GameCube on the Nintendo Wii - Play all the games with Nintendont

Nintendont is a Wii Homebrew app that lets you play any GameCube game directly on the Wii hardware. This means that any game you have an iso disk file for will play at full speed.
In this video I'll show you how to download and install Nintendont, and then how to connect it up to USBLoaderGX so you have a combined Wii / GameCube games library with a great user interface.

Really interresting what else can the wii emulate, The series has been great.

@@BytesNBits Thanks again for being so helpful, looking forward to the next video

[@g4z-kb7ct]

@@andrewferguson7762 I have Atari 2600, 5200 and 7800 and Colecovision on my Wii and it's great. I also have N64 but it's too slow since no one has any clue how to properly emulate the N64 so all the emulators are not optimized / rubbish which means it requires at least 8th Gen i7/i9 to get full speed.

[@morebasheder]

Just one question Bob: on my Wii, both of the USB ports on the back are taken up by the hard drive, I'm assuming one for data, one for extra power. Are you using a USB hub if you're connecting USB controllers then? 🤔

[@BytesNBits]

If you're using the same sort of SATA converter as me it should run on just the USB3 cable - that's how I've got mine connected. Otherwise, yes, a USB hub should work. Having said that I found my wired XBox controller unreliable and bought a second hand Classic Controller. It plugs into the Wii handset so gives you a wireless controller that works with everything. Only about £15 on eBay.

[@morebasheder]

@@BytesNBits yeah I have one of those, but I'm thinking maybe an actual wired GameCube controller would be better, easier than the faff of setting up the sensor etc. and are known to work in the Wii 👍🏼

[@vortex1s]

you can already play the gamecube on the wii if you have the right model nintendont is only used to play "legally" acquired games

[@BytesNBits]

Yes. The earlier models could play the GameCube disks. Nintendont lets all Wii models play the games as well as allowing you to use game backup files.

[@t3zsvids]

This is working for me perfect when launching from Nintendont, but if I try to launch the games from GXLoader it freezes, if I try to exit GXLoader I also get a black screen, I have also noticed that any software I launch via gxloader it freezes. Any recommendations here? I went through the vid multiple times to ensure I have the correct settings.

[@BytesNBits]

I'd check your cIOS installations to make sure they are all installed correctly. My ModMii video is probably the best one to look at. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boPHqHuKaKhkbKc

[@yumadizumi]

What do you recommend on the space size for the USB used to store the games?

[@BytesNBits]

It really depends on how many games you'll want to play. I'd probably use at least a 64Gb drive. More if you can.

[@joycetan1803]

Hello, where do u download the covers? and how do u make the covers show up, mine was just stuck in intializing network.

[@BytesNBits]

If you can't get your Wii to connect to your WiFi you can download the covers using the backup manager app on your PC. If you search you'll find some instructions on how to do it. This will download the covers to your USB drive so USBLoader can use them.

[@coltonhall5446]

11:45 im having trouble with Memcard Emulation staying on, whenever I leave Nintendont it switches back to off, simply won’t save. Also The games load but I can’t save because It says I have no memory card inserted. I have to open my games from Nintendont and won’t open from USBloaderGX and don’t know how to fix this. Pls help…

[@BytesNBits]

That's a strange one. I think Nintendont tries to save its settings files into the apps folder where the code files are stored. Make sure this is writable. Try changing the setting and exiting fully out of Nintendont and Home brew before playing any games. See if that saves it. Not sure what else to try.

[@sethsnipes7148]

I'm was having a similar problem. I decided just to run gamecube games from nintendont because although wii games work fine when running gamecube games from usbloader my wii disconnects from the tv entirely. Running through nintendont worked fine, but memcard emulation turned off whenever I exited nintendont. I accidentally fixed the memcard emulation problem when I turned memcard emulation on, then ran a game up to a save point before exiting nintendont. (now memcard emulation stays on but i still cant run from usbloader)@@BytesNBits

[@TheGuyNamedSparrowAltAcc]

Why won't the gamecube games show up on USB Loader GX? I have my custom paths set properly and it's checked in the show games thing at the top.

[@BytesNBits]

Are the games on the same drive as the Wii games? Can Nintendont see them?

[@TheGuyNamedSparrowAltAcc]

Yea, I have everything in one partition and in their correct folders.

[@jacksonezzell6491]

I followed along on this video and other videos as well. I am running into two issues when trying to play game cube games. 1) When I run the game directly in Nintendont the game will load and get to the “select start” screen. I am using the classic wii controller and when I get to that screen nothing on the controller works and the 4 blue dots at the bottom are all lit up and nothing works. I am then forced to turn off the Wii. Do you have to have a usb controller/game cube controller in order to play these games? Or can you use the classic wii remote still? 2) I have the games in the USBloadergx. Then I select the game I want to play and all of a sudden after I click start my screen turns blue and says no signal. However I can hear the game running in the background. I have a hdmi adapter plugged in and my usb drive. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot these?

