Explain what a "brawl ISO" is, and how to get one.
A "brawl iso" is well...the game, but now on your computer. To get one youll need a program called "clean rip" (google is your friend) and a copy of Super Smash Bros Brawl. If you have a copy but for whatever reason your wii doesnt want to read the disc...there are other ways, but your on your own for that.

Well, I downloaded a version that should work for Dolphin, so I don't see why I would need a brawl disk for that. My problem is just that I can't figure out how to navigate the Gecko menu, since Port 1 on the GC Adapter does nothing.

Brawl disc for legality fam. Also i assumed you were using wii. If your using dolphin you can just find a version that loads pm.(i think theres one on smashboards but dont quote me on that)

ok, ignore the legality stuff - this isn't helping.
The issue here is you have half a setup.

Quick rundown of what PM is:

Project M is a brawl mod. Project M takes Brawl, then uses codes to call assets from an SD card.
The dolphin version of this is much the same. It takes Brawl, and calls assets from a 'virtual sd'

From what i can see in the video, you have a projectM elf file, which is part of the virtualSD. Brawl needs to be present for the rest of it to work.

Follow this guide:
https://www.smashladder.com/guides/view/2777/project-m-3-6-sd-v4-bigger-better-faster

What is needed:
  • Super Smash Bros Brawl NTSC ISO (You have to obtain this on your own. You are not allowed to ask on the site) : Check Compatibility
  • Preconfigured Ishiiruka-Dolphin FM 5.8.7 Build (from above)
  • Optional: Netplay Safe HD Retexture Pack (from above)
Then as far as obtaining an iso (which is an image of a disc)
you either need to rip one from your own brawl disc or torrent one / find a friend with one etc. - which i cant link you here.

PM isnt going to work without that.

Once you have that - we can figure out whats going wrong with the controller. because until then youre not going to have anything to control anyway.
