Setup of Nintendo GameCube Controllers
NOTE: When using GameCube Controllers with the Wii console, be sure and
use the stand plate to help prevent the console from being tipped over by
pulling on the controller cable. (See page 11, Vertical Placement.)
Optionally, the console can be placed horizontally. When using GameCube
Controllers in the horizontal position, the controller socket cover can be
removed to allow the console to lay flat. See page 29 for instructions on
removing the cover.
Connecting GameCube Controllers
NOTE: GameCube controllers only work when playing GameCube games on the Wii
console.
• Plug the controllers into the GameCube Controller sockets on the side of the
console.
• Review the instruction booklet for the game you are playing for the number and
position of controllers required for that specific game.
Removing the Controller Socket Cover
If you are using the Wii console in a horizontal position, you must remove
the controller socket cover when using GameCube Controllers to allow the
console to lay completely flat.
1. Stand the Wii console upright as shown and squeeze gently until you feel a
slight click.
2. Remove the cover by pulling straight up out of the console.
3. The cover can be replaced by reinserting the cover straight down into the console
until it clicks into place.
NOTE: The GameCube Memory Slot Cover can be removed with the same
procedure, and should be removed if you are using GameCube Memory
Cards when the Wii console is placed horizontally.
Use the Wii stand plate when using
GameCube Controllers to prevent
the console from tipping over.
