Viimote is a plugin that allows you to play with your PS Vita using a WiiMote as controller.

Installation

Copy viimote.skprx to ux0:tai/ or ur0:tai/.

Add the following lines to taiHEN config (change to ur0 if you store the plugin there)

*KERNEL
ux0:tai/viimote.skprx

You need to refresh the config.txt by rebooting or through VitaShell.

User guide

First time using it (aka pairing):

• Go to Setting > Devices > Bluetooth Devices.
• Press 1+2 (SYNC won't work) on the Wiimote during 2 seconds.
• The Wiimote will pair and connect automatically (don't press over it when it appears).

After pairing it, simply need to press any button (instead of pressing 1+2) to connect it to the Vita.

Supported extensions:

• Nunchuk.
• Classic Controller.
• Taiko TaTaCon Drum Controller.

Note: If you use Mai, don't put the plugin inside ux0:/plugins because Mai will load all stuff you put in there.
