Changelog

v2.2 2024/08/12

• Added:
  • Added the requirement to press + before continuing to the main app.
• Fixed:
  • Fixed a bug with the displaying of the button tests
  • Fixed a bug that caused the A and B buttons to be reversed when using a WiiU Pro Controller.
  • Fixed a bug that caused ZL, ZR, and B to toggle into advanced mode instead of ZL, ZR, and A when using a WiiU Pro Controller.
  • Fixed a rare crash that was caused when using both GamePad and WiiU Pro Controller at the same time.
• Removed:
  • Removed support for the Wii Controller, Wii Classic Controller, Wii Pro Controller, and Wii Nunchuk as this app is only for WiiU and doesn't need any Wii features.

v2.1 2024/08/02

• Added:
  • WiiU Pro Controller Support.
  • Advanced mode for seeing X/Y values of the joysticks (only compatible with WiiU Pro Controller and WiiU Gamepad at the moment).
• Next Steps:
  • The first and really only next step is to add gyroscope readouts for the WiiU Pro Controller and WiiU Gamepad to advanced mode. This will further help test controllers and their input.
• Other Notes:
  • Advanced mode can be accessed by pressing the ZL, ZR and A buttons on either the WiiU Gamepad or WiiU Pro Controller.
  • Basic mode can be accessed by pressing the PLUS button from the advanced mode screen.

v2.0 2024/07/29

• Added:
  • Added support for the Wii controller.
  • Added support for the Wii Nunchuk attachment.
  • Added support for the Wii Classic Controller attachment.
  • Added support for the Wii Pro Controller.
• Changed:
  • Changed the normal text/feedback to Gamepad <BUTTON> to make room for the new feedback prompts.
• Extra Notes:
  • Yes I know and I'm still working on getting the WiiU Pro Controller working with this application. Its proving to be harder than I thought but I'm working incredibly hard on getting it to work.

v1.1 2023/07/27

• Added:
  • Functionality/input feedback for the TV button on the WiiU GamePad.

v1.0 2023/06/04
