kickflip720 has released a new PacMan emulator for the Nintendo Wii.

Heres the release info:


Simple pacman emulator supports wiimote, nunchuck and classic controller.
All working but sound is a bit dodgy (any help appreciated).

Tested on a PAL Wii using a 16:9 screen.

Any problems let me know.

Sorry its not MAME, but the best I can do at the moment!

Roms
====
You will need to acquire the Mame romset for this. It is usually called pacman.zip. It should contain the files: pacman.5e, pacman.5f, pacman.6e, pacman.6f, pacman.6h, pacman.6j, 82s123.7f, 82s126.4a.

Create the directory \pacman\roms\ on the front SD Card and insert the files.

Copy the files boot.elf, meta.xml, icon.png into the directory \apps\pacman\.

Has anybody actually got this to run? When I try to launch it from homebrew channel (prefered method as it has the xml/icon etc) it just crashed horrible style. I shall look into this further....

Wraggster - maybe! :)

Works good for me. The only problem is the sound is a little distorted. It boots quickly, plays fine on the wiimote plus you can exit out of the game back to the hbc.

I wonder why its not good for me.. newer homebrew channel needed? different screen res?

Either way I cant compile a working version which is annoying!

Does this just play the original Pacman or ALL the Pacman games?

looks like a dead post but let's see if we can revive it.
this only works on the original pac-man game for now, i just grabbed a copy of this and am going to see if i could modify it to boot us ms. pac-man(and maybe try to give the sound a liitle kick in the pants) .any thoughts anybody??
