Thank You..
Screen shots would be amazing if possible

That really depends on the game. Most Wii games don't natively work with a gamepad (for those that do, it should be pretty obvious how to map an SN30 Pro to a Wii Pro gamepad as all the buttons have the same name), so you need to figure out what motions of a Wiimote match which actions in-game, and then pick a button you want to press to trigger the action. Obviously, that needs doing per-game, and while you can often download profiles for popular games, you're likely to find you'd want to tweak them a little (or a lot) to match your personal preferences.

Ahhh,
Ok Thank you, very new to the whole emulation thing . Have a BOX that someone built but it's all set up.. so just play on it
Should I get actual wii remotes? and will they sync up to a mac with Bluetooth?
I appreciate any advice ... I did get one to partially work but everything was ass backwards
where would I go to download the profiles?
I appreciate any and all advice
