Well, here is the problem I have had for over a year.

My Wii will not allow me to use a gamecube controller in any game ran through homebrew. Although in things like the USB loader CFG I can navigate through the menus with one, only to not be able to use the controller once a game is actually loaded with it.

The games I try to run with it are all gamecube controller compatible games, such as Mario Kart, SSBB, and Sonic Colors.

all of my IOS are up to date

Gamecube controllers will work on non homebrew Wii things such as the normal disc channel.

I have looked all over the internet, re-installed the many programs like Gecko OS, Riivolution (or something similar, can't remember if that is the correct name/spelling), and USB loader CFG, as well as unhacking and re hacking my wii all together.

one thing which is interesting though, is if i run a game like Sonic colors which auto selects the controller when you first start the game, it auto selects the gamecube controller rather one is plugged in or not, making it to where I can not even play the game at all ( my main reason for posting at the moment ).

I would greatly appreciate any help with this, as it has been a thorn in my side for what seems like forever.

EDIT: Also, if there is any information which you want me to provide, just let me know

Have you ever find any solution?

I have a smilar issue.

I've bought a fake GC controller, it works well in Virtual Console games, but in Wiiflow and Nintendont analog stick drifts(GC games) or disconnects randomly (it only happened in Mario Kart Wii)

I've tested my controller with the Visual Controller Test homebrew app, it seems working well.

    I mean built in sound on mobo's has gotten way better but still XP handled sound better and X-Fi was still better than onboard audio even to this day
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Hell not sure what was going on but for like a few weeks MP3's sounded muffled, some driver or Windows update fixed it. Thank god lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Oh boy Massdrop has $1100 IEMs. Want, but not at that price lmao. https://drop.com/buy/campfire-audio-andromeda-emerald-sea-iem
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'd sooner buy the Meze 109 Pro if I was dropping that much on headphones. I don't even like buds/IEMs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I got the Google Pixel Pro buds, they're good enough for when I need portable audio. And some really cheap IEMs that Dankpods recommends, I think the KZ ZSN Pro

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd stick with cheapo Chinese $10 ones quality is actually becoming on pair with name brand since name Brand usually quads the price up anyway loose one bud that's another $200
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My Pixel Pro buds shit the bed a month or two ago. My wireless charger (which they do support Qi charging) absolutely COOKED them. Caused some problem that caused the case to heat up to 180F+
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    They were like 9 months out of warranty but I hit up Google support anyway and told them how hot they were getting and they replaced them with new ones because they wanted these for failure analysis lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol wireless charging
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why I can't bring myself to even spend $100 on wireless earbuds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it's a cool idea but damn
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Apparently the case has a problem with >15W wireless chargers. Google design fault, that one.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I could live with wireless charging if the damn standard case doesn't block connection
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    how is wireless charging possible?

    you mean generally, how does the concept work?

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Copper conducting electricity or something
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, power through a coil of wire causes an electromagnetic field to be generated. Another coil of wire can be set up to harness the power from that electromagnetic field and turn it into usable energy for charging a device
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Two good videos from ElectroBOOM that touch on the subject:
