These values make me think some of the bits in brake and power are actually unused or for something else. My guess is that similar packing to one of the other extensions is being used (e.g. classic controller). FYI, Nintendo has established some pseudo-standards for data layouts (so M+ pass-through can work) e.g. buttons are always the last two bytes and analog values have significant bits in certain places.

Yeah, the button layout is identical to the classic controller with some buttons missing.
Regarding brake and power values, I can't see any pattern in binary:
53: 00110101
79: 01001111
105: 01101001
132: 10000100
159: 10011111
187: 10111011
217: 11011001
250: 11111010

Maybe it's the same layout as Classic Controller's LT/RT and the unused bits are random to confuse us?

Or maybe the extension actually uses the "1st-party" encryption so things are all wonky with "3rd-party"? The instruments use "1st party" fwiw.
This Wiimote extension is only compatible with Densha de Go! Shinkansen EX. I don't actually have access to the physical controller and the game doesn't have symbols, so this is all based on guesswork but it seems to work pretty well. We don't support LED outputs yet. All you can do with the door lockout light is map it to a rumble effect^^
