Running Homebrew and Emulators on the Wii Console Tutorial

**pakkman781** · December 6th, 2006, 00:57

I see home made is an option for the SD memory adapter, and since they seem impossible to find, anyone know where I can find out how to make one of my own? I googled it and got nothing

Not even a pinout...

Hey, I have a few questions.

As it is possible to execute DOL files on the SD card, can it also handle GCM files (e.g. "boot" from the gcm image)? Because, how to play GBA titles with this trick? The only emulator I know generates a GCM file, so what to do with it?...

Also, is it possible to play N64 games ?? If so, how? That would be awesome...

Thanks !

Awsome! Can't wait to try GCLinux!

...then again... can't wait to get a Wii! ^_^

Thank you for showing this to us... it truly is amazing how someone could figure all this out when the console's only been out for a little under a month. Kudos to you!!

a Q for anyone, the genesis emu says "z" to reset emulator, but when i hit it nothing happens?

to nbpdjc - you have to convert your roms to .dol
you cannot leave them zipped or unzip them

I've just made my own (tested it and it works like a charm

). I'll be doing a write-up about how I did it soon (as I couldn't find good info either) you can read it here once I get done with it:

Ok, I've tried the SDload method and have had success.

The problem I have is that I can not use the 'load from SD card' option on various emulators. It says 'unable to open SD card', so I have to inject these emulators first.

Apparantly few SD cards are compatible with the 'load from SD card' option.

Does anyone know which SDcards are campatible with this feature, Brand, Size, and Version?

any pics?
