I don't even know... what to use for the emulator. - Mikomiko - 03-07-2012
I'm confused. I do have the controllers and everything, but I need to know some stuff about controls.
My gamecube controller is wireless, not an official one. I do have the wiimotes and sensor bar but have no idea how to put it in. Is it easier to use the keyboard for this? And if so, what buttons do I use? Help!

NO!, keyboards suck. The wii bar is just a light generator its not a computer peripheral. So all you need to do is buy a bluetooth adapter. Dolphin does the reset for you. The bar just needs to be powered up. If you can not power up your bar you can buy one that uses usb power. Again its not a usb device that needs drivers, just the power source.
as for your controller, is it a wave bird? I dont know of any other wireless ones. Most GC adapter do not support wireless GC controller like the wave bird. You can contact me on my sig about try one of my adapter to see if it works as I do support wave birds. Chances are good it will work with another.

just use usb bluetooth dongle to connect wiimote with your pc and pair it up via option--->configure wiimote setting in dolphin emulator, choose real wiimote in drop down option
For the keyboard, choose emulated wiimote and click configure, u'll c which buttons to use and u can change it or leave it by default, Mario Kart is a lot easier to me with keyboard and mouse

I don't have a gamecube... just a wii... So that explains it.
