How to Program a Wii Controller With Instructions

A Wii controller is your gateway to the console's motion-gaming technology. Wii does not offer any wired controllers, meaning you must wirelessly program each remote to work with your specific system. As with any video game console, this process is streamlined for ease of use. Sync your controller with your Wii using the system's built-in wireless technology.
