Will the wii remote work on old games

[wolf231]

I was just wondering will the wii remote work on old games cause it would be pretty good if it did.

 

[King Wiired]

What do u mean by 'old games' ? like VC?

 

[wolf231]

No game cube.

 

[Jaz]

No, as they obviously weren't programmed for the Wii

 

[King Wiired]

Agreed with Jaz also thread been done before homie

 

[wolf231]

Yeah but it would be good if it did.

 

[Jaz]

Yeah, but the Wiimote wouldn't do anything in the game

 

[RPGMasterTurk91]

yea jaz is right, infact--the GC doesnt even have the right/same ports as the Wiimote ports, i thought there were seperate ones

 

[wolf231]

Maybe you get an adaptor so it plugs in the Wii controller ports and you plug in the GC controller there.

the wii has 4 controller ports and they are all GC controller ports. idk what you guys are talking about with wii controller ports because why would a WIRELESS controller need a port? the GC controller ports are under a flap on the top of the system

It isn't hardware, it is software. The gamecube games weren't designed for the Wiimote.

 

[wolf231]

This is hardware, a controller is hardware, Duh :crazy:

 

[Jaz]

Dude - lets just end this, the Wii wont work on a GC game, as it wasn't programmed to do so.

Thank you.

Out of curiosity, what wouldn't work about it? Aside from the obvious, that the motion sensor and tracking wont work, the wireless should still work. And since the wiimote+nunchuk have both analog stick, and all the required buttons (?) they should still work for any game.

Just curious.

 

[wolf231]

Good point, flip.
