Description

This is the original V1 Adapter - the first-generation Wii VC adapter. It lets you play Wii Virtual Console rereleases of Nintendo 64 titles with a Nintendo 64 controller, with accurate analogue stick correction for every Wii VC release.

It is built around a CPLD rather than a microcontroller, and cannot update its firmware or connect to EMSpy. It has been superseded by the newer EM Adapters (V2.x.x firmware). This page is kept for reference and existing owners.

For the full technical write-up (including the Wii VC stick-mapping deep dive), see the V1 details page.

Features

• Easy to use - just select the correct mapping for your game and play
• Reverses the Wii VC stick mapping for every possible N64 value, so supported games feel exactly like the original
• Virtually no input lag (~0.2ms) thanks to the CPLD design
• Compatible with the N64 Rumble Pak
• Additional mapping for the GameCube rereleases of the Legend of Zelda (Ocarina of Time / Master Quest and Collector's Edition)
• Additional generic mapping for non-VC games
• Uses a CPLD for very high reliability
• Built-in input display feature (requires a separate USB to RS232 adapter)
