Is it possible to connect a microcontroller or external device to the port that is under the wii. I want to make an homebrew application that will drive the external device that I will make. What are the protocols? What are the pinouts? Thanks for your anwser in advance.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68253#msg-68253Thu, 18 Jun 2026 10:15:32 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68365#msg-68365 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68365#msg-68365devkitpro.svn.sourceforge.net]

For examples of how to use them, try the source code from libogc's usbmouse and usbkeyboard files:

I found on the TeensyUsb site that you can send custom ios from/to usb with rawhid functions.

And that's the kind of function that I want to call from the wii program.

Where can I download libusb ported for the wii?]]> holy_artefact HardwareMon, 31 Oct 2011 03:20:48 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68314#msg-68314 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68314#msg-68314 tueidj HardwareMon, 24 Oct 2011 17:55:32 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68312#msg-68312 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68312#msg-68312What I want is simply translate wiimote button presses into NES/SNES/N64 simulated controller button press.
So from my perspective, I want to play real NES games with my wiimote/gamecube controller.
I think I will go with Wiimote -> Wii (homebrew program) -> USB (libusb) -> Custom microcontroller -> NES control port -> NES.
The Gamecube memory card option is not good for me because I don't want to remove my memory cards when I play other consoles.

I am not familiar with the protocol of USB. Do you think I can send custom I/Os with the current version of libusb with the Wii?]]> holy_artefact HardwareMon, 24 Oct 2011 15:34:26 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68267#msg-68267 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68267#msg-68267 tueidj HardwareSat, 22 Oct 2011 10:17:49 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68266#msg-68266 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68266#msg-68266
Anyway I will change my question.
How to communicate with external devices.
Maybe I'll have to resign to use the USB connectors and make an homebrew application that use it.]]> holy_artefact HardwareSat, 22 Oct 2011 06:22:04 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68264#msg-68264 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68264#msg-68264 tueidj HardwareSat, 22 Oct 2011 04:50:26 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68253#msg-68253 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?7,68253,68253#msg-68253I want to make an homebrew application that will drive the external device that I will make.
