How do you get a GameCube controller to work on the Wii?

Answer 1

At the top of your Wii base unit is a door. Inside of this door are two ports into which you plug the sending unit which once active communicates with your wireless Block Head Controller. I hope this helps you out. Goodness knows it took me a while to find this and figure it out. Good luck, and happy gaming.

Answer 2

There is a spot on the Wii where you can take off a piece revealing gamecube controller sockets plug in a gamecube controller and right next to this area on the Wii you can find a spot for gamecube memory cards, once you have the controllers plugged in play either a gamecube game or a Wii game that is compatible with the gamecube controller Example: Super Smash Bros Brawl and then just use the controller to play the game.

Answer 3

The Wireless controllers come with a plug much like the wired variants. Plug this into the Wii's Gamecube ports and then turn on the controller and make sure that both the controller and dial on the plug are set to the correct channel (sometimes 3 and often times 4).

Answer 4

there is a flap on top that you open. There is where the four gamecube ports are.

Answer 5

only on some games like super smash bros brawl and Mario Kart wii.

put the receiver in the same place as a normal GC controller, in the slots on top.

Answer 6

Answer 7
