So as the first person in the fast outspace of the world to write this (because I’ve checked), I want some help in detecting if I am smoking something, or if this is a real problem.

I went to play Mario Superstar Baseball the other day in my Nintendo Wii. I’ve played a couple of games with the Wii’s GameCube compatibility before without issues, I thought this would go just as well. I was wrong.

The game loaded okay, and asked if I wanted to use Progressive Mode (480P). When I went to say YES with the Wavebird controller, no feedback. The Wavebird receiver was chirping, so I knew the signal made it to there, but no response from the game at all. It continued to load, and the intro played great. But no matter what I did, no controller input was accepted.

I tried a second Wavebird, thinking it was the controller, didn’t help. I even went to a wired controller, which did not work either! So now, extremely worried, I put in Mario Power Tennis, which I had played the day before … it worked fine. Not a problem at all.

So I am wondering, is this a problem for anyone else or am I losing my mind? Help me figure this out! PLEASE!
