In late 2017, I connected a Wii replacement module (J27H002.00 LF) to my computer using the DIY USB hack documented elsewhere in the forums. I had assumed this was the "ultimate solution" and would not have to worry again about Wii remote connection and operation anymore. However, I've come to realize that I can't get it to work well with New Super Mario Bros. Wii, specifically. It is hard to get the Wii remotes to connect when the game starts and when they do, they will frequently disconnect for about 5-6 seconds while playing the game, rendering it unplayable.
I'm planning to attempt the hack again, but this time with an original WLM-C43 module. However, before I do that, I would appreciate it is somebody can confirm if they have these types of issues with NSMBW. I had previously noted that with Skyward Sword, if you press a button on the Wii remote too soon after the game loads, you will not be able to connect and will have disable/enable the module before trying again. I think the information in the Wii Bluetooth Passthrough wiki page should be updated to reflect that even the Wii's BT module is not an unqualified green "Yes" solution, and should have the "2" superscript appended to it, at least for J27H0002.
If you are using a Wii BT module in passthrough mode, would you mind checking if you have the problems described above with New Super Mario Bros. Wii?
