Can anybody post which emulators they've been successful with?

On v3.3 of the Wii thingumajig and so far:

Megadrive - flawless;
MAME - no;
N64 - loads but Goldeneye runs at 1fps;
SNES - crashes with a rainbow screen

I'd love to know which are tried and tested and worth trying!

Also, how do I add an emulator to the Wii Channels (if indeed you can)?

Ok snes runs 100% PERFECT at full 60fps

i got the rainbow screen too but you have to press A to load roms FIRST, anything else will crash it because if no roms are loaded it gets confused and crashes/

NES runs 100% perfect

GBA is kinda lame and has bad fps for now.

isn't the rainbow screen just the default auto loaded rom?

on the wiimote verion i'm using, it autoloads the rainbow screen, which i think is just a color test, i press home+B or something to get to the menu, where i load the rom i want to play..

I've got Snes9x to work pretty much perfect, Vba Wii again pretty much perfect and I've got Wii64 running Banjo Kazooie at about 16 fps.
I can't get Yabuse Wii to work though.

I'm running FCEU (nes), Genesis Plus (genesis), ScummVM (point and click PC games), Snes9XGX (snes), and VBA 172 Wii (gb, gbc, gba) all running great at 100% original speeds and with no control issues.
Wii64 can't load 90%, maybe more like 95%, of ROMs at the moment and seems to only hit a maximum of around 15 fps with huge graphical errors in the ROMs it can run.
Yabause doesn't load ROMs at all for me, nor does any Saturn emulator, so its complete trash so far.

Basically I suggest downloading all the ones I've said work 100%, the other ones are unplayable and just waste SD space the working ones could be using.
