Emu_kidid has posted the first release of the Nintendo 64 emulator for the Gamecube and Nintendo Wii (only will work on Nintendo Wii with older system firmware and using SDLoad or with a Wii Modchip)


This is not even considered a beta, more like a alpha.. we already know the bugs so don't bother saying "hey game X doesn't work", or things like "i got game Y to boot the intro". Please only post back constructive feedback such as "You're doing this wrong with the core" etc.. you can find the full source always at http://code.google.com/p/mupen64gc/ . We don't consider this in any way "playable" so don't cry if a game locks up before even booting. This release is simply to show our progress and to perhaps gain more interest from coders out there who'd like to help, if you'd like to join simply join the project at the URL provided above. This build is based on revision 40 of the code in the SVN. Please read the usage before using it.
