thats a very good question... i know that you cant play any wii games, only wii u... but outside of that i dont really know

Yes it can, but for wii virtual console games, you'll need a classic controller. For Wii U though, it should work with any vc game.

Yes, but some games may not be compatible with it. It depends on the title.

If the controller connects into the Wii Remote, then I would assume so. IF you are talking about the new controllers modeled after Gamecube Controllers, then they should definitely work, since they act like classic controllers.

This is only compatible with the Wii U. You will need to get a Classic Controller to hook into the Wii Remote to get a similar experience on the Wii.

I just had my son test it. You can NOT use the game pad you need a Wii remote

I would.. you can't use the N64 controller on virtual console. (It sucks having to use the gamepad to play Super Mario 64) ..plus, the N64 is a classic, and nice to have an actual system. Nintendo definitely isn't gonna release every game for virtual console too, so there's probably a lot of games you like that you'd miss out on.It's up to you, but in my opinion, it'd still be really nice to own an N64.

Yes, any sort of remote that works on the Wii works on the Wii U (except for gamecube controllers...for now)

No it is not. The Wii U does not have ports for the GameCube controllers unfortunately. There are adapters that allow the Wii Remote on the Wii U to treat the GameCube controller as a Classic controller. It's a nice option. Be warned though that the triggers are not analog through the adapter and all the buttons become digital because of the adapter.

This controller is for the Wii U only and will not work when playing Wii games on the Wii U.

Honestly dont buy this third party controller, my wiiU doesn't recognize it at all

This controller is compatible when using the Nintendo GameCube controller Adapter for Wii U. Note that at this time, the adapter only works with Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and is not recognized by the Wii U menu or any other Wii/Wii U games.

Yes, using the 'moga universal controller' app, it will work with most emulators.

Perhaps. There are GameCube controller adapters such as Mayflash Nintendo GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U that supposedly will allow you to play on the Wii U. I haven't tried one.The Wii U does not have GameCube ports, and games released on the Wii U aren't made with the GameCube control scheme in mind.

I am pretty sure u can I owned a Wii and currently xbox360 and they both worked great with this converter just takes a hdmi input and converts it into vga and stereo sound outputs.

It's not really worth it for the authentic feel. I would recommend a N64 usbadapter instead and no, it's not compatible with Wii-U or any console for that! Hope I could help out! :)

Sadly, no, the Wii U Pro Controller is currently not compatible with any original Wii software. An update which could patch in functionality is possible, but not likely. Your best option is the Classic Controller Pro originally designed for the Wii, which also works with the Wii U.

I don't think so.... It was made for wii u pro controler. I think, for ps3/ps4 controller u need to play with a usb cable.

I think it's important to remember that the Wii U is not designed to read any GameCube Controller you plug into this adapter (dance mat or otherwise) as an actual GameCube Controller. Instead, this adapter makes the Wii U read GameCube Controllers as if they were Wii Classic Controllers. As far as I know, that's its only function. So if your dance mat has a GameCube plug, AND if the game itself USES the Wii Classic Controller as a control scheme (meaning the game allows you to play songs or do dances with the Classic Controller alone), then it's possible it could work. But I'm not familiar with any game that has that function.