[@jacksonezzell6491]

UPDATE: I got it to work just needed to plug in the nunchucks to the controller. However still having issues with #2. GC game works perfect in Nintendont but when i go over to USB Loader gx and try running the GC game screen turns off and says no signal but can hear the game running in background. Not sure how to stop this from happening???

[@BytesNBits]

There are a couple of settings in USBLoader for the video output. One is to do with the 480p fixes, some will be to do with the Nintendont setup. I'd try having a play around with those. It sounds very much like an incompatible HDMI output being triggered by USBLoader. Hope you get it working.

On your sd card there is a folder called bootmii, you can rename this folder to something else (don't delete it in case you need to use BootMii in the future). Or inside that folder there is a file called bootmii.ini. You can edit that file with notepad or similar, you just add the following linea to the end of the file. AUTOBOOT=SYSMENU

[@BytesNBits]

Did you use the Gamecube backup manager to install the files to the drive? They need to be formmated and named named in a specific way.

[@chum4641]

I fixed it. I did some research and found some github pages from people who had the same problem. Turns out there was a hidden file extension so nintendont was trying to read “game.iso.iso”. So just having it as “game” worked for me. The same thing applies if you skip the backup manager part, just name the file you got from nKit -> Processed as “game”. The video was a huge help and I would not have gotten as far as I did without it. For other people reading, I would recommend getting the backup manager anyway, as my memory card was third party and I’ve had some problems with corruption/losing my whole custom robo save; the card also caused the issue with being stuck on “Loading IOS58 Kernel”. If this happens, try taking it out before loading nintendont and then put it in when the game asks for it. If you’re curious: if you have it in booting up nintendont, it will get stuck but then if you take it out it will load, but when I did this the game wouldn’t load so just leave it out until the game asks for it. Also recommend typing your specific problem in the internet for this kind of stuff or making github/reddit/discord post, in that order.

[@metalstorm1027]

These tutorials are Gold but with this one I ran into a couple of issues: 1)- Nintendont didn't save the edited settings as shown in the vide. 2)- I had issues launching the GC games from USBLoaderGX even tho I closely followed the instructions step by step (spoiler: it was because of that). So, the fixes that worked for me: 1)- if Nintendont doesnt save the setting once you edit them in the menu --> After changing the settings do not exit Nintendont! You must select a GC game without exiting Nintendont (so from it's menu), open it and start playing. Play a few minutes of it and then you can exit. If you go and check on the settings, they should not have reverted back to default. If they are back to default, just repeat the process, maybe increase the playtime. After a while it should save the new settings. If you just follow the video (12:01) the edited settings will revert back as soon as you exit Nintendont, apparently it's an issue (or feature?) that goes back a long time. 2)- if UsbloaderGX crashed after loading GC game from Nintendont --> go back into in "Loader Setting" (in the "Gamecube setting" section) and set the "Progressive Patch" to OFF, not ON (14:46). At least this is what solved it for me, if you are having a similar issue give it a try.

[@metalstorm1027]

​​@@lorenzor7993 Sorry to hear about that, I can try but I'll need more info, without a detailed account of your exact situation I'm even more in the dark than you are. ▪︎ Did you follow step by step this guide withoud deviating from it (I need to know if we are on the same page) ? ▪︎ Have you tried running a bunch of different GC games from USBLoader or just one? It's a big maybe but there's a slim chance that one specific game is corrupted. If, instead, you tried with multiple GC games and all crashed, we can cross out that possibility. ▪︎ Do the GC games work if you run them from Nintendont ? Access Nintendont and try to play the games from there, no USBLoader involved. if they play fine that means that the issue is between USBloaderGX and Nintendont (best case scenario). Otherwise, if the games crash / won't start even when launched just from Nintendont, well that could be caused by a number of things.

[@lorenzor7993]

I did everything you said, but it still does not work. All my settings with the video are the same. I can play and safe GC games from Nintendont. I have tried multiple GC games through USB Loader and they don’t work. The problem has to be with USB Loaders. Do you think I should put Mem Emulation to “on” instead of “individual”?

Now when I start up the games through USB loader, it first pop up the Nintendont screen after that the screen goes pitch black, but when I start up directly throug Nintendont, zero problems.

