When pairing it appears to not pair correctly, if you right click and select properties the Wiimote information such as the Wiimote address is missing. Is there any way to pair Wiimotes using a pairing code, not sure if that would cause issues pairing without a code but the new Wiimotes could be using a secure bluetooth connection which requires a pairing code.
I don't think this is correct, because it is pairing just fine for me and it wouldn't be communicating with Dolphin otherwise. The new controller pairs with a different type of HID identifier than the old Wiimotes. The Wiimote isn't DESIGNED to work with a system that's not the Wii, so it's not sending all of the identifying information that the standard bluetooth protocol would normally transfer.

Probably going to require finding what the new Wiimotes are doing different and writing the code for it. This is my understanding from reading around but I don't think it's as complicated as needing to write a driver for it.
Yes, this is exactly what needs to be done. However: a custom HID driver would make it easier, because it is theorized that the Wiimote now uses some sort of non-standard protocol (not just screwing around with HID commands) to communicate. It would also decrease latency of the controls. Shuffle2 has confirmed this.
