GameCube controller

Hi everyone,
I read that a Gamecube controller is needed for applications that prevent bricking or unbrick consoles.
Can you tell me if an original gamecube controller is required, or if an unofficial controller can work.
Thanks

it also works with a non-original one.
however be careful, to use starfall you absolutely must have firmware 3.2

it's weird because when I installed starfall, I just put the .dol on my sd, launched it and I got to the selection screen (options to remove and add)
I removed the saftymode and no more updates all that with my wiimote!

the gamecube controller is only useful when your wii is actually bricked.
during setup it's not used.

when I launch strafall myself, it asks me to press B+2:

like in the tuto "Protect your Wii from brick risks with Starfall!"
@ Chokkola: did you put starfall's .dol in your apps folder?

Sorry: it's fine without the GC controller, you just had to keep trying a bit!

yes!

but the only thing is I just downgraded and installed the loader on a buddy's wii but when I wanted to put starfall on, forget it!

no way it accepts my B+2 I tried other combinations but nothing happens!

5 minutes trying! result it didn't install it! X) :lol:

B+1 actually after 5 - 6 tries OK (on a 3.2 E)
