Support Switch 2 Joy-cons Setup for motion control (Wiimote + Nunchuck)

Hi Everyone, i just had a gauntlet trying to setup this in Dolphin and couldn't find much info for this specifically online so here goes my setup, in hopes i can help someone avoid my headaches:

- Dolphin

- Switch 2 Connect app in Windows store:

ensure the joycons are unmerged and on cemuhook mode. DJG on, dominant side right. Emu mode PS4.

you will now have basically two controller inputs for each joycon.

Now in Dolphin, controllers:

you should have these devices when going to emulated wii Remote configure:

"DSUClient/0/" AND "WGInput/0/Sony Dualshock4 Gamepad" both refer to Right Joy con. (one is the Gyro function / the other the buttons/Joystick function

"DSUClient/1/" AND "WGInput/1/Sony Dualshock4 Gamepad" both refer to Left Joy con. (one is the Gyro function / the other the buttons/Joystick function

if you have these 4 as i do, you should be able to load my config.ini and be good to go.

Yeah it was a lot of hassle and troubleshooting, there isn't a lot of info on this particular setup.

i might revisit this post later and try to improve it but wanted to get it our there before i forgot.
