So whenever I start up project M, my wii remote bricks and I need to activate a 2nd remote to get the first one to activate and start the game. I'm on a Wii U and never had this issue with 2.6.

I'm having an incredibly similar issue that I think is worth pointing out. To shed a little more light onto this, it's that you can't use the Gecko OS if you're using a Wii Remote that has Wii motion plus built in. I figured this out a while back when trying to play Project M with a friend. They only had 1 Wii Remote with Wiimotion plus built in, and I didn't know why their Wiiremote blacked out then. When I got my own Wii remote with Wiimotion plus built in ((just to test this I used two Wiimotion plus built in remotes since my friend had one)) and it's just that the Gecko OS can't handle it for some reason.
If you use a regular Wii remote and have a Wii motion+ attachment, it works fine. If you use one with Wii Motion+ Built in, it won't work and you can't start up Project M.

Also I should point out that this isn't a Wii U thing. The same thing is true even if you start it up on a regular Nintendo Wii.

the Gecko OS is the one that comes WITH the Project M download. I don't know why this isn't working.

Or more specifically, if this has been reported before or if anyone has even bothered trying to fix it at all.

Wait so how do I update it then? I just downloaded it the first day Project m 3.0 came out.
