DolphinBar, NVIDIA Shield TV, and WiiFit. - IntelMacGuy - 09-03-2018

Before I buy the Dolphin bar does anybody know if it works with WiiFit?

Also does 3rd party Wiimotes work with the Dolpinbar?

Dolphin is free.
Wiimote I think work.

There isn't anything that wouldn't make it work with Wii Fit in particular, but I'm not sure how good the DolphinBar compatibility is in general on Android right now. It seems like at least some people are getting it to work.

They're not asking about Dolphin, they're asking about the Mayflash DolphinBar.

I can't get the DolphinBar to work with my Shield since the 7.0 (aka, Android O) update. Dolphin crashes as soon as a game starts when DolphinBar is used. Using something else (emulated WiiMote, etc.) works, so it's something in the DolphinBar/USB code with Android that's borked in newer OS releases.

So there is currently a bug when using some wiimotes that crashes emulation. One way to avoid the crash is to smash buttons for the first 5 seconds. This will not guarantee it won't crash later but most times it is fine.

Also, you have to do this for all wiimotes connected if you have 2+ connected.

I have no clue on the wiifit stuff, may work, may not.

Looks like that fixes it for me.
