Hardware Wii wireless nunchuck

[MO35AB]

I got a wii from a facebook marketplace dude, when i received it, i discovered that the included wireless nunchuck doesn't have its dongle included, any idea of a work around ? there are tips on YouTube on how to use a wireless mouse when you lose its dongle... so ... maybe ...

There seems to be few different types of this.

This is a Nyko Kama. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyko_Kama

You'd need to reverse engineer the wireless dongle (probably uses a common wireless band already approved by the FCC) then somehow figure out how it connects to the wiimote, and have it communicate with each other.

Luckily, you have some of the work cut out for you since someone has somewhat already poked at it. https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wiimote/Extension_Controllers/Nunchuck#Nyko_Kama

Looks like the FCC has kindly given some schematics for it, but you'd still need the firmware at that point.

Someone has already reverse engineered the GameCube's Wavebird, so it'd be a good reference point.

tl;dr You need the dongle - no way around it. It's a fuck ton of effort trying to get this dinky little accessory working.
