All these kids talking about one mistake he makes in the video... just appreciate that a person dedicates his time to help people out

The GameCube is backwards compatible with GameCube games??? I love these mistakes

There are 6 versions of the Wii. 1. White: Gamecube compatible 2. Original Black: GC compatible 3. New Black: Not compatible No ports on top for controllers or memory. 4. Red: GC compatible. 5. Blue: Not compatible. No ports on top for controllers or memory. 6. Wii Mini: Not compatible. Another thing not mentioned. There are 3 connection options. Composite, component and HDMI with an adapter.

You are right my friend. The Wii can play GC games because the Wii is actually an enhanced GameCube with better processor and motion controllers. Therefore there is no emulation.

Step 1: Put gamecube game in Wii. Step 2: Plug in controller and memory card. Step 3: Done Also, the wii one of the best selling video game consoles and it was very successful.

You should mention that GameCube games play in the far superior component video out when you're using the relatively-affordable Wii Component Cable! The GameCube component cable to accomplish the same thing on an actual GameCube costs hundreds of dollars!

Region locking: *exists* Priiloader: "Allow us to introduce ourselves"

Really surprised that there was no mention of component cables in the video. Anyone using composite cables is REALLY missing out

With nintendont, any wii can play gamecube games, even the most recent ones. You can even olay it without the GameCube controller, only with wii remote+nunchunk

Well done! Thanks for the video. This is something Nintendo should have advertised more and it is something I have been doing for years. Also, a big plus for us US Wii owners is that the Wii component cables are MUCH less expensive than the Gamecube component cables. In some cases you can buy a whole first generation Wii system to play both Wii and Gamecube games for the price of the Gamecube component cables alone! This means, via the component cable people can finally play Gamecube (and Wii) games in beautiful and clear 480p and this looks fantastic on modern HDTVs! Again thank you and keep up the great work.

I like the GameCube better than Wii’s backwards compatibility, because you have to use motion controls every time you want to start a game. You have to get out the wiimote and the GameCube controller. You also have to make sure the wiimote has batteries. Another thing is that the picture of the game isn’t shown on the menu (if you forgot which game you had in the Wii). It just says Nintendo GameCube instead, without the amazing startup animation.

you just need: -a Gamecube game (obviously) -an original gamecube controller -A memory card of Gamecube and ready, time to play

Thank you so much I bought a controller today and thought it didn’t work was bummed out until I saw your video! Thanks for saving me a trip back to the store

0:30 there's one cool feature that i don't think is talked about enough, and that's the fact that the gamecube is completely backwards compatible with gamecube games

component cable is needed

you can also use the gamecube microphone (memory card slot) and donkey kong bongos (controller slot) on the wii too for the cube games :) plus you can use the cube controllers for a bunch of wii games (smash, mario kart, dbz budokai 3, goldeneye, conduit, klonoa, ...)

I actually had quit a lot of fun with the wii back in the day with the no more heroes games, Mario Galaxy games, Wario Land, Deadly Creatures, and Pandoras Tower being a few games that stand out in my memory although i'm only just starting to seriously collect for the wii and game cube.

Thanks for the info mate, exactly what I wanted to know!

I have an aftermarket intek GameCube memory card that is over 10 years maybe a bit less but it is old. Still works perfectly and has never corrupted anything

I like the disco background music. Groovy!

hooo boy the Wii is better for so much more than Wii Sports and Fit. Mario Kart, Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, Smash Bros, Virtual Console, there are so many good games

Dude thank you so much I was struggling trying to figure it out

Thanks man for the info just started playing GameCube games on Wii

I had no idea of this until now! I was devastated I couldn't play Windwaker with the platforms I have but then this information comes around!!

I have GameCube games like chicken little, marvel nemesis, and crash tag team racing worked for the Wii

I just bought metroid prime luigis mansion and a gamecube controller, my life is already complete.

I can't believe I found this clip really useful. A godsent no doubt. I just wanna know every feature on my ver 1.0 Wii, for example: How to return from the gamecube game to the Wii homeMenu without having to reset or turning off the console..

Wiiconnect24 will murder your memory cards, turn that crap off since it's killed 2 of mine that i've had since 2003

I used to play Gamecube games on the Wii before, so that I never get scared of the logo all the time.

I Have a GC compadible Wii and thanks for the help! Now i can play Rayman 3 again!

