Thread 11917958

I want to make this into a super awesome retro machine. The tablet works so I can take it anywhere in the house and I'm guessing within 50 feet of it.

Are the Wii U emulators better than the Wii versions? I'm hoping to at least play N64 and PS1 on it. Is there a good Saturn emulator? Spoonfeed a tard.

>>11917958 (OP)
It's shit and you aren't going to be playing anything like N64 or Saturn. Also the Virtual Console games look like shit. Unlike the Wii, Wii U can't do 240p.

>>11917958 (OP)
i would gladly spoonfeed as the wii u doesn't get enough love.
but, sadly, it's not retro. better go here.

>>11917963
I'm connecting this to a CRT. I don't actually care about 240p.

N64 games work well enough on the Wii, why not the Wii U?

>>11917969
240p is the native resolution for most retro consoles and looks way better than 480i on a CRT. A regular Wii would've been a better option for you.

>>11917973
Nigger I don't care and nobody cared until LCDs became mainstream.

>>11917969
>I'm connecting this to a CRT. I don't actually care about 240p.
Then you might as well hook it to a modern screen. The Wii U is an HD system. Also this >>11917973

>N64 games work well enough on the Wii, why not the Wii U?
LMAO no they fucking don't. VC emulation of N64 games is mediocre at best, and looks even worse on Wii U with how washed out the games are. Look it up yourself.
>>11917976
Then nigger kill yourself because the Wii U sucks nigger dick for retro games.

Uh... Not really.

>>11917993
I was specifically asking about emulation but if you want to be a little turd about it go ahead. Wii U uses the same A/V cables the Wii does.

The officially released N64 VC games on Wii are emulated pretty well, not my fault you're trying to inject Donkey Kong 64 into Sin and Punishment. There's also Wii64, Not64, those do a decent enough job with most games. Which you would know if you played the base Wii.

>>11918017
I find it weird there's no mention of one of the six gorillon forks of WiiSX there, someone ported it to the Wii U. My experience with PS1 on Wii is very hit or miss, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, but when it works it works pretty well.

>>11917958 (OP)
well, i have never tried it myself, but there is retroarch on wii u too.
dunno if it's good or bad, tho. but it should give you an idea of its capabilities as an emulation system.

>>11918056
>Wii U uses the same A/V cables the Wii does.
And lacks the 240p output needed for retro games, niggerbrain.
>The officially released N64 VC games on Wii are emulated pretty well
Nope
>There's also Wii64, Not64, those do a decent enough job with most games
Also no. You would know this if you compare to original hardware or in something like Mupen that rapes Nintendo's emulators.

It's got decent retroarch

Best is just to play WiiU games, they have some really good ones locked to that system. You can also do DS games. Another option is to try retro games but change the dpad to motion controls for some novelty. You can also do rhythm arcade games with the touchscreen, or do lightgun shooters with either motion control or touch controls for something different.

I hear you can use Wii U mode clock speeds now with Wii software. Maybe that's not true. But it would be interesting to see that with some of the Wii's various emulators

>>11918101
OK you do know we're talking about a WIi (U) and not a PC here? And yeah, the VC games on Wii are emulated pretty well and custom for the games that were released.

I also don't give a crap about 240p and neither did anyone until LCDs became mainstream, zoomer.

If I wanted to buy an N64 I would have bought a fucking N64.

>>11917958 (OP)
>Are the Wii U emulators better than the Wii versions? I'm hoping to at least play N64 and PS1 on it
I've been playing PS1 on Wii, and I got the impression that Wii U might have better performance.. if it ever matters.. that's all I can say. Load it up and try for yourself, I'm sure you'll have a good time.

Check out Wiistation's compatibility list, to see which games are proven to work.

Best way to play The Wonderful 101 and OG Yakuza 1&2

You'll get banned if post a thread about PS3 9bc PS2 & PSX] but is all good if Wii U (not a 2006 console but a 2012) is discussed.

This board should be called /NG/ - Nintendo games.

>>11918223
>'ve been playing PS1 on Wii,
who? why the fuck do that when PS1 are so cheap and most of the games are as well? Why the fuck would you fuck around with a wii insasnity

Let me just mod an Amiga to run Atari ST games.
Like what?

>>11918237
>This board should be called /NG/ - Nintendo games.
Fair its a cancerous part of this board, that should realy be serperated off into a pokemon and nintendo board so there is a real retro games space for aracde and 8 and 16 vit computers, Aari, Sega, Xbox and Playsation. I don;t uderstand why tendies insist on themselves if they don't want anything to do with anything but nintendo. Just fuck off into your safe space board where you can all give a shit about toss like zelda and mario and the wii and stop trying to censor the people liking other things who are actually into retro games and system like utter cunts. There are people I know who restore arcade machines and write 8 bit games that won;t post on this board because its just seen as some sort of nintendo slop goon show.

