1. Also, motion controls on the nunchuck CAN be enabled, but you have to right click on the motion sensor buttons, which will open a window that allows you to select any input from any device. From there, you have to select the specific Joy Con (L) device and map the correct sensors.

   Dolphin button mapping is VERY powerful IF you know how to set it up properly

2. someone know hot to connect whit macos Sonoma the wii controller, the original and old? help me please

3. how do you get dolphin to recognise the inputs without betterjoy? is it an adapter thing? im using windows with what i imagen is an old adapter so is that it?

4. Waiting for my rom to download, hope this one works! It's been ages since I played RE UC and I'v been dying to try this out. Fingers crossed!!

5. Hi, on Dolphin I succeeded, but on Ryujinx (also on the Mac) has anyone managed to activate the "movement" with the Joy-Con?

6. do you need to get the development modes?

7. 4:09 Just connected my Joy cons and when I go to Dolphin Emulator controller settings the motion input page is blank and it doesn't detect any movement. Is this due to MacOS Sonoma?

8. Thx you man, you turned my life around. Can I ask you a question? the joycons that you know, can I also use them with other emulators? like Citra-qt, Openemu, Nestopia etc. etc.?

9. Cool, thanks I just got a DualSense it's nice so far. I'm loving it. It's the first time I've had a Playstation controller.

   God bless.

10. Anyone seeing a shimmering/blurring effect happening in some games in dolphin? New Super Mario Bros and Donkey Kong Country Returns on Wii have this happening when you are running and the screen is scrolling from side to side. Also seeing this on Mario Kart Double Dash for GC. I’m currently on an M1 MacBook. Any help or tips about fixing this would be appreciated. 🙏🏻

11. Question , can I connect my Wii remote on MacBook m1 ship

12. Current nintendo emulators (at least Wii/Wii u and switch) run 50% natively in M chips due the instructions are the same than those consoles (ARM). In case of switch, latest emulators are being optimized due in the background they share the same Operating System (FreeBSD)

13. hi, this is a great video! but i have one problem with the joycon motion. it keeps glitching out. is there a fix to this?

14. Thanks you 🙂 how to fix conflicts with home button ?

15. I just need to ask, how hot does the air get?

16. the motion controls aren't working for me for some reason. How do you set them up?

17. For some reason double click is not working for me 😢😢

18. I copied all the same controlls but didn't work for me yet in config all the keys worked

19. Any way to connect the wii remote (both standard/moment plus) with a M2? (ventura). I already found the bluetooth address of the device but can't generate a correct pin code

20. I got this to work but when I’m trying it again the motion controls are not responding I can still use the controller just can’t fix the motion any tips ?

21. I've had an issue where when I try to connect my Wii remote to bluetooth and when I do it tells me to enter a 4-digit code and i cant connect my wii remote to dolphin emulator. I am using a macOS Ventura and would appreciate some help

22. Thanks a lot!!

23. You literally saved me after hours and hours of searching!! can't believe your video wasn't recommended till now! really can't thank you enough I almost gave up

24. You are the master of M1 emulator installation etc. Extremely helpful tutorials. Thank You!

25. this doesn't work with gamecube roms? i download the dolphin?

26. I need help. I can't use any controllers. Nothing is working.

27. Any updates?

28. Hey @Andrew Tsai can pairing my ps5 controller to play emulation games cause problems when i connect it back to the ps5 ?

29. doesn't work

30. Can you do a tutorial in how to pair original wiimotes to dolphin for macOS ventura without the need of a bluetooth adapter???

31. i dont know why but the gyro doesn’t work but everything else was super easy and works amazing

32. Thanks a lot for this man!

33. The accelerometer and gyroscope isn’t accepting any input but everything else works fine. any way to fix this?

34. Best Tutorial on Youtube💯💯💯

35. is this work on MacBook Pro 2014 ?

36. do we have to buy 2 pairs of joycon in order to multiplayer?or is 1 pair enough?

37. I don’t have a m1 MacBook Pro it keeps saying failed to initialize video backend and how did you get motion controls on the joycon?

38. Is there a way to add mods on the dolphin emulators?

39. hello is the mac hot when emulating its games? thanks

40. @ Andrew Tsai Why is it telling me failed to find a memory base when I click on my game in Dolphin???? Someone please help!

41. is there an update to the 2nd joycon not being able to use gyrocontrols?

42. Eh? Dolphin is so light it runs on basically anything from 2010 onwards. A 200 dollar laptop will let you upscale 4k quite easily. Macs will simply run Dolphin and pair joycons just like anything else, just at 15 times the price. Jesus, people will make a video about anything I guess, just need that bait headline.

43. Can you compare Dolphin vs Eyujinx, there is no single video that compares these two on mac 😁

44. Man he trippin on my msi that plays at passed 60 fps

45. Can I upload my saves from wii to mac?

46. Awesome video ty

47. Can I use a ps4 controller instead?

48. Can't get official wiimote to connect to M1 Mac Mini anymore. Running latest OS. Help please?

49. Pro tip: Map a button to "Recenter" under the "Point" section. That's absolutely necessary as the gyro will slowly drift as you play a game

50. can you use a ps4 controller for this?
