Scott, this is an adapter for the computer, not the Wii U, you can however buy these for the Wii U, they work perfectly: Mayflash Nintendo GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U

No, the Wii U does not have GameCube ports. However, you can make it work if you buy an adapter:http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/06/you_can_now_use_your_gamecube_pad_on_your_wii_u

Perhaps. There are GameCube controller adapters such as Mayflash Nintendo GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U that supposedly will allow you to play on the Wii U. I haven't tried one.The Wii U does not have GameCube ports, and games released on the Wii U aren't made with the GameCube control scheme in mind.

I don't have a Wii U, so I don't know if this card will work. Please check the Wii U website for further details on the product specifications.

You can use it with your Wii U, you just have to resync it to the Wii U and vice versa.

This controller is for the Wii U only and will not work when playing Wii games on the Wii U.

Yes but it will not play exactly like a GameCube Controller would. This adapter causes the Wii U to recognize the controller as a Classic Controller, and some liberties had to be taken in order to make this happen. For example, the shoulder buttons on the Cube Controller are pressure sensitive and the Classic Controller's are not, so this adapter will not read the degree of pressure you're putting on the shoulder buttons. You have to press the GameCube Controller's shoulder buttons all the way down in order for the console to recognize it as a button press. For a more faithful and high quality adapter, I recommend the official adapter (the one with four Controller ports that plugs into the Wii U's USBs). I own both and after using the official one, I'm never going back to using the Mayflash one.

Not exactly. It won't work with Wiiu games. This is intended for either the Wii or the Wii virtual console that is built within the Wiiu.

After Nintendo announced the official adapter in May, all of the older answers here are rendered wrong. All gamecube controllers can be used with the Wii U with the (still unreleased but confirmed) adapter. However, as of today (August 19th) We don't know yet if the adapter will work with all wii U games, only a few, or just with Super Smash Brothers for Wii U.

Nope my friend.. wii u its compatible with the old wii remotes, wii nunchuks, wii classic controller, wii u pro controller and soon it will be compatible with gamecube controllers aswell. But of course it all depends on the games.. if a game it's designed to use motion device.. u will most likely have to use the wii remotes to play and other stuffs, some games let you use all type of controllers.. others don't.

I'm not sure. If it doesn't state that it works with Wii U in the description, I wouldn't use it on Wii U. Otherwise, it is great on the regular Wii system.

Yes, any sort of remote that works on the Wii works on the Wii U (except for gamecube controllers...for now)

yes it plays on the wii console and It is an official product, it has serial numbers and the authentic Nintendo trademark symbol on the back on the controller. I play super smash bros brawl on the wii and it works perfectly and I play super smash bros melee on the gamecube and it works perfectly.
