Wii Menu Overview

Wii U

The Wii Menu allows you to play Wii game discs, WiiWare, and Virtual Console titles.

You will need to use a Wii Remote (or Wii Remote Plus), which must first be synchronized, to navigate the menu.

With system update version 4.0.0 U, the ability to use the Wii U GamePad screen as a display in Wii Mode was added.

  • You cannot use the Wii U GamePad's screen or buttons to control the Wii Menu or games while in Wii Mode. It is used for display only.
