it's so much faster than building a whole separate injection any time I make a code change or whatever. It's also nice that I can "expand the Wii U library" like that, since as much as I love it, it's missing a lot of the weirder, more niche stuff that made the Wii great.I also wanted to say thank you very much for your hard work and effort. It's easy to ask about specific games to be classic controller hacked, but it looks very complicated from your documentation. I guess I need a masters degree in computer science to do that. Thought it would be easier like to fiddle around with a gecko code, but this is real magic you are doing here. Yesterday I have tested de Blob on the wii u gamepad and it feels like a different game, always ment to be for the wii u system
Whoops! Thanks for noticing this, I've updated the Rhythm Heaven codes with a v1.1 that maps the 1 and also 2 button, just in case.
Sorry, I'm not aware of anywhere these are available pre-built. Even I don't have them pre-built, since I test on a regular Wii with Gecko codes. Good luck!
Looks a bit more complex than most since you need to charge up your swings/pitches via motion controls, but nothing that seems impossible off the bat (pun). I'll add it to my list of games to investigate.Thank you for all the effort you've put into these
Do you think it would be feasible to make a CC hack for Mario Super Sluggers?
Whoops again! That's completely on me, you're not being dumb at all. I was using the fast cursor speed for testing and forgot to put it back to the intended one before releasing the code. I've edited the codes now, v1.1 has the "medium" cursor speed which is what I meant to release, but of course you can still edit it to any other value. Otherwise super glad to hear you're enjoying it! I'm pretty happy with this one since Wii U never got a real Animal Crossing. Admittedly, you could already play the GameCube one, but having the Wii game on GamePad is about as close as it gets to a native Wii U Animal Crossing.Thank you so much for this! I'm able to play ACCF on my Wii U with the gamepad now
The second (and final) chapter in Square Enix's Mario X Final Fantasy crossover sports series, Mario Sports Mix builds on Mario Hoops 3-on-3 aka Mario Slam Basketball by adding three more sports to the lineup with Hockey, Dodgeball and Volleyball. Looking deceptively spartan on first glance, most of the game's unique content is hidden behind the Tournament menu selection, which reveals a full story mode with unlockable characters and an unexpected final boss. Sports Mix saw a muted reception at launch because none of the games reached the depth of the dedicated single-sport Mario titles (at least the ones released up to that point; Mario Smash Tennis wasn't out yet!) and the
Highlight for @awesomeee, who asked about this game.

Button Mapping
In addition to the regular button-for-button mappings, Mario Sports Mix makes use of a couple of button/motion combinations. Since the Classic Controller had some leftover buttons after mapping the original functionality, button combos have also been placed on individual buttons for some functions. Also, there's four games in here, this table will get ridiculous if I cover every gameplay feature, so if I say that A means Pass, assume that A means Pass in sports where that's relevant (Basketball, Hockey, Dodgeball) and not in sports where it isn't (Volleyball), etc. You get what I'm saying here.| Wii Remote & Nunchuk | Classic Controller | Game Function |
|---|---|---|
| Wiimote Home | Home Remember to use the Right Stick | Open Home Menu |
| Wiimote D-Pad | D-Pad | Menus Navigation Gameplay Dodgeball Fake-Out (with Shake) |
| Wiimote D-Pad & Shake | R | Gameplay Dodgeball Fake-Out |
| Wiimote A | A | Menus Confirm Gameplay Pass |
| Wiimote B | ZR | Menus Cancel Gameplay Use Item |
| Wiimote A & B | X | Gameplay Special Move |
| Wiimote 1 & 2 | Not mapped | Not used? (I refuse to learn this lesson) |
| Wiimote Plus | Plus | Menus Settings Gameplay Pause |
| Wiimote Minus | Minus | Not used? |
| Wiimote Swing Down | B | Gameplay Jump/Shoot/etc. Volleyball Underhand |
| Wiimote Swing Up | Y | Gameplay Jump/Shoot/etc. Volleyball Overhand |
| Wiimote IR Pointer | Right Stick | Menus Navigation |
| Nunchuk Stick | Left Stick | Menus Navigation Gameplay Movement |
| Nunchuk C | L | Gameplay Switch with CPU Teammates |
| Nunchuk Z | ZL | Gameplay Basketball Trick Hockey Charge Shot |
General Notes
- I didn't mention it in the table above because it just complicates things, but you can also move left/right through menus with the L/R buttons. Not a big deal, but makes it feel slightly more "native" to Classic Controller. This is basically a complete accident. Since I was already mapping D-Pad+Shake to R for the Dodgeball Fake-Out move, I realized I could D-Pad Right and get menu navigation as a bonus feature, doing the opposite on L. Fun trick.
- It feels kind of extravagant to have two whole Wiimote Swing buttons when the game barely uses them (only Volleyball cares which direction you swing), but you know, oh well. This whole game is playable on a sideways Wii Remote, so we're overflowing with spare buttons anyway. Besides, I find the games feel more natural when using different buttons even though they ultimately have the same functionality: I like using Y to shoot for goal in Hockey, but B to jump in Basketball.
- Speaking of solo Wiimote, I considered pulling a Donkey Kong and doing a double CC hack allowing both control schemes to be emulated, but I don't think it's really warranted for this game. Where Donkey Kong is a 2D platformer and some players will prefer to play with traditional controls, there's no real benefit to the Wiimote control scheme here. It's just the same thing condensed down to fewer buttons and missing analogue movement controls. If you want to play on the D-Pad, you'll have to stick to using an actual physical Wiimote, sorry.
Technical Notes
Code breakdown:
C2,C2,04,04,04
Various Nunchuk checks. These are very brief, essentially just saying "Classic is fine too," we're not doing any actual input redirection in here, which I'll explain later.
C2
Down/Up Wiimote Swings inread_kpad_acc().
C2
IR pointer incalc_dpd_variable(); literally unchanged from Rhythm Heaven, so that paid off nicely.
04
I'm pretty excited about this one inread_kpad_ext(). In previous hacks for Nunchuk games, my approach has been to track down everywhere that the Nunchuk analog stick is read and add some code there to check whether this is a Nunchuk or Classic Controller, redirecting analog stick reads to the appropriate address for each. For this one, I am instead redirecting the Classic Controller left stick into the Nunchuk field, so that the original analog reading code works unchanged. The way KPAD works, the Classic Controller already uses this field, which was a problem before now, but ever since I switched to the new button injector, I'm actually injecting the buttons before they ever reach that address ...
C2
... which happens here inread_kpad_button(). After we've already read the Classic Controller button values, we say "I'm a Nunchuk, actually. Please don't bother processing the Classic Controller button values." This leaves the Classic Controller button fields, which are also the Nunchuk analog stick addresses, completely empty, allowing us to drop the Classic analog in there and have the game pick it up more easily than my previous approach.
