    Rev Chippy - Chip8 Emulator for Wii - Version 1 Released

    This is the first emulator I've made. It's partially ported from Zion's Dreamchip (which is a port of TJA's chip8 emu for PC). Anyway, it has button mapping and speed options. SuperChip is coming soon along with saving options. Some games don't work perfectly for some reason but I hope to have that fixed soon. Enjoy =D

    Roms go in the CHIP8 folder on the root of the sd card.

    UPDATE: superchip should be working, and i think most of the bugs are fixed. i haven't added saving/loading configurations or sound but heres a pre-release of the new version, i'm too tired to finish it today but over the next few days i hope to add the following:
    - save/load configuration
    - save state / load state
    - change colors option
    - sound
    - anything else you wanna suggest

    if anyone finds any bugs, please report them here so i can fix them.

    chip8 games go in /CHIP8 folder, superchip games go in /SCHIP folder (you can put them in the save folder and they should work anyway but this is neater)

    UPDATE - Version 1.0 Released

    The new version of Chippy is ready.

    CHANGELOG:
    -bug fixes
    -SCHIP support
    -save/load state
    -options menu
    -save button mappings
    -sound
    -cant remember the other stuff

    KNOWN ISSUES:
    -randomization sux
    -speed

    put games in CHIP8 or SCHIP folder on the root of the sd card.

    source code will be released shortly.

    please be sure to report any bugs you find.

    Damn, I just came back here to ask if Super Chip worked. Still a good release though. The more emulators the better.

    Is there a Elf to Dol converter out there so we can get Chippy to be seen by the latest HBC? I'd love to try this out!