I got two Star Wars games on the GameCube for Christmas, Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2 and LEGO Star Wars 2 as well as a GameCube controller and I'm gonna play them on my Wii. But I couldn't find one of the cables for the Wii so my dad ordered one on Amazon so i'll be a few days late to play my games. And earlier I realized that in order to play the GameCube games on the Wii, I need a GameCube memory card. I told my dad and he said he ordered it.

I think now you can use the memory card on soft modded Wii to store GC save files there... I even saw a tutorial on where to turn that option on. I think you just need a bigger memory card for it to work, but apparently it works.

Thank you so much! Now can i play wind waker on my Wii

Thanks for this. I was wondering, if you could explain some of the oddities around the 4:3 and 16:9 choice in the settings menu? And if I should pick up a converter?

Umm is there a way to fix the issue of the PSM (Proggresive Scan Mode)? Like, for example what if activating this make yout TV goes crazy and glitchy in the video? Because I was putting one of my games on a friend's Wii console, and it appeared the option *Proggresive Scan Mode* and by accident I've pressed yes, and now the video (the image) went crazy and all glitchy/static. Any tips on how to fix that?

That background music is FUNKY

I have the rvl 101 black wii and it doesn't have the gamecube ports, but it does have a white port under where the gamecube memory card would be inserted. What is the white port for?

Hi! I have a question for you, since you seem very prepared on this topic: I have a Wii retrocompatible but I don't have any original Game Cube controller, besides I have one of those Game Cube-style controller that Nintendo released years ago to play Smash Bros U and MK8 by simply plugging them in the original Wii-mote. I've already checked and the Wii does recognize this controller and lets me navigate through the Wii dashboard but I don't know if it will work with the game that I've bought online (Super Mario Sunshine). Do you have any idea about that? Do I need to order a Game Cube controller clone in order to be ready to play as soon as I receive Sunshine? Thanks for your help!

Do you HAVE to have a memory card for the GameCube game to work on the wii even if you have a new game you just got

The gamcube can play GameCube games?!?! Revelutionary...

Here is another way to check if your Wii is compatible with GameCube try to open the top there should be 4 ports and 2 memory card ports if not then that sucks. Also look in the manual because the Wii manual refers to the GameCube comparability so

I heard a rumor that the 1019 official gc memory card gets corrupted easily if used on the Wii?

I really wanna hit myself for passing on Destroy All Monsters Melee and I now realize it can still play on my old Wii

How do you get to the memory card so I can erase stuff and copy stuff on the Wii?

Does the Mario Dance Dance Revolution Pad work on the Wii?

So that means you have to carry around the sensor bar and wiimote right,

RVL-001 came in white, black, and limited edition red. RVL-101 came in white (jpn), black, and blue. look at the front of your wii if the wii symbol is shown correctly standing up by the eject button then thats the RVL-001. if the the wii symbol on the front is shown correct while laying down beneath the SD card slot then that the RVL-101 model.

Dude, the wii was used so much when I first got it! Don't say that it was tossed in the corner so fast. It had plenty of good games to play on it.

the whole reason i bought my wii in 2009 was to play gamecube on it since my original gamecube loves freezing on game swell certain ones like super monkey ball 2 and had issue with reading disks. I finally cleaned my gamecube after so many yrs of in storage and it works perfectly but still freezes on sm2

Only one of my controller outputs works. Am I doing something wrong or is there something wrong with my Wii?

A warning to owners of both a GameCube and a Wii: switching memory cards from one system to the other can corrupt them, even official Nintendo memory cards. This happened to my brother recently. He lost his Windwaker save. I recommend having a separate memory card s for both systems

My black wii is the RVL-001 model it has GameCube controller and GameCube memory card port it should be able to play GameCube games but when I put them in the wii doesn't read the disc and the disc gets stuck what do I do?

i also modded my wii to support usb pc controller works perfectly fine

I have a white Wii and I tried playing sonic heroes because that was basically my childhood, but I put the disc in and it just got stuck somewhere inside the Wii. I had to take it out with a screwdriver with tape on the tip of it. Someone help please

I have a black Wii but it can play game cube games and it has the 001 thing and the Wii text can be read while it is standing up

The simplest way to know if your wii has backward compatibility : if the logo is oriented so that the console is vertical

can i use a power A game cube controller for the wii?

so, I checked and my wii is able to play GameCube games. All these years, I could’ve been playing all these GameCube games I wanted to play... lol

you can play gamecube games on any wii you need a sd or usb, homebrew, nintendont, usbloadergx or wiiflow, gamecube usb adapter

Do you ned the old controllers or can you USE the re-realesed controllers??

