Games Are Disconnecting Controllers Needed To Play - calvinm - 12-21-2015
I have 4 wireless Xbox 360 controllers setup as emulated wiimotes with classic controller extensions. All 4 controllers are recognized and play fine in Super Smash Bros Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, Madden NFL 12, NBA2K12, NBA Jam, Rayman Origins, and WWE 12.
When I play Castlevania Judgement and Geometry Wars Galaxies, there is a readout message that says "wiimote 3 disconnected by emulated software" and "wiimote 4 disconnected by emulated software", and 2 of the controllers are recognized and play fine in 2 player mode.
When I play Conduit 2, Goldeneye 007, Madden NFL 13, Need For Speed The Run, and Sonic SEGA All Star Racing, There is the same readout message plus an additional message that says "wiimote 2 disconnected by emulated software", and only the first controller is recognized and none of the multiplayer options respond, perpetually waiting for controllers 2-4 to connect.
I cannot imagine why these games that were designed for local muliplayer disconnect all but 1 controller when booting up. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Just to be clear I have also played these game images on a wii via Wiiflow with 4 wiimotes with nunchucks and they worked fine and recognized all 4 controllers using the same multiplayer options.

I am getting the same problem with a few games. My second Wii mote is being disconnected when I start up the games.

I am also having this problem. I am able to connect all 4 wiimotes on some games just fine, but on others, only the 1st wiimote maintains a successful connection.
The 2nd,3rd,4th wiimote connects for like a second (the correct corresponding LED lights up) but then the message pops up saying they were disconnected by the emulated software.
Opening the wii home menu at this point in time allows all 4 wiimotes to connect correctly. But upon exiting the menu back into the game, they get disconnected again.

Sorry, forgot to add. I'm using the latest development build and am NOT using -TR controllers.
