Comment on What is the cheapest console to get and collect for that still holds up?
korendian@lemmy.zip 1 week agoI have been wondering about setting up wii controllers on my batocera box I built. I have no clue how to go about it, but I do know that there is an aiming setting for games like duck hunt. Not sure how easy it would be to set up overall, vs just using the actually wii I have directly.

If you have a compatible Bluetooth adapter (it can be hit or miss), you can select Real Wiimotes in the controller section of Dolphin, and make sure continuous scanning is enabled, then once a Wii game is running, you press 1 & 2 simultaneously on the Wiimote, and it’ll sync up (but certain controllers, like Wiimotes with motion plus built in may need you to use the dedicated sync button instead to sync).
You’ll also need a USB IR bar for the Wiimotes to function, which can be had for around 8 bucks from ebay.
However, I personally couldn’t get the Wii motion plus functionality to work in the handful of games that use it, and some games still don’t work right in dolphin, like Wii Sports Resort.
