This is pretty amazing. Very nice work. The ability to use GameCube/Wii-U Pro controllers in standard Wii games has been a highly desired feature for many people.

I can't tell you the amount of times I've ran out of batteries for the Wiimote, and wished the GameCube controller would at least work the Wii's home menu.

 

Thanks everybody for the nice comments

Yes, I will release it as soon as it will be ready (hopefully I will release a working beta soon-ish). The first release will disable the use of real wiimotes (it patches out the BT module), so only GC controllers will be supported. Actually only one wiimote will be emulated, but I plan on adding support for multiple emulated wiimotes and also allowing both real and emulated wiimotes to be used at the same time (this is a bit more complex, but still doable).

The motion plus is also emulated, but as you can imagine not many games that use the motion plus are suitable to be played with buttons.

The configurator will be an homebrew for the Wii, so it can detects the games on your drive and allow you to make per-game configuration files. Although a PC software is definitely doable (windows, linux, OS X, whatever).

This is a bit harder, mostly because it would need multiple configurations per each game (one for the menus, one in game, ...) and automatically detecting which one is needed is not straightforward.

 

This looks great i cant wait to play mario galaxy with my gamecube controller since my motion sensor isnt working anymore and its a pain to buy batteries
i hope we get a release soon
it would be good to make a thread with configuration for each game here on Gbatemp
Good luck on this project
EDIT: would something like the usb controller emulation on nintendont be possible with this on wii mode?

 

Great Work! Please Keep it up
