I'd like to find a way to play emulator games on windows with both Dolphin, CEMU and Yuzu.


Dolphin - 4 Wii Remotes connected to mayflash dolphin bar (emulated wii adapter) and 4 Xbox One S controller connected to bluetooth (GC standard controllers)

CEMU - the same 4 Xbox One S controller connected via bluetooth (xinput wiiu pro controller)

Yuzu - the same 4 Xbox One S controller connected via bluetooth (custom, pro controller)



Would this work? Particularly:

1) Can Dolphin handle 8 controllers connected to it? How does the game "know" which of the 8 controllers I'd be using to play?

2) How are the Wii Remotes connected and would they cause issues with CEMU or Yuzu? I am not planning to use the Wii Remotes for CEMU games, but am worried they may be detected as they may also be xinput devices? And then prevent me to use the Xbox controllers.

Yes.

It depends on the game. Maybe it always picks Wii Remote 1, or maybe it picks the controller that you used to press A on the title screen.

If you are using mode 4 of the DolphinBar (which you should if you are using a DolphinBar with Dolphin), they will not show up as XInput devices and most programs will not detect them as controllers.

Perfect, thanks! So, I can even connect all 8 controllers (4 wiimotes over dolphinbar in mode 4, 4 controllers as xinput) and then mix & match between them when playing Dolphin games. Great!
