→Using Controllers in Emulators / Games Not Supporting Them
However, if you want to use your Wiimote as a general purpose controller and pointing device, and not only for Dolphin but lots of other games, get those [http://www.julianloehr.de/educational-work/hid-wiimote/ custom Windows drivers] and you'll be able to map its various controls in other emulators and games.
===PS Move===
[https://github.com/MooseTheBrown/psmoveinput Psmoveinput] is a userspace Linux input driver that gives users ability to control mouse pointer movements by moving PSMove controller and map PSMove keys to common keyboard keys. It's based on the unofficial [https://github.com/thp/psmoveapi PSMove API].

==Using Controllers in Emulators / Games Not Supporting Them==
Sometimes, the application you use simply doesn't recognize the newly plugged-in controller, be it a standard PC Gamepad or a Console Controller. Often, it's just the bare minimum keyboard and mouse controls are supported. For these situations there are third-party tools which convert each gamepad button press to a preset keyboard/mouse input, thus allowing you to use your controllers at all times.
Remember to open those with administrator privileges when used with programs opened as administrator, or else the button presses won't register.
*[https://github.com/AntiMicro/antimicro/releases '''AntiMicro:'''] Free and open-source alternative to Xpadder. Current versions are forked from an [https://emulationrealm.net/downloads/file/3374-antimicro-windows-64bit earlier version] by different people and under active development after original developer quit due to online harassment. Arguably the best tool available out there for this task. Supports macros and a wide range of controllers (including the Xbox One controller).
*[https://inputmapper.com/downloads-beta/inputmapper '''InputMapper:'''] Project to support various console controllers in games, which started with the DualShock 4 and expanded to other controllers.
*[http://ahkscript.org '''AutoHotKey:'''] One of the more powerful key scripting language tools available out there. You can for example map complex hotkeys (like Ctrl+Alt+Del) or sequences of hotkeys and/or keypresses (like the Konami Code) to a single key in your keyboard... or gamepad. It's like a scripting language on its own, which though simple may be too much effort for the average user.
*'''Xpadder:''' Has been freeware until version 5.3, when it went shareware. The original gamepad mapping utility, but a bit underwhelming compared to other alternatives.
*[http://joytokey.net/en/ '''JoyToKey:'''] Shareware, but has a free version. Includes macros, a shift function (to map more keys than the number of buttons on the gamepad) and a turbo function for mashing keys quickly.
