The peripheral is also incompatible with GameCube controller compatible Virtual Console or Wii games playable on the Wii U. This peripheral will not work for any other games.

Like the revised Wii models, the Wii U does not include GameCube controller ports, but a USB peripheral, released in November 2014, allows players to use GameCube controllers with Super Smash Bros. This list only applies if these games are played with the original version of the Wii console, as the newer, revised late 2011 Wii models are not backward-compatible with GameCube games and accessories, including the controller since the revised console lack the controller ports the original 2006 model had. Many of the games on this list are ports of prior generation games or games that were concurrently released on other consoles with traditional control schemes such as PlayStation 2, 3, and 4 and the Xbox 360 and One. This list does not include games released on Nintendo's Virtual Console as the Classic Controller and GameCube controller can also be used for all Virtual Console games, with the exception of some TurboGrafx-16 games. This is a list of released video games for the Wiivideo game consoles which allow use of Classic Controller/Classic Controller Pro and/or GameCube controller.
