Simultaneous two player mode

skylanders-giantswii-u

I bought Skylanders Giants for my kids and they've done something to make it so that in two player mode they can't play at the same time, something they've been able to do before. They press the - button on either the Wii U gamepad or Wii controller to swap to the other player. How can I make it simultaneous two player again?

Best Answer

According to the Skylanders Giants Wii U manual:

CO-OP PLAY
At any time during Story Mode, a second player can join the game by hitting the A Button on their Wii Remote, and placing a Skylander on the Portal of Power. To drop out of the game, Player 1 or Player 2 must remove their Skylander from the Portal of Power and press the B Button on their Wii Remote.

(Emphasis mine).

I would assume what happens is they don't have two Skylanders on the portal, so they just switch control on a single Skylander between the two controllers.
