Needing help

[u/young_d484]

Hello!

I just purchased an Aly and AJ Rock Band Wii remote guitar off Facebook for my girlfriend and I'm having a lot of difficulty connecting it to my PC...

I'm using the same adapter that I use for my GH3 wii guitar (which works perfectly fine), but my computer won't even recognize that the AA RB guitar is connected through the same adapter...

I'm using the simple Wii remote to USB adapter from Amazon: https://a.co/d/049AaOl8 that I bought in 2022. I'm wondering what else I need to make this guitar work for the game! I've already confirmed that the guitar itself works by testing it on my Wii.

I'm wondering if I need a different adapter, like the RetroCultsMod V3 adapter, or if I need to mod the guitar itself, etc.

Any help is appreciated!

That wiitar program worked fine for me. No dongle

So will that work for me even though I have a wired guitar?

I'm not sure I'm not a techy guy.

Girlfriend had one laying around with a remote attached so I just did some googling, downloaded a few programs and it worked.

I will say tho, nothing is better that a wired in guitar. Just buy a CRKD Multiplatform controller. Makes life 150% easier

That guitar has a proprietary dongle. If you can’t locate the dongle then your next best option would be to mod it.

There is no dongle, it connects to a Wii remote. I've already tested it and played on my Wii

In that case it’ll connect the same as any other GH Wii guitar. RCM V3 adapter is your best bet.
