How to Play GameCube Games on Wii! [Nintendont Guide 2024]

[@0_01-23]

finally, an actual nintendont channel i can use

[@taratara219]

Nice! A Wii Tutorial is also needed after all that time! Always happy to see tutorials by you even though I personally only use my vWii. Many people still have a Wii so Awesome Tutorial like always!

[@Reksir]

Just followed your tutorial on getting usb loader and adding wii games. Worked perfectly then clicked on your channel to find this too! Just what I was gonna add next! Lets goo lol

[@Reksir]

Update, I have gamecube and wii games now. Next I'm gonna do some older nintendo classics like n64, snes and nes 🙏

[@ryanvogel9610]

Nice so these tutorials still all work? Just found my old wii and these tutorials and gonna give it a try and mod my old wii this weekend

i really appreciate this tutorial !! super easy to follow :) subscribed, thanks man!

[@benjaminwheeler326]

I didn't realise you could just save gamecube games onto the console itself, I had to buy a memory card to save games

[@funkyscott47]

hopefully it wasn't too expensive!

I can confirm this also works with the Wii U's "virtual Wii" mode.

It does, however the cios install and channels are different

love to hear that!! Happy gaming :)

[@Gamer-m2x1v]

Hi, I have a question. For the real GameCube Memory card, do I back that up first just in case something goes wrong, or am I able to use it as it is? Also, for me to add cheats to work for physical GC games, do I do it like the digital version, by making two new folders, 1 being codes and 2nd being the game ID, export the codes to gct and put it in the game ID folder and it should work right away? Another thing, since I'm doing everything physical, do I need to install the wads anyway?

[@Mortalmannn]

Awesome video every one of your videos has explained perfectly what to do keep it up.

[@PemimpiX]

Hello FunkyScott, i really wanted to know what is best way to play N64 games on Wii U (like the first Paper Mario in my case), because I know that N64 VC on Wii U has a dark filter and I don’t like it very much (also heard that there is an input lag issue with this VC version but not sure about that). So, with all the possibilities and benefits of a modded Wii U, i’m asking myself (and now you too) what is best way to play Paper Mario 64, is it still the Wii U VC version and I can find a way to remove this dark filter? Is it enough if turn the brightness up to the maximum on my TV? Should I go with the Wii VC that don’t have this dark filter but is maybe in a less good resolution? N64 emulator on Wii U with RetroArch? Another way that I don’t even know about? Thank you, if anyone have an answer for me! ☺️

Are you supposed to rename you gc files to game or game.iso

Great tutorial. currently i get an error in USBLGX where it tells me the loader isn't configured when I've triple checked that it is. the games boot fine from the nintendont channel. With the exception of Sonic Riders tournament edition (rom hack of sorts) but i chalk that one up to being an outlier

[@Rubixar]

im late but go into settings in usb loader gx and make sure its on sd card mode if youre using an sd card

[@K9arcade]

@@Rubixar I'm certain it is because i can load wii games from it but it wont load the GC titles from there. gc titles for me will only load from nintendont. i'll have a look again, thanks

[@JemieEng]

Scott, I have a question What happens If I install an actualization for a game via internet with a hacked Wii U? Can I get banned?

[@zerozoidHD]

From what I'm watching here, I can install nintendont with my sd card, and then select usb in nintendont so I can play gamecube games from my usb, since I only have a 2GB sd card, but my usb drive is way bigger I'll try doing that

[@vipermkwii]

Nice tutorial! There's a way to make the games anamorphic 16:9?

thank you! And there are the options for graphics in the settings, but im not sure if you can get widescreen

Does the Wii Remote work with the GameCube games or do I need a GameCube controller or something like that?

[@funkyscott47]

the best way to play is with classic controller or gcn controller, but you can play with a nunchuk too. I don't believe you can play with a single wiimote

How do you leave the game? For me the homebutton of the Wii mote does not work and I use a PS4 controller to play GameCube games but also the homebutton of the PS4 controller does not work

[@ashtonottenbreit7438]

I followed the tutorial up until you get to the wii itself. Does inserting the SD card with all of those files automatically add those other pages like the loader and homebrew or do I have to do that all in advance? Is there a video tutorial of installing those?

[@ashtonottenbreit7438]

I figured it out! Thank you so much! I''ll give it a few months to see if everything keeps working and I'll be sure to donate!

[@lena8557]

Thank you so much! I got the biggest part of it running. However, when I try to launch a gamecube game within the USB loader GX it says "there is no memory card in slot A/B/C". So its not possible to save the game. However, it works when accessing the game through the homebrew channel. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thx!

Only got one problem, the whole "failed to load IOS58"

[@bewundert]

the nintendont channel wont start in my wii menü?

[@coDDR9]

I'm having problems getting Nintendont and YawmMe show up on the Homebrew channel after downloading them in the computer, like the moment I put the files on my SD card, they don't show up on the Homebrew channel at all and they disappear when I insert my card back in my computer, and I resort to downloading them through the Homebrew browser. The same applies to my GameCube games, and I fear that it's because I accidentally opened the game files in the SD card and it says they're corrupted, and they might end up corrupting not just Nintendont and YawmME, but the rest of SD card that I use to homebrew my Wii.

[@markasscop]

is there a reason you don't recommend the gamecube games be on a usb device?

[@funkyscott47]

mainly because you wont be able to play them from usb loader gx, which isn't a big deal then if you dont plan on doing that

[@markasscop]

@@funkyscott47 I'm a little confused b/c I have been, for several years
