Emulators for Wii/GameCube

corronchilejano · Post by **corronchilejano** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 6:18 pm

So, what machines are emulated on Wii or GameCube? I'm looking for a SNES emulator, but I've no idea how to search for it, or how would it be burned (both my GC and WII are modded).

Also, is there any PSX emu for any of those two?

The Wii has a whole lot - check the Virtual Console. ;p

I CANT buy games on the Virtual Console since there's no current way for me to get points. Also, on the PSX side, I want to play Driver again, but on my Cube/Wii.

It's been an eternity since I checked the GameCube homebrew/hack scene...Last I checked it wasn't really practical.

So, is it possible to run homebrew applications (like the Snes emulator mentioned above) without a modchip?

Snark: As far as I know, the dreamcast was the only system you could play pirated games without spending any money on stuff other than blank discs. At least a set of swap cds.

corron: Awwr, you has no spare money or a bank debit card with visa or something?

A. Homebrew is not pirated.
B. The pre-CDR machines are all open. TurboCD, SegaCD, NeoGeoCD, 3D0hno.

More like Virtual Console DOES NOT WORK in my country, or any type of online play on Wii for that matter.

Gil: Good point, but I'm sure the console doesn't care to make a difference, and I didn't know about the older consoles, that's pretty cool.

corron: Oh. ^^;

really? for some reason I thought it did, that sucks. What region of games do you guys get? US NTSC?

We don't really get anything over here. It just doesn't connect saying "Online Services are unavailable." People have told me that there's service on Brazil and going south, and like Honduras going up, they all have Virtual Console. It's like 3 countries here that can't use it.

It's colombia, what did you expect? The only thing there of worth is Adelaida Puerta.

Hell no. There's XBox live, and even PSN, but Nintendo went out of this land a long long time ago (pretty much like god). Hey, we got coffee, soap operas and a good soccer team.

you should write in to Nintendo HQ and tell them they're losing business

They're not. Due to taxes, both 360, PS3 and Wii *GASP* cost around the same! Wii is at 500dollars, 360 is at 550, PS3 (with EMOTION) is at 700. Thats why I import everything.

Back to topic, anyone knows what happened to that experiment to emulate PS1 on GC? Until the Wii is hacked like a turkey on a US thanksgiving, I rely on everything gamecube.

no, what I meant is that they're losing your money because they don't offer virtual console to you. Also what region is it there?

You make a really mean cocaine, as well. Can't forget that. Plus some heroin for kicks.

Hey, we make it, you take it. Go open markets!

That sucks. Isn't there any way to use the Wii's online features by proxy of some kind?

Panzer88 · Post by **Panzer88** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 12:55 am

yeah I was wondering how it detected regions. So like if I bought a japanese wii could I download japanese only virtual console game?

I would assume it has more to do with the ISP or your IP.

Hmmm... maybe I could get some service through spoofing?

Panzer88 · Post by **Panzer88** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 3:25 am

I wonder if there is anyway to lie to whatever is checking such things to gain access to that content.

for example, Xbox live is based on the country of your passport/hotmail/live account, so I can access japanese or uk only content by registering a free silver account with a live email address from those countries.

in fact that's exactly what I do

SD Media Launcher sounds really easy to use. Maybe I should get one as well, since, you know, there are alot of a games that needed to be ported to the virtual console (*cough* Chrono Trigger *cough*) Would this work on a wii in gcn mode or did a recent Nintendo update render it unusable?

It's certainly possible that the recent update rendered it unusable. Damn it, I was hoping for a Wii Freeloader!
