ive never understood getting literally every single game 😂 like great i get to scroll for a full minute on my way to the 5 games i play

[@squidwardtentacles2736]

I've tried to be intentional about only downloading games that I'm likely to try or play. Sometimes I'll just jump from one game to another, play it for 5 minutes and if I don't like it I delete..has saved me lotta space.

[@scorpiomelancholia1559]

Only reason I'd do it cause id have a seemingly endless choice of games to play when I'm bored Why limit yourself to ten or twelve when you can explore the entire library Tho I'd have to remove the ones I would never play (mostly boardgames etc

Im so happy i kept my wii and fixed it after itstopped working for ywars.

[@sirdouglasberg]

To play light gun games you just have to change the aspect ratio to 4x3 and move the sensor bar as close to the screen as possible. Sega's light gun games allow for calibration and is accurate enough that they provide an option to turn off the crosshair so you you can play like a real light gun game. The best remote for this is the Nyko Wand + if you can find one. By far the most accurate. Seems to have been built for this purpose. 2nd best is Wii Motion plus. Although the extra motion controls have nothing to do with the better accuracy. They just happen to be better in that aspect as well.

[@imaginitivity7853]

The reason for the weird Y cable is to give enough power to the hard drive. It might be that with an additional power supply the drive would load up quicker on the Wii. IE it is underpowered on the Wii, although it does work.

[@user-se1ro4sy4z]

I have a thing for small consoles (thats why X series S, ps2 slim and og wii my all time trio) and the fact that wii is 4-5 time cheaper than Wiiu made my choice quite easy, as i see it mostly hacked WIIU is just all the wii + wiiu library + nds VC/emulation + slightly better n64 emulation + variable homebrew + wiiu tablet gaming within your apartments/house. It seems to me that if you already have a wii + switch (and especially +PC) the real PRACTICAL reason of having wiiu is that if you want to play all these ported on switch releases the way it was originally intended to be played(mario 3d land, mario kart 8, Fatal Frame Maiden of Black Water etc)+ interesting ideas within multiplatform titles mostly made by ubisoft(zombiU, rayman legends, watch dogs 1, splinter cell blacklist). No guarantees yet but i still believe that wind waker/twilight princess hd eventually will be ported as well. The only thing i still pity for is an inability to play normally withount OG hardware in kirby rainbow curse(sequel to the ds' canvas curse) with all these drawing platforms things...Yet i cannot deny that once again nintendo is about making state of an art consoles which fates varies from total success like wii/switch to totally not fair failure like with gamecube and especially wiiu. Relly underrated hardware that has a lot of interesting ideas and i understand why people are craving for this unit

the price of the Wii U skyrocketed once they announced that the eshop was going down in March 2023. I bought one a few weeks ago at 140 and that was a steal for how clean it was and compared to the price of other units. It's not uncommon to spend 150-200 for one right now

gamecube games ran in 480 interlaced, normally written as 480i, mode by default but if you had component cables you had the option to play some games in 480 (which is the resolution) progressive, normally written as 480p. progressive mode is better than interlaced and I'm not really able to explain it myself, but it does not necessarily have to do with the refresh rate or htz of the display. it is a more complete and visually appealing display mode

[@dominicyelin]

Interlaced calculates half the lines (240) and fills the rest in later with approximations based on the first set of lines. Progressive scan rendered all 480 lines in full.

[@JuanDiaz-jo1rw]

You could've just bought the Wiis HDMI Cable istead for $20. No converter or dongle is needed. I have my Wii and the Mclassic upscaler paired up. You also don't have to scroll through the games like that. Look at the buttom of your screen. Change the scroll to the cards, then just press down on the D-pad to double or triple the line of games. It cuts the time to scroll for a game.

[@golhan361]

Much faster way to go through library by changing display layout for those that are unfamiliar instead of search option he talks about. Also scroll left to get to the end letters of alphabet quicker lol. Top of the screen shows layout options. List is best and has a scroll tab you can click and drag which will also show game covers

Does Mario kart Wii have the same mods on the Wii U as the Wii? And can you play on same servers and online

[@namesurname4666]

i use ntfs on wii with no problem, to put the games i put them in batch with wii backup manager which will update covers, titles etc.. wii u uses its own filesystem but you can inject wii/gamecube games from an sd card, it's better because you can launch them directly from the wii u menu but more difficult to install, in this mode you can use the gamepad as a controller also not all wii have gamecube ports (the ones made after 2011) i think you can set an exit key for usb loader gx from the settings or just use the wiimote

[@jcng7819]

I just played mario kart 8 with some friends using 3 PS3 controllers connected to the Wii U. No need for an expensive (almost) useless pro controller, and we don't have to play with the uncomfortable wiimote That should answer the question

[@adamreneau9213]

agreed mate, the wii u is great for people who want to use controllers that they already own on the console without needing to buy specific expensive controller adapters that won't always work perfectly because of tiramisu autoboot + bloopair. i dont want to spend $40 on just one wii u pro controller and would rather just use the ps3 and xbox one s controller on the wii u. i have 4 wiimotes 2 nunchucks and 2 classic controllers and the gamepad so ive already got 7 controllers ready to use.

