I just got a Wii U, and a few extras, including some Wii games and a Wii Remote + (Peach edition!)
So I was trying to play a Wii game (Super Mario Galaxy) and after launching the game, pressing START and waiting for the warning to go away, I get a blue screen with the following:
Communications with [Wii Remote] have been interrupted. Press [A] without touching the Control Stick on [the nunchuck].
Pressing A does nothing.
Pressing Home brings up the HOME Menu with a few options, such as returning to the wii menu, resetting, or just closing the menu - all of which work perfectly fine with the remote.
How to make the remote actually work with the game?!?
-----------------
EDIT:
Never mind. Figured out that it was because I had first synced a Wii U controller, and the Wii remote got bumped to player 2 and the game wouldn't run without the remote set as player 1.
So I figured out how to change the order and now all is good!
