The Legend of Zelda (Original) Virtual Console can’t select item to use on b!

I bought The Legend of Zelda for Virtual Console and my problem is, that I can't select any item on the B button in the subscreen.

Of course I read the discription that says I should use the d-pad (I use the Wiimote) but it doesn't work.

I also tried a GameCube controller and it's the same effect. All other things works fine, but this doesn't work either.

Can anyone tell me how to select different items on B, please?

As you're referring to your bow, you've probably just left the first dungeon, meaning you don't have any arrows. Without arrows, the bow is unequippable. Buy \ Find some arrows and you should be able to equip the bow to your B menu, alternatively, find another item you can equip (bombs, boomerang, etc).
