App Details
Notice: Bloopair is no longer developed to support older custom firmwares (Mocha, Haxchi, and Coldboot Haxchi). Going forward, all future releases will only work with Tiramisu. If you are currently using the Tiramisu environment, please locate the other Bloopair listing for your custom firmware.
Bloopair allows connecting controllers from other consoles like native Wii U Pro Controllers on the Wii U.
It temporarily applies patches to the IOS-PAD module responsible for Bluetooth controller connections.
Features:
- Connect up to 7 controllers wirelessly via Bluetooth
- Rumble support
- Battery levels
Supported controllers:
- Nintendo Switch Pro Controller
- Nintendo Switch Joy-Con
- Nintendo Switch Online SNES / N64 Controller
- Microsoft Xbox One S/X Controller
- Sony DualShock 3 Controller
- Sony DualShock 4 Controller
- Sony DualSense Controller
Note: The Series S/X Controllers are currently not supported due to missing Bluetooth LE support
Note: To pair a DualShock 3 to the console, see the Pairing a DualShock 3 section
Usage:
1. Run Bloopair from the Homebrew Launcher. Once launched, the Wii U Menu should open.
2. Once back in the Wii U menu, press the SYNC button on your console and controller.
3. Wait until the controller is connected.
If a controller had been paired in the past, simply turn it on again and it should reconnect.
After rebooting the console or exiting System Settings, relaunch Bloopair.
Pairing a DualShock 3:
The DualShock 3 needs to be paired using a USB cable. After the initial pairing it can be used like any other wireless Bluetooth controller.
- While launching Bloopair from the Homebrew Launcher, hold down the A button on the Gamepad.
- You should now be in the USB pairing menu.
- Connect the DualShock 3 using a USB cable to the front or back ports of the console.
- The screen will say "Paired!" once the controller has been successfully paired.
- You can now remove the USB cable from the controller. Press the PS button to connect it to the console.
- Press the B button to exit to the Home Menu
The DualShock 3 is now ready to use with the console.
