Just the dedicated GUI and plug and play experience. That being said I really miss the dedicated emulator user experience. the emulation IS very very good and there are just so many cores available. I know I must have some issues with the installation or a bad nightly.īut. Not only that I get into some menu options and then can't get out (themes and appearance). I can load it using the forwarder but not from HBL. I'm an experienced user (though relatively new to the Wii U) and I had some trouble getting RetroArch working. Honestly, I sometimes just load my games from their straight-up VC copies because it's just darn faster.but RetroArch is kind of the ultra-perfectionist's emulation program.Well I don't really want to bash the excellent and amazing work in RetroArch, but I understand the perspective. It really is kind of daunting the number of different things you can configure. RetroArch is somewhat is always kind of a chore to get running compared to something that is system specific.but it is basically a frontend with almost limitless video/audio/et al options to select from. Also, it has to be in the "apps" folder of whatever external storage you are going to load it from. I think I have to go in and edit the configuration file manually to reset it to respond to my Wii Remote.Īnyhoo, also, something nobody seems comfy saying in the INSTructions is, you have put all relevant files for RetroArch's wii port into a folder called "retroarch-wii." You understand that exact filename ("retroarch-wii"), or the homebrew channel won't recognize it. Why would I tell you this? Bitter experience of the current moment. Don't set it to "Gamepad Driver">HID and try out your controller, check compatibility with the device first. Our Wii is connected to a 1080p 52 inch screen (via component cables from the Wii), so raw pixels would probably look downright ugly on it. Snes9x has become my 'go to' emulator for Nintendo's 16-bit console, and I can't see myself trying to load up something else (like my former one ZSnes) on there.not even really sure if that is possible.Īt any rate, perhaps my soon-to-be emulated consoles on Wii should stick to 8-bit emulation, with maybe a not-so-demanding Sega Genesis on there.UNLESS, Snes9x games still look decent enough even WITHOUT the HQ filters? Then whenever Nintendo decides to stop updating the Wii U, perhaps add Snes emulation to that. Our Wii is currently still 'stock', but I have everything necessary to add emulation to it (seeing as how Nintendo won't be updating the firmware again), but perhaps, instead of adding Snes9x for it, I should just stick to some of the lesser demanding emulators, such as Nestopia/UE or FCUEx, and some TG and Genesis emulators. Hmm.this has given me something to think about (HQ settings for Snes9x on the Wii), as I LOVE using the best possible settings for the emulator on my PC (which is a reasonably powerful rig).
