So /vr/, what are your preferred ways of playing your classic vidya? Pic related, an old Wii I had sitting around that I modded and made a monster out of. This + a classic controller delivers a pretty decent gaming experience for pretty much all pre-polygonal vidya.

That looks terrible.
Why did you tape the harddrive to the bottom? Now you can't lay it flat.

You could have used some velcro strips to keep them together instead of mummifying the poor thing.
>>
>>3624351
One, nothing's on the bottom, I don't get what you mean. Also it's not taped on, but it's in a pocket fashioned out of duct tape. Originally it WAS velcro'd on, but the thing is the weight of the drive combined with the heat from the wii would cause the glue to fail, and the velcro was ruined within two months or so.

Oh, Hi Drakon

I use original consoles. I'm glad a freak with a duct tape fetish like you doesn't.
>>
>>3624318
That is ghetto as fuck, but clever.
>>
If you are going to use a wii2hdmi, you might as well just use a pc
>>
>>3624449
Why would I want to tie up my PC emulating Wii and GC games when I could just play on original hardware?

This has me wondering if there IS a more elegant way to integrate a Wii with a USB hard drive
>>
>>3624624
Looks like most people who care just tuck the HD into one of these
>>
>>3624583

None said anything about tying up your PC with GC and Wii games. This is a retro board and your post states that you are using it for retro games. The Wii will have more lag when hooked up to an LCD screen than a PC outputting the proper video resolution.
>>
For now, any retro games I play are either going to be on the Shield Portable or Tablet depend on the game itself. Both work fine and more retro games play well on them for now.
>>
>>3624624
If you don't have to have every fucking game ever, you can use a big SD card or USB stick as the costs have gone down considerably.
>>
>>3624860
Wii's SD card limit is 2GB
>>
>>3624318
I pretty much only play NES and SNES for the most part, but I play on real hardware with a CRT and a flash cart.

>your post states
Which post was that sport? That was my first post ITT. Posting on this board doesn't make it illegal to play modern games as well faggot. Get your head out of your ass.
>>
>>3624985
No, it's actually 32 gigs
>>
>>3624318
I mostly just emulate everything on my HTPC nowadays. I am looking to build some sort of machine that can output 15khz video to play emulated games on a CRT but I'm not really in a rush to do that.
>>
>>3625037

Hey sport, modern games aren't allowed here, smarten up.
>>
>>3624598

Wait, how well does the Vita emulate now? Any PC Engine CDs emus for it?
>>
>>3625037

Are you Australian or from the UK? You have a certain type of autism that could only be explained by years of brain strain from playing poorly optimized NTSC games or your PAL TV.
>>
>>3624318
What HDD is that? I though you need a HDD with a power supply...
>>
i have a modded wii but i rarely used it for emulation cause i hate having to use the classic controller with the wii mote flopping around in my lap suckin down batterys. So i just use stand alone emulators on the computer until i get a raspberry pi or a nes classic.
>>
>>3625092
>Raspberry Pi
Why.
>NES Classic
Why?? You said you use multiple emulators, why would you pay for an emulator that limits you to 30 games for one system?
>>
>>3625057
Games work good but there's no shader support yet so wait that one for now.
>>
>>3625059
Well I thought this was funny
>>
>>3625092
Then plug literally any USB controller in, retard

>>3625078
Nope. Do a little research, dumb ass.

>>3624985
Nope


THIS is why we think you children are fucking retards. I don't even have a Wii and I know this shit.
>>
>>3624985
Only for poorly written software based on outdated libraries. Unfortunately a lot of Wii homebrew is like this.