If I remember correctly, the GameCube freeloader disc doesn't work on the Wii if you want to play imports. I remember a patch coming out some time after launch that made the disc unusable. It's definitely a must GameCube accessory for playing outside your region unless your console is modded.

I cannot get my wavebird controllers to work on my wii. They work fine on my gamecube. The button on the receiver lights up when I press a button, not nothing happens. They work fine on the GC, move it over and they don't work. Playing Mario Sunshine.

Which size of memory card should I use? Thank you!

I can't play GameCube games with my Wii even though wehn i when i look under options it says GameCube data and or Wii data i'm so confused. Does every Wii do that ??

Can you play any GameCube games if you don’t have a memory card

Hey bro I was wondering if u would play cel damage for GameCube that was such a fun game when I was younger great memories

I wanted to ask a question, my Wii is apparently 001 and the GameCube CD appears on the screen when I access the game channel but the logo is horizontal and the color is black

I've had my Wii for years and I just realized I can play GameCube on it! I hope it works though cause I don't want buying games and controllers to be a waste of money.

It's weird The Game Boy Player isn't able to work on the Wii but the start up disc will work(Kind of)

I’m trying to decide if I shd replace my GameCube with another GameCube or a wii? I have all the GameCube aaa games and Accessories.

I put after market gamecube controller and it got stuck in my wii GC controller port broke controller getting it out, The after market controller cord sucked as it was too short I am now going to buy extension cord so if it gets stuck again I will lose $5.50 rather than $15.00 :( This is the first time any console I ever owned needed pliers to put out controller from socket :( I wonder if you have any idea about running extension cord then a converter cord to convert ps2 controller to GC controller? So Pro tip if you buy after market controller your going to need extension cord and try that first in case you did like I did and broke controller instead of getting out pliers first time.

Im having trouble with my Wii. It’s a RVL-001 so it plays GameCube. I just got sonic heroes and I was very excited and I played the first level of the game it worked fine. Then all of a sudden it pops up black screen saying error. It just happens randomly in every level and boss, it’s nearly impossible to get through one level without that stopping me. I’ve tried restarting, cleaning the Wii and disc, and putting a cd with a brush in the console to clean the inside, what should I do? Can anyone help?

Love how he dissed the wii at the start

can someone please give me a link to where I can buy a good GameCube memory card and controller.

0:52 there is one cool thing about he GameCube it’s backwards compatible with the GameCube

Can you save your progress in the wii when your in the gamecube mode

the newer black wii still can play using a emulator called nintendont. additionally this emulator also allows you to play without a memory card so if you can’t get one then there’s your solution.

Can you do a LAN connection with say Mario Kart Double Dash with a Wii to a GC with the broadband adapter?

Is an memory card Needed when u wanna play gc games on ur wii?

How do i get out of gamecube mode? Serious question

I bought a Gamecube because it was actually the cheepest way to get a Gamecube controller from the store that I bought it from because the Gamecube controller was the same price as a Gamecube with a controller. ($20). lol I'm not sure if they were aware of that. But I primarily use the Wii to play GC games because the Wii component cables are cheeper and make the games look great on an HD TV. Component cables for the GC are insanely expensive and the standard composite cables make the games look blurry.

Does the smash bros game Cube controller work??

"There is one cool feature of the gamecube, and that is that it's fully gamecube compatible." WUT??!!

Hey, after playing a gamecube game on the wii, how do you exit the GameCube and get back to the wii menu?

Frick I have RVL-101. Glad I watched this before buying gamecube games

Do the nintendo switch gamecube controllers work on this?

I have the same memory card in this video and its corrupted, and I just opened it. Ig I need a new one.

Oh nan love THIS video so awsome

I should have done more research before buying Mario Kart Double Dash, turns out I have a WII that isn't compatible with GameCube games. In a way I feel gyped, but I guess that's my fault for not looking more into it. Thanks for the video. Confused why Nintendo decided to still show a GameCube disc on the disc channel though.
