It seems that I can get Dolphin to see them both in the correct slots, but as soon as I get to the 'press the power button on the balance board' screen the wiimote gets kicked into slot 4.

I tried adding the emulated remotes as you suggested, but to no avail.

Same here, it's awesome that progress is being made on this though! Just curious, any updates on the patch coming, etc?

Keep up the awesome work!

I just took a look at the Google source site and it looks like work on this is on hold for the moment. I hope it gets picked up again soon though! At least now it has its own branch.

Hello everybody,
I used this version of patched dolphin with the BB and it works perfectly with an emulated wiimote.

I tried also to connect a real wiimote following the instructions above but it didn't work.
I have a wiimote plus.

As some moths ago I had to make some actions to make my wiimote plus to work properly (use of Toshiba BT stack and use of specific dolphin release), I made a test ,setting on wiimote #1 the real wiimote and disabling any other wiimote, but my wiimote plus didn't work.

So that, I would like to ask to you:

does this version support wiimote plus or only the old wiimote?

Thanks in advance...

hi all,
Is there a definitive solution for that? it looks like the board balance works, but not with a real wimote. Is there some initiative to make it work or this should be like this until next releases?

Congrats for the great work done so far!

the led of the BB is out the whole time, also when I press the power-button on the BB.
when I start Wiifitplus, it says ingame: "press the sync buttons on the wii balanceboard and the wii console" (see attachment)
so obviously, it doesnt recognize the BB as BB
if I press the sync-button on BB, led starts blinking, nut after that, it isnt connected any more in dolphin...

Hello everyone!
Any solution for "Wii Fit Plus"?

I'm assuming it would be the same as getting normal wii fit to work. The board is the same.

I'm sorry, I meant "any new solutions for this unresolved issue" (Wii Fit / Wii Fit Plus)

No, no new developments I'm afraid.

Finally I got 3 games working using real wiimote (motion plus inside) & balance board !!!

System: Intel® Core™ i7-2600 CPU @ 3.4GHz, 16Gb RAM, Windows 7 Professional x64, BT Toshiba Stack, HK-760 Version 2.0 BT dongle (also worked with Eminent dongle)

Controllers: Balance Board RVL-WBC-01, Wiimote (Wii motion plus inside) RVL-CNT-01, Wiimote (Wii motion plus inside) RVL-CNT-01-TR, 2x nunchuk, 6V wireless sensor bar.

For the TR I found that some don’t work, after making connection with the BT stack they lose connection after a while. I found that those that let the LED’s blinking by pressing the B-button on the Wiimote connect and stay connected.

Using the RVL-CNT-01 (real wiimote position 1)& RVL-WBC-01 (real wiimote position 4) I got some games working.

Using the RVL-CNT-01-TR & RVL-WBC-01 the TR always takes position 4 and the BB position 1, so till now I had no luck with this configuration.

Of all the Dolphin emulator versions I tried, I was lucky with 2 versions: EmuCR-Dolphin-BalanceBoard-3.0-378-x64 & Dolphin-win-x64-v3.0-601
For some games U have to deselect the Dual-Core option in Dolphin, or there is a black screen at startup.


NOW THE GOOD STUFF: Games that I got working with the BB: Shaun White Snowboarding Road Trip, Shaun White Snowboarding World Stage, Super Monkey Ball Step and Roll

Super Monkey Ball Step and Roll works with EmuCR-Dolphin-BalanceBoard-3.0-378-x64, with Dolphin-win-x64-v3.0-601 there is an error : Compiling at 0. LR=8007ce50 CTR=00000000
Shaun White Snowboarding World Stage works with 601 & BB3.0-378

What I tried without luck:
As the RVL-CNT-01-TR always takes position 4 and the BB position 1, I could’nt play these.
When I try with the CNT-RVL-01 the wiimote connection gets lost with Dolphin:
Don King Boxing (2009), Family Ski & Snowboard, Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010.

Then some games that start with the RVL-CNT-01 & BB, but ask to connect the BB or to push the BB-button:
- EA Sports Active – More Workouts : when creating a new profile:
• Using the BB as a scale it keeps asking to step of the BB
• Final step of creating a new profile the game hangs
- Tetris Party Deluxe : asks to connect the BB
• I tried via wiiremote settings  reconnect
• Error: Hci_cmd_inquiry called
• Error: Can not find wiimote BD 00:00:00:00:00:00
- James Camerons Avatar The Games: same as Tetris: push the button

In the attachment file I have put the settings that I use to work with Dolphin Emulator and the BB.


I'm hoping this information is usefull for some people, and that the developers can use it to get more games working with the balance board.


All replies about progress are welcome. I also keep trying to get the games in the link to work with Dolphin Emulator and the BB.
