I just watched yesterday's Gold Rush episode and I am glad to see Tony's dredge working again.

My new adapter #

Tuesday, February 13, 2024 at 3:10 PM

I just received my new "GameCube to Wii U" adapter I bought on Amazon.

It allows me to play Wii games with my GameCube controller on my iMac in Dolphin.

It works with Mario Kart Wii.

I had to install a driver :

I just killed a wasp my mom's cat was chasing in the living room. My dad thinks it came through the fireplace.

I successfully connected a Wiimote to my iMac ! #

My iMac is running Sonoma 14 with the latest Dolphin.

- Buy the TP-Link UB400 adapter (UB500 will not work. I tried it), plug it in and set Dolphin to Bluetooth passthrough.
- Start the game.
- Press the red sync button on the Wiimote and the Sync button in Dolphin.
- The Wiimote should now work as remote 1.

Before closing the game, do not forget to turn off the Wiimote by holding its Power button or weird things will happen.

What if you truly believe what you say ?

So much that, to yourself, you're not lying.

Would you pass the test ?
