Description
Is there a chance for add Wii U GamePad support to the official Nintendo Wii builds of RetroArch Wii in all existing cores?
Specially since i'm very interested in making RetroArch Wii autoboot games with "standalone" versions of these cores via arguments, and i got to boot them from the Wii U Menu, but i think that thing that makes an incomplete "WiiVC inject" of RetroArch Wii on the Wii U, is the lack of the GamePad support, forcing to use the Wiimote and its controllers/accessories.
Yeah I know there's the official Wii U version but it lacks of support for autolaunch games via arguments.
Any chance for add Wii U GamePad support to RetroArch Wii, using this library by FIX94?: https://github.com/FIX94/libwiidrc
Thanks ;)
