can you use the gamecube controller for wii u on wii games

The most common causes of this issue are: It would even make the GameCube controller wireless, as it would be connected to the Wii U via the Wii remote's Bluetooth (or, in my case, double wireless as I'd be using a Wavebird!).Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests. I'm trying to work out what to buy for my Wii U so that I've got everything covered (Nintendo really need to sort their controller situation out, it's ridiculous, I feel like I need to buy 10 different kinds of controller and adapter!) and I think one of those is the best all-round solution.

Those still work with the Wii U and would enable you to play N64 VC games in vWii mode with a GameCube controller. However, there is another kind of adapter (like this one from Mayflash, so third party) that will connect a GameCube controller to a Wii remote and have the Wii recognise it as a Classic Controller. ( Nintendont also enables the use of a Wii U Pro Controller, which is otherwise restricted to Wii U mode only, for GC games.) Unfortunately that doesn't make the controllers work with anything else in vWii mode so you'll still need a Classic Controller for VC games.

It won't work on any Wii U games, Wii U VC games, Wii games in vWii mode (including Smash Bros Brawl, which is supposed to have GC controller support!) or any Wii VC games in vWii mode.īut yes, unofficially it will work with Nintendont, so you'll be able to play GC games in hacked vWii mode using an original GC controller, so at least that's something.

Officially it only works with Smash Bros on the Wii U.
