I don't know much about the Wii, but what video game are you trying to play? either the GameCube controller is not compatible with the game more than likely.

if you have an actual GameCube try plugging the controller into a GameCube and see if the controller works on an actual GameCube

Or

Try another try a GameCube game not a Wii game, I don't think the GameCube controller is compatible with Wii game playing on Wii.

I don't think you can play Wii games with an actual GameCube controller


here is a list o game compatible with classic controller but not sure if that includes an old GameCube controller.

Is it a Nintendo controller, or a third party controller? Some third party Gamecube controllers aren't recognized by the Wii (which is why my fiancé's family ended up keeping their Gamecube after getting a Wii- my brother in law's preferred controller wasn't Wii compatible.)
