Help - I think my Virtual Console broke :(

So I've been really enjoying my Wii, especially Metroid Prime 3: Corrupition, but I'm having a fairly big problem with the Virtual Console.
I downloaded Kirby's Adventure, but now whenever I try to jump, the controls don't work right. The game fails to recognize the 2 button on the remote, and whenever I press "up" (which is actually right on the dpad when you hold the remote sideways), the game acts like I'm HOLDING up.
There's nothing wrong with the buttons themselves; they work just fine in Metroid Prime 3. I'm thinking maybe I had a button pressed when I exited the game once, so the save state might have messed the emulator up somehow. I don't know.
Has anyone ever had this problem? Is there a way to "reset" the controller in a virtual console game?
Am I just screwed big time?

PM Me if you add me!
Just have one remote. Redownloading didn't help.
What?
Somebody, ANYBODY got any ideas?
got a gamecube controller to test it with?
Are you using the cables you got for your Wii? Cause i know that when I got some cheap component cables and use them and play virtual console games they don't respond, but everything else works fine.
I can't for the life of me figure out how that would affect the 2 button on the remote, but I'll try switching to the standard cables for a bit.
Yeah when I switched back to regular it worked fine again.
So it turns out that I'm a moron.
APPARENTLY, I'd forgotten that my Gamecube controller was hooked up to the Wii.
It was face down on the floor.
And you know what happens when a Gamecube controller is face down? That big green "win" button gets pressed. Yeah. So.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
That's really interesting. I don't know what to say other than...interesting.

Well you just wasted 15 minutes of my life.