[@metalstorm1027]

​​@@lorenzor7993Yeah, it seems the issue is with USBLoaderGX ▪︎Are you using a USB drive, a USB stick or an SD Card? I've read that, for many people, similar issues were related to the kind of storage unit they were using. Some fixed it by switching from an HDD or SSD to a flash drive, others the exact opposite. I can't verify those claims as I've only ever used an SD card but it's worth keeping in mind that it may have something to do with the support you're using. Back to USBLoaderGX setting... ▪︎You can try going in the USBLoader settings, find the Custom Paths section, scroll down and check that all the relavant paths are correct, SAME exact name as your folders, no Capital letters where there shouldn't be. Set these Paths manually (by clicking on them and navigating your folders), even if they appear correct on the preview: - Homebrew Apps Path > sd:/apps/ - Main GameCibe Path > sd:/games/ - SD GameCube Path > sd:/games/ - Nintendont Loader Path > sd:/apps/Nintendont/ I use an SD Card but if you are using a USB Device I think it will be mostly the same, probably instead of the prefix "sd:" there will be a "usb:" or something similar. You can also try to: ▪︎ Turn off nintendont auto boot in USBloader gx settings. ▪︎ Change "Video Mode" in USBloader gx settings, try to select the other 2 options (force NTSC or force PAL) ▪︎ Reinstall the cIOS (but if you followed BytesNBits tutorials this should not be the issue).

Did you follow through the USBLoader setup? If Nintendont is working USBLoader should be able to start games. Are the games showing up in USBLoader? If not make sure they are turned on the the USBLoader settings.

@@BytesNBits they are showing up and I followed the steps but it just doesn't load

[@Jmarleyxxx]

@@BytesNBits I was also thinking it might be something to do with the paths but I'm not to sure and don't want to mess anything up

[@Jmarleyxxx]

@@BytesNBits can you help?

[@Jmarleyxxx]

​@@BytesNBitshave you figured it out

[@odaddy47]

Do Mame for WIi please😇🙏🙏🙏

[@BytesNBits]

I'll have a look at it. There will be a video on general emulation next week but that will use the SNES as the example.

[@DanielSquidington]

I dont WANT to run backups of my childhood game discs... But I dont seen to have the discs anymore... Got a few of the boxes though, Manual included.

[@BytesNBits]

There are copies of other people's game backups out there if you haven't got access to your own backup files.

[@DanielSquidington]

@@BytesNBits i am aware, I would be nice if I didn't have to either stoop to that, or pay the currently ridiculous prices..

I’m at loading kernel 58 can you please help me

[@BytesNBits]

Have you installed the cIOS mods

@@BytesNBits i love you, i would kiss you but im not that kind of guy and i bet you aren’t either lmao

[@BellaRae-bl3cv]

the screen turn black

[@BytesNBits]

Try making sure you've installed the apps from the initial setup video - cIOS etc. You might have to lay with the Wii screen setup. I run mine at 480p over the HDMI converter.

[@RETROGAME-FIX]

Yup mine too turns black and then says no signal if i load from the usbloadergx. But if i load from nintendont it works fine. I wanted the main dashboard launch.

[@mr.spooks424]

@@RETROGAME-FIX hey didja ever figure out this problem? I have the same issue :/

[@RETROGAME-FIX]

@@mr.spooks424 yes. I did find the problem. As my console is european PAL. So i downloaded the European Games and it worked fine. Takes a lil time to load. Dont know if this was the actual problem. Although other region games also work but not from the Wii dashboard. But from the nintendont app.

[@dashyradent651]

why is mines in Spanish ?

[@BytesNBits]

There's probably a settings somewhere to switch language. Or just try re installing the app.

[@Yolobro89]

Did you figure it out? I don’t know how but mine was working last night perfectly and now it’s in spainish and stuck in it

[@rhindlethered]

It allows you to play "backup files of your own games". Right. That's what people are doing. Not downloading them from the Internet. They've backed them all up themselves from their own personal collections for their own personal use.

[@clxxxvii.]

hey man some people do ok. just not very many

[@BytesNBits]

The reason we all explain the legal route is that KZbin gets angry if we encourage people to download copyrighted software. When they get angry they ban your channel. I myself got an official warning for just showing people where to get the software, so it is a real threat.

[@sloppystyle]

why are you so pressed? Nintendo is the most anti-consumer corporation on the planet and people hardly sell these old consoles and games at a reasonable price. so yeah i think ill go with piracy!!

[@christopherandara2991]

It's the only way to play these games without paying scalpers exhorbitant amounts of money

[@altonb.1396]

And where to do u expect to get these 20 year old games legally from Nintendo pal?😂 Cuz they sure don't sell melee anymore and ppl don't wanna buy $70 used games from a scalper.

Just a bit of Sega banter :)
