I don’t have a wii yet, but I had my controllers “freak out” on my gamecube before, and all you need to do is unplug it, and plug it back in…I’m sure theres no real problem other then what I have just said. I think it may have something to do with pluging in a controller while the machine is already in use…Never happend to me when I pluged it in, and turned it on, just when it was already on…Anyone else share this minor problem?

the controller was freaking out because he was moving the joystick and pushing the buttons before the game turned on. It does that if you don’t leave the controller alone. I think you can fix it by pushing all the buttons on the controls.

Whenever you plug in a GC controller, the system takes whatever position the joystick is in as the neutral position. So if you happened to have the joystick pushed up (ie upside down on the ground), the system takes that as neutral, so when it returns to true neutral (ie you pick up the controller) the system now thinks that you are pushing the control stick in a direction. It was the same with the N64 controllers.

Yeah, thats what was going on for sure with mine…I never thought about that part before, but it makes sense for sure.

being a bit rough is’nt he. jesus

Lol the guy is probly holding the camera in one hand and plugging stuff in with the other so yeah he was hodling on the analog stick while he plugged it in so it freaked out. Does the same on almost any system. (even PC)

Yea I had the same problem on my GC. Don’t plan on playing GC games on my Wii though.

I don’t see any problems with the Wii yet, besides the controller thing, but as most of you I’ve had that problem plenty of times.
The dude’s Wavebird made me think, the new GC superpad controller (being made alongside of the Wii) isn’t wireless is it? That would suck if it wasn’t.

The wii is going to be great either way.

What TCV Said is true and if it happens to you yhou can fix it by holding down the X Y and Start button all at the same time for 3 to 5 seconds

That really annoyed me, he’s honestly never experienced that before! Any way, good to see that the games work, looks like it won’t be like on 360. I’d like to see it with the classic controller.

DOES THIS WANKER HAVE PARKINSONS DESESE ROUGH HANDED BLANK OF WOOD THE CUBE PADS SET TO DATUM ZERO WHEN YOU SWITCH ON A CUBE THIS GUY KNOWS FUK ALL ALLSO YOU DO NOT EVER PLUG IN AND REMOVE MEMORY CARDS WILST CONSOLE IS SWITCHED ON JESUS CHRIST HE MADE wii look broken the fooooooooooollll

Heh, that guy is an idiot. “Ah stop freaking out!”. Yeah, just re plug in your controler.

God that guy was a idiot…little rough too…wtf…
Wait…..how the hell did he get a Wii?

to cubeboy101
Yes you can…and in fact its easier to do that hen turn it off insert memory card….ect…

lol this guy is so dumb. Mario strikers looks the same as it does on gamecube because ITS A GAMECUBE GAME. and wow lol my controller is freaking out and i dont know why. how about u learn how to plung in a controller first then try pluging it in befoe the system tunrs on

did you see that? It ATE the CD! that is so AWSOME. i’ll probably be amused for hours just inserting and ejecting CD’s!

wow noob your supposed to turn it off so that it regs wow seriously like where did he get a wii i think u’d realize your supposed to turn it off when your plugging in stuff and when your putting in a mem card your suppsoed to turn it of wow he has a GC but doesnt’ know… fricken noobs wow lick mah bawlz plz also if you have a gc your controller would “freak out” on you and u’d take it out and put it back in but obviously sherlock over here can’t seem to get it right but he can work a camera frick i could make a better review with mah bawlz stapled to a table

your suppossed to press x+y+Start DEE DEE DEE hoe long have you had that gamecube

Why are all the people that play the wii before it comes out are complete noobs when it come to gamming?

I’ll never go to destuctiod again… Oyeah I hope nintendo breaks into his house and steals his wii…LOL

hell, I’LL break into his house to steal it!
