I'm guessing not since it doesn't plug into the bottom of the wiimote, but since the wii does have usb ports, I thought that I'd ask :)

I don't think the USB ports can be used as controller ports. You might be able to find a USB > GCN converter but I wouldn't know where to point you.

There are retrousb products that allow you to use nes/snes controllers on wii. However they interface through the gamecube ports on the top. Worst case scenario youd need another converter, though it might just be easier to use the retrousb products. http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?cPath=22
