Gamecube controllers glitch on Wii?
ok so I have a wii and got DDR the hottest party (wii game) to play... since my neighbors also have ddr (on xbox) and he has a mat that can connect to both his xbox, gamecube, and playstation... I brought over his mat one day and plugged it in my wii to play ddr... and once get far enough in the game to select characters... the corresponding pointer on the tv to the gamecube mat acts like the down arrow is being held down... I tried everything to get it to stop including making sure nothing was on it and it was on a flat surface... I end up using the wii remote to choose the character and song that I want before I plug the mat back into the wii.... which actually takes all of the buttons that I press: like it isn't glitching anymore. This just gets annoying b/c I have to change them quickly after I picked the song and before the arrows start popping up... so I thought it was just the mat since my neighbors DO tend to break things occasionally.. BUT... my sister got a used gamecube game (harvest moon: another wonderful life) and had to buy a gamecube memory stick and controller to play (which I think is COMPLETELY absurd)... so I decided to use the wireless gamecube controller that we just bought to play ddr (yeah I cheat by using the buttons; and yes I also use the classic controller so it works... ) so anyway, the gamecube controller is doing the same thing that the gamecube ddr mat is doing... I mean it works, but I hate running up to the tv to plug in the controller after every song... (since it changes the difficulty level repeatedly when I leave it in)... so does someone have any idea about what is wrong with these gamecube controllers / my wii / my ddr game... I guess it could be the controller (but 2 seems suspicious) since my sister also complained that when she leaves the girl on harvest moon alone she slowly walks to the right (not down like on ddr) when no buttons are being pressed and I guess it could be the ddr game itself b/c it has glitched before just when entering the game (when I go into the challenge mode thing the screen sometimes can't decide where it's going so I have to restart the game, then it's fine) and I guess it could be the wii too: like it's not recognizing gamecube controllers to it's best ability when playing wii games... and YES I made sure there was no dust or residue on the wii or controllers where I was plugging them in PLEASE help me out or make suggestions THANK YOU SO SO MUCH! I HAVE a wii you IDIOT... seriously can people READ??? I HAVE a wii you IDIOT... seriously can people READ???

- I have used a gamecube controller CONSTANTLY with my nintendo wii. I've never had a problem with it. It might be that the controller ports are messing up, so it might just be your wii.
- clean your gamecube controller metal piece on en and gamecube ports
- Make sure the control stick is in the neutral position when you plug it in.
