Wii U Playing Gamecube Games

GameCube Controller ports on the top of the Wii unit

This is a list of released and upcoming video games for the Wiivideo game console which allow use of the GameCube Controller. This list does not include games released on Nintendo's Virtual Console as the GameCube controller can also be used for all Virtual Console games, with the exception of some TurboGrafx-16 games.[citation needed] Many of the games on this list are ports of prior generation games or games that were simultaneously released on the PlayStation 2.

May 03, 2009  How to Play Gamecube Games on Wii - Steps Open the cover on top of the Wii. Connect a GameCube controller. Open the cover on the top of the Wii. Insert a memory card. Insert a GameCube disc into the slot. Press the 'Home' button. Click on GameCube. Play the game. Nov 05, 2014  Nintendont is a homebrew application for the Wii (and thusly, the Wii U via Wii mode) that takes advantage of the fact that the Wii U is backwards compatible with the Wii.which means it's also fully backwards compatible with the GameCube. Yes, that's right - the Wii U can play GameCube games. Aug 31, 2016  If you’re a Wii U owner, then the reasons for installing Nintendont are self-explanatory. Your console can natively play GameCube games with this software installed, which adds another 600 titles to the console’s repertoire. Let’s be honest — the Wii U can use all the additional games it can get.
