Crazy Nintendo...

I guess that puts us adapter creators back on the task.

Well that is dumb

Doesn't mean it won't be usable on a PC (unless they do something dumb like use volatile firmware uploaded by the game). It was obvious it would never work on wii games because they have no method to patch in support.

The points is more over that they made the claim it would work then came back and said, well no that was wrong it will only work with one wii game. The other issue is that it won't work on wii mode either, killing the virtual console games from using.

Though it seems like the link won't work on the dolphin forums. Not sure what the deal is there?

Here is a link that points to it.

But it was obvious they were talking out of their ass, how can a controller with only one L trigger, no minus/select, no home button and no clickable sticks be used without any problems in every game that uses the classic/wiiu pro?

My immediate guess was that it was to be used in conjunction.
