That might work, however, I doubt it will. People should have tested it already a while ago Maybe...

Hmmm...wait till more mods come out

I'm not gonna ruin my only good GC controller. It'd be cool to use a keyboard, but not worth all that work.

dullo is on a distinguished road
with the full internet channel it can be updated at any time. as of right now it doesn't support any keyboard function but in the future an update could make it possible. I hope that keyboards can be used in the near future because typing with the wiimote is a long and VERY annoying process.
