These instruction are made with a Nintendo Pro controller and Joy-Cons. While the overall process will be the same the motion axis may not match those found on a Sony DualShock 4.
- Recent dolphin version (do not use 5.0 stable!)
- HID Nintendo kernel driver (dkms https://github.com/nicman23/dkms-hid-nintendo)
- Switch pro or Joy-Con.
The HID Nintendo kernel driver exposes 2 evdev devices, one for the buttons and another (IMU) for the accelerators/gyroscopes. Do note that Joy-Cons will have 2 devices each (4 in total).
It took me a bit of time figuring out which axis corresponds with the right motion control in dolphin.
Dolphin motion | Evdev |
---|---|
Accel Up | Accel Z+ |
Accel Down | Accel Z- |
Accel Left | Accel Y+ |
Accel Right | Accel Y- |
Accel Forward | Accel X+ |
Accel Backward | Accel X- |
Pitch Up | Gyro Y- |
Pitch Down | Gyro Y+ |
Roll Left | Gyro X- |
Roll Right | Gyro X+ |
Yaw Left | Gyro Z+ |
Yaw Right | Gyro Z- |
As the default buttons are all wrong reset all buttons in the Wii Remote configuration. To configure the motion controls you have to use the advanced config window. Right click on each motion button in the Wii Remote configure window. Select the appropriate IMU device at the top and find the corresponding evdev key.

So for "Accel Up" in dolphin you need to configure "Accel Z+".
The end result should look like below.
