How to Use Wii & WiiU Controllers - on PC - Play Emulators & Xbox Gamepad Supported Games

[@theeducationcollaboration6089]

Thank you very much. We were trying to find an inexpensive way to bring controllers into classrooms and since we already have Wiis, your video makes it easy to use Wii remotes for computer courses. We provide programs to schools that are on tight budgets so your video did more than just give a tutorial, it may actually help enrich learning for schools that otherwise could not afford extra controllers. Thank you again.

[@derpy973]

This helped me so much! You have no idea how many websites I had to go through to find you! One website even said I had to hack to get it to work, so thank you for showing me a clean way!

[@Astraeus..]

The Wii-U Pro controller is probably one of the most overlooked and under-rated controllers you could ever get. It's ultra-light weight and the battery is godly; it's fully built-in and lasts forever, as in easily twice the battery life of the Sony or Microsoft alternatives.

[@GameInCanada]

Youre 100% right. I charge it once a month

[@SirTarokei]

Excellent video! I watched this on 1/1/2022 and it worked! (I used Win10, Wiinusoft 3.4, Generic Bluetooth Dongle, 2 Wiimotes + Wii Classic Controller). Just one thing that happened to me. When installing the SCP driver, I had to uncheck the Bluetooth Box that appears in the window dialog (the video shows it checked) because if I install it while being checked, the driver disables my bluetooth and its impossible to pair anything (since its disabled and doesn't show on Win10). Aside from that, it works wonders! Since the program makes it to detect the wiimote+classic controller as a xbox controller, you can also use it on Steam/Epic games launcher without problem!

[@devsharmaaa24]

could you please tell me how did u connect the wii classic controller cause i dont see a sync option in my wii classic controller

[@SirTarokei]

@@devsharmaaa24 I'm not sure what you mean. The Wii Classic Controller (and the Wii Classic Pro Controller, they are the same) is the one that connects to the wiimote like a Nunchuk would. It doesn't have its own sync button because it depends on the wiimote it is connected to. It is very different to the Wii U Pro control which has its own sync button. If you are actually using a Wii Classic Controller, just connect it to a wiimote and sync it (using the wiimote's sync button), the program will detect it as a Wii Classic Controller allowing it to use the extra buttons correctly.

[@hyliaforce]

Thank you much! I tried to do this a couple of months ago and couldnt do it, your guide made is super easy to understand how it works

[@2DCheese]

it says it failed to sync when I tried to use the Wii Remote and my Wii U Pro Controller refuses to connect (it was working fine when I first used this then I used the Wii U again since then and synced it to that. am I supposed to unsync it from the Wii U?)

[@r-ayla]

Thank you so much for this, it works perfectly. Be aware this software replaces your bluetooth driver, so if you want to connect your device just via "Windows Bluetooth", uncheck the "Bluetooth Driver" box during installation and everything will remain the same. No problems in use and you still have your bluetooth functions. If you select to replace your current bluetooth driver, the recognition will be more fast and automatio, it's like dolphin's bluetooth passthrough. Anyways, the program works perfectly both ways, thank you a lot. Really!!!!

Does it work with steam games,like cup head?

[@zen5066]

Mine is loading forever and it doesn´t find anything. Yes i have bluetooth Fixed : Don't connect the controller with the Bluetooth "Manager" , do it directly with Wii Soft or whatever it's called. Further explanation in answers below👇

[@ashimates]

I know its been 3 years since this was made, but thank you so much! I thought I was doing something wrong

[@zen5066]

@supesta usually you connect stuff with your windows Bluetooth software thing right, don't do that. Remove that remote from your connected devices and then connect directly via the Wii remote software.

hey, when I try to sync my Wiimote (the one with the Motion Plus built in) WiinUSoft finds it but immediately says "Failed to pair". Why is this? thanks

[@GameInCanada]

+Fulano De Tal are you pressing any buttons? That can cancel it out even pressing sync while the controller is trying to pair with no passcode it will register that input as passcode. But maybe thats not your issue? Have you tried to pair it through your normal bluetooth settings in windows

I have the same problem, i have tried normal windows settings aswell (same with my pro controller)

Sometimes my controller even shows up in WiinUsoft and I can verify it and everything but when I go to start a game it says "No Controller". I have a feeling in order to have the games work I must be able to sync the controller in WiinUsoft by pressing the red button on the back of my Wii remote. But for some reason it won't sync anymore. I really don't know what's wrong as I've tried everything..