[@imaginitivity7853]

Just in case you're not aware. The Wii 'sensor bar' is a misnomer. The sensor is in the wiimote. To gauge it's position in space it needs to see two IR lights. That's all that is at each end of the 'sensor bar'. For such a large screen, you could set up a couple of IR lights at the edge of the screen. Or even have a couple of candles for romantic Wii tennis!

However I have to say that I don't know if its cause the video is a year old at the time of this post or that you simply haven't spent enough time with the Wii, but honestly I would recommend the Wii over the Wii U all day long if your goal is emulation. My Wii boots directly into USB loader no Wii menu at all. Also when you were showing loading times for the gamecube games on the Wii I don't know what is up with your configuration but mine does not take that long to load. I also have over 600 gamecube games and it comes up in less that 5 seconds for me.

also i get your annoyance with the composite component but i want to let you know that is actually the biggest reason to own a wii over wii u. the wii is capable of playing every old school console in 240p rgb with a 30 dollar cable. to get every system and the rgb mods for those systems would run you literally thousands just in hardware alone. the wiiu cant do 240p so all your snes and sega cd back is just not going to run like it would on the real hardware but the wii is a monster at it. so really if you dont want to run it in native resolution on a crt tv with rgb and want to run it in higher resolution lcd or newer i would definitely take the wii-u though. just want to let you and others know.

Wii u is more powerful, but the Wii is just amazing. Easiest console to mod/hack and is overall a better experience for retro gaming especially on a CRT. The Wii u's VC emulation is spotty and has a ton of input lag while the Wii's VC emulation is far better. Also the fact that the Wii u doesn't have GameCube controller ports in a huge turn off for me. I use GC controllers for RetroArch on the Wii all the time because of how easy it is to setup. Practically plug n play, but the Wii u is a lot harder to setup controllers especially if you don't have the Wii u pro controller things. Also the Wii u gamepad is such a hassle to turn off whenyou don't want it to be the player 1 controller. The Ds support on the Wii u sounds awesome, until you realize that the games are virtually unplayable due to the input delay being horrendous, and sticks out like a sore thumb, even on a CRT tv the delay is still there :(. I always thought the Wii vs Wii u debate was debating which is more important, quality or quantity.

the ds games are not unplayable. all my ds games with the exception of "dsi enhanced" games run fantastically. you can also hack the virtual wii to do all the stuff your physical wii does. but i feel you on the controller opinion for sure!

The Wii U. It’s backwards compatible with the Wii

[@Stuartkid24]

You could mod the Wii inside of the Wii U 😭😭

[@user-Playbird30303]

I would recommend mod a Wii U beacuse its possabile with c2w patcher to overclock vWii for faster Gamecube Games and Emulators( + slightly smooter Wii games)

[@ensembleabusementpark5217]

From my experience, The wii u is better, but the wii is still better than the wii u for 2 reasons. 1. wii will play any ps1 game that you want assuming you are using the correct bios, as opposed to the wiiv inside the wii u thats only able to play select ps1 games. 2. the wii will play wiiflow/wii games much safer than the wii u, because the wii u needs a specific patch and installing the patch is so brick-risky that its practically a coin-flip: If you install the patch, it either installs SUCCESSFULLY or it does not and you now have a bricked/ half-bricked console. In short- the wii is only better because it will play any ps1 game, and also wii games much safer.

The Wii if you are using a crt tv

[@dannyboots]

I really don't like having to use Wii remotes

[@_BELMONT_]

considering the wii has a virtual wii that can be hacked to do all the same things. Wii U wins hands down.

[@imaginitivity7853]

I'm confused as to why an emulator is needed for the GC games. I thought the Wii actually had a GC in hardware

[@capfromTT]

Nintendont isn't really a "emulator" as much as it is a "loader". It runs gamecube games natively.

[@dan01_ca42]

If you have the physical cd's you just pop it in the drive, no emulator.

[@Faisalthefist]

Wii u is the best console tho

[@Vic_VP]

It is the best console to mod over the wii I'm sure I say it in the video 🤣

[@danks192]

since you have every game can you have it in a game pack so we can download them into the hard drive instead of downloading every game one by one.

I offer a service for that, but your lookingnat 4tb for wii, wiiware and gamecube and 2tb for wiiu

Great and informative, but not sure what world you're living in where a WiiU cost less than a Wii... utter horseshit Sir. I have both, but the Wii is a LOT faster booting and navigating between menus.. WiiU is shockingly slow at that basic shit.

[@Vic_VP]

Lol if u check fb marketplace wiiu is cheaper... on my marketplace there's a few at 20$ and several at 60-100 Wii I see for 100-200 now 🤘
