where do you get Wii isos, I hacked my Wii U to play them but the only good dump I've found was Muramasa
>>
>>378265039
just type it on google, or emuparadise.me might get lucky

>>378264958
I felt the same way with Dolphin. Had a leftover gamecube controller from playing smash 4 so thought might aswell try the thing on some gamecube games
Every game on the gamecube list is shit. From Wind waker, mario kart, metroid prime, mario strikers, mario sunshine, killer 7, animal crossing, geist, pikman, sonic adventure 2. I only used it to play OoT and MM

Try Custom Robo.
And why'd you think Pikmin was bad?
>>
>>378265039
I think its called darkumbra. Create an account for free and then enjoy. They are WBFS files so you need something like Wii Backup Manager to transfer them to your USB. Not sure how it works on Wii U but thats the method for Wii.

You could ask on reddit
>>
>>378265579
I use my USB for Wii U games, and it formats it so you can't make partitions or use it for anything else. Does that backup tool work with an SD card?

Only reason to physically own a Wii is for modded brawl and melee

The contents of the SD card in my Wii:
20xx
Sonic Adventure
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
Sonic Heroes
Shadow the Hedgehog

Now you are having fun.

this game is so fucking overrated on /v/. the one on n64 is miles better.

It gets stale very easily. I have heard good about Deadly Premonition.
>>
How do I do it? This LetterBomb thing I'm seeing? Follow those steps and I can then put games on the SD card to play them?
>>
>>378264958
How do you this?
I have Homebrew installed. Should I install priloader next?
>>
>>378267280

Gamecube games is a lot easier than Wii games imo

I'll never understand this at all. I would honestly have to believe someone were to hate video games at this point.
>>
>>378267605
How do I prevent bricking?
>>
>>378267752
I feel the same way about GameCube, or any Nintendo console but the Wii U.
>>
>>378267775
There shouldn't be anymore bricking? Nintendo dropped support on that system ages ago so no more updates.
>>
>>378267605
In addition on that SD card, create a folder named "games" then in that folder put the downloaded iso from emuparadise and rename it "game.iso". That goes for every game.

If you have a spare USB that works on the Wii, then make another games folder but instead create another folder in that folder with the respective games name and in that folder put in "game.iso" to prevent duplicate files
>>
>>378267908
I think Wii U has a pretty solid library, although very sparse.
>>
>>378267752
>>378267908
This is why buyers remorse is good. It makes you value your choices. I bought Rampage on the Wii, and it was fun (though reptitive). Hacking your console makes you value the game less since you can swap it out for anything, anytime with no money lost.
>>
>>378268041
>>378267908
This. I don't exactly hate the Wii U library, it has some decent titles, but it doesn't even come close to Wii or Gamecube.

It'll literally be the black sheep forever.
>>
>>378267752
Almost every game on it was either good in spite of the motion controls, or ignored them completely. The only games that have ever been improved by motion controls are RE4 and metroid prime trilogy.
>>
>>378268231
I think Pikmin is improved by motion controls.

>Gamestop still sells Wii games for $30
>>
>>378268231
I just feel like there were so many unique games for that system with tons of variety in genres that it would be insane to not find more than a handful of games for everyone to enjoy.

>>378268165
Oh I totally agree. This is one of the reasons why I don't like emulating games that much. I honestly feel like I would appreciate the game for whatever reason an can just swap at any chance I get.
>>
But pokemon colosseum and xD were good?
>>
>>378268231
Mario Galaxy 1+2 (for the pointer)
No More Heroes
Pikmin 1+2 (especially this one cause like Prime and RE4 we have something to compare it to)

Pro Evolution Soccer, Tiger Woods PGA Tour, any of the CoDs/Goldeneye 007 once you've calibrated the aiming to your liking.

Goldeneye 007 was fun fucking up the Classic Controller scrubs.

Why the fuck does Mario Power Tennis not allow co-op tourney?

Compared to the libraries of the xbox/360/xbone it's vastly superior though.
I mean sure, it doesn't have much on the ps2 or ps3 but still, it's top quality stuff.

Your Wii can play gc games without hacking it, retard.
>>
>>378271426
Not all models can play GC games. Also, he probably meant USB Loading and Nintendont

>hack my wii to play Wii games

what did he mean by this

>>378271734
how do u hack your wii
>>
>>378267775
install Bootmii, you can even bypass the Wii Menu and go right to Homebrew
>>
>>378271993
Google and a /vg/ general are your friends.
>>
>>378271978
So he can play pirated games.

>>378266121
Agreed, anon.

It looks like, for Zelda Four Swords, the PAL version has PAL printed on the disc while NTSC has the ESRB rating listed on the disc. Should be easy to figure out which one it is, in that case.
>>
>>378273548
it's an iso, not a physical game
>>
>>378273652
>it's an iso
Then shouldn't the ROM player just be able to play it regardless? Emulation doesn't give a fuck about regional differences.

Hell, half the reason to hack the Wii is to play out-of-region games.
>>
>>378264958
If you have a Wii it's definitely worth getting homebrew on. If you can't find weeks worth of games to play, I dunno what you're on, but there's a good amount there. You got VC and almost every gamecube game, that's a good chuck of gameplay.
>>
>>378265793
Gee dude, it's almost like they're not making new games for those consoles anymore
>>
>>378264958
I bought a pre used gen 1 model for $50
It not only plays GCN games but 4 GCN controller ports
