That's unfortunately a known issue. These two games spam the adapter with commands repeatedly, and there are adapters which can't keep up with that. It's less severe in Skyward Sword, which only does that before you get in-game, but NSMBW does that during the whole game, and this can cause connection drops or stuck remotes.

(Technically, the game is sending 120 commands per second, and it's expecting them to be acknowledged by the adapter. If this doesn't happen (because the adapter failed to keep up), the game will keep waiting for a reply until it times out, and during this time, it'll stop transferring anything else from/to the adapter)

Emulated Bluetooth shouldn't be having this issue though…

I didn't know it was more than a week old, I looked at the date the article was posted on the main site. (24th October)
But it is weird, when that happens, Dolphin usually informs me, and that often happens when I connect more than 2 Wiimotes.

Edit: Just so you know, I am using an Intel Wireless Bluetooth adapter integrated into my laptop. (VID: 8087 PID: 07DC)
