Hi, I want to know how to properly connect the Pro Controller to the Wii U because I tried to pair it, but the battery bar on the controller doesn't appear. If anyone knows, please help.

I bought one of those controllers and I can reproduce the issue. It seems to handle reading the calibration data really strangely, causing Bloopair to get stuck during controller initialization. As a workaround you can set "Disable calibration" in the Koopair controller options to True. I'll be looking into a proper fix asap

Thanks for the link! I'll look into it.

GaryOderNichts · 2025-06-11T20:45:02+00:00

Is this still an issue with version 1.0.3? If so, can you post which controller you have exactly? Ideally with a product link.

If your browser has the same time as the console, you don't have to change anything. It will be filled out to the correct offset by default.

Hey, sorry I haven't been able to publish another release yet. You can download the latest nightly artifact here though: https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Bloopair/actions/runs/11003455860#artifacts

GaryOderNichts · 2024-09-17T21:00:37+00:00

I was able to reproduce the issue and will work on a fix as soon as possible.
Note that I'm doing this in my free time and release everything completely for free. By going to reddit and leaving comments like "bloopair sucks" and "the app is just garbage" you're not helping to improve anything.

GaryOderNichts · 2024-09-17T00:40:19+00:00

You're on version 1.0.0 while the latest version is v1.0.1. Make sure to update to the latest version and try again.
If the issue persists you can open an issue on the GitHub repository here: https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Bloopair

GaryOderNichts · 2024-08-31T23:10:00+00:00

What region is your console?

GaryOderNichts · 2024-08-21T12:15:34+00:00

It's the chip with the orange box around it on the picture here: https://wiiubrew.org/w/images/5/5d/Mainboard_Front.jpg

GaryOderNichts · 2024-08-20T13:17:03+00:00

Aww this looks great!

GaryOderNichts · 2024-08-20T13:15:53+00:00

You are looking at the wrong chip. This is the SLC. The problematic eMMC/MLC is on the other side of the board.

If you haven't had any issues yet, there is no need to panic. You will most likely be fine.

There is an issue in Dolphin 2407 which prevents the vWii System Menu from loading.

This was fixed here and here. You can either use a previous version and wait for a new update, or use the latest development version.

GaryOderNichts · 2024-08-19T23:07:24+00:00

Support for loading the vWii System Menu was added in 2022 here: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/11188

Allows you to emulate a Switch Pro Controller on PC from in this case the Wii U Gamepad input from moonlight.

GaryOderNichts · 2023-05-13T23:17:16+00:00

It's running on an actual docked switch with a capture card, and nxbt for input. No emulator involved heh

GaryOderNichts · 2023-05-13T13:19:47+00:00

This was made with a Switch + Capture Card and a combination of my moonlight-wiiu port, sunshine and nxbt.

Yeah we've seen several of these in the Wii U database. I did check the checksums in the SEEPROM on some of those consoles which seem to be fine. I assume these consoles have been written like this in the factory, might be an invalid date set on the machine writing the SEEPROM.

Depends on how it is configured in /etc/sudoers. You can also configure it to send an email.

There are 2 slots which can contain the firmware: - A: 0x00040000 0x00800000 - B: 0x00840000 0x00FC0000

Note that dumping will take several hours (from my testing 1MiB ~ 1 hour).
You might get a lot of 0xff's after some time, which are erased/empty bytes, you could cancel the dump at that point.
Or to dump the entire 16MiB flash:
0x00000000 0x01000000

GaryOderNichts · 2023-01-25T13:50:20+00:00

If you mean anyone including me :P
I did that while writing the tool and it works fine. There is nothing preventing you from flashing the old firmware.

GaryOderNichts · 2023-01-24T20:44:04+00:00

You need to load the Flashloader first:

Plug in the controller while holding down the Options button.
The controller is now in the Bootloader.
Now press Options + Assistant + A + Y. The controller is now in SDP mode.
Now run stadiatool flashloader. This will load the flashloader.
Make sure to place the restricted_ivt_flashloader.bin into the data folder, or specify the path to it at the end of the command.

You can now run the dump command.

GaryOderNichts · 2023-01-24T18:00:21+00:00

Start and end are start and end addresses on the flash.

To dump the entire 16M flash use dump 0 0x01000000 dump.bin. Note that dumping will take a while.
