Remember that guide we published a while ago, where we were teaching you how to play Wii and GameCube games onto your PC using a nifty little application called Dolphin? Well, I'm pretty sure those of you who do remember (and especially those of you who actually followed the steps of the guide and managed to get games working) wished they also had available some sort of device that would allow them to play the respective games using the Wii's own controller.