>>11918248
Because now I have 90% of retro games I want inside one console.

I have a ps1 (and ps2) in storage.

>>11918237
>This board should be called /NG/ - Nintendo games.
The unfortunate truth is that this entire site is crawling with Nintendo fanboys. There's no getting away from it.

>>11918259
>show up
>refuse to talk about games you like
>get mad that people are talking about Zelda (in a thread you probably started as bait)
You do this to yourself.
You could very well ask me about Another World or Worms.

>>11918270
Its basically a troll board for them. Its fun to see how little they know about actual retro systems lieke Amiga, Atari, Commodore, Sinclair, TRS80, arcade cabs etc. Just endless word salad shit about Zelda and lumps of crap like the N64. I assume Nindendo pays someone for this.

>>11918282
>dude, why don't you care about my computers with a million eurojank games on them?
Because they weren't as good.

>>11918278
Don't lecture me. If you are responsible for the state of this board based on your obsession with a brand that was frankly marginal for most people who were around writing and creating the games and systems now called retro until the switch you should be fucking ashamed of yourself

>>11918290
I'm obsessed with games in general. it just happens Nintendo systems have a lot of good ones, and the ZX Spectrum doesn't.
I mean, if anything, I like Sega more. Or Capcom/Konami etc.

>>11918289
Now they were far better and the fact that you try and turn what you have to say into some trite xenophobic vomit says more about you than me, the designers and creators of machines like the amiga and atari were Americans primarily as were systems like theTRS 80 and many arcade cabs. The fact is you know fuck all because you wree not even alive at the time. or if you were you were locked in a basement with a crappy nes and no awareness of anything else. Tell me how you wrote games on your NES? O that's right you could not manage anything with a keyboard because you're a a fucking simpleton.

>>11918296
cry

>>11918294
You know fuck all about the spectrum or anything else though and that's the problem. Dead board and don't pretend its for retro james where its just means shit from japan but particularly muh precious nindendo.

>>11918301
Enjoy your dead board and your nintendo spam. I shit on you and I wrote portions of the games you fetishize. Choke on them.

>>11918302
Tell me one Spectrum game that I'm going to look at and think "I want to play this right now", and not just "that's kind of a cute, shitty pocket calculator looking version of some better game from the 80's".

>>11918308
I'm not here to teach you you sad little faggot all you are saying is you know nothing and are proud of being a worthless little trolling prick. We already know that about this cancer board nintendo vomiters. I find it interesting you seem particular obsesed with attacking the spectrum for some reason when I listed a bunch of machines. Tell me how many of the original designers of ANY of these systems have you worked with? I know the answer already none because aside from being a boring little troll on here you have zero presence in the history of video games. You know what? The communities around stuff like the spectum, amiga, arcade cabs etc etc are a thousand fold ahead of you sad nintendo reatards, they are out there making stuff like the spectrum next while you pre order your switch 2 and jack off to mario kart 14.

Cunt. And that's the last reply or post you get from me on this shitty failed board. When this place actually has a reputation for being the worst retro place on the internets you've really won the big fail already. Muh fucking nintendo. Shower of lying censorinng detestable worthless cunts.

If you even had any balls you'd make a nintendo and pokemon board but you know you'd just have to sit there replying to yourself and your discord troons

>>11917969
>I'm connecting this to a CRT. I don't actually care about 240p.

>bro is actually this mad that people like Super Metroid, Sonic the Hedgehog and Resident Evil more than Chubby Gristle and James Pond
okay.

>>11918319
Bad day at school?

>>11918325
You can play these games with your old laptop or phone too, why waste money on something that can't even emulate N64?

>>11918328
What, that's what you're upset about? People emulating on a console that hooks up neatly to a TV, instead of a laptop?

>>11918321
It's best not to think too deeply about the retarded shit people say on this board.

>>11918328
Wii U can emulate N64 and so can the baseline Wii. Why do you lie?

>>11918319
anon take you meds first thing in the morning before you post and chill the fuck out.

the spectrum WAS shit, ive owned one for over 30yrs and used it to play horace goes skiing, chequered flag and jetpack a handful of times, not much else worthy of note.

also AMSTRAD is king which you failed to mention, shows how much you know.

>>11918237
But there's a PS3 thread up
>not a 2006 console
All that Chinese garbage in those handheld threads isn't from 2006 eother.

>>11918486

samefag made both these threads.

go to gbatemp dummy. quit shitting up our board.

>Wii U can't do 240p.
Who the fuck cares when you will be playing it on the tablet and it has a 480p screen.

>>11918707
>I need a Wii U to hook it to my CRT but I'm going to play it on an old small garbage TFT

Wii U is not even 7th but 8th gen lmao.

>>11917958 (OP)
Unless there have been leaps and bounds since arpubd the time switch came out emulators on WiiU are limited and shit. Your best options are virtual console injection or running it in vWii mode where you'll have the same emulators and performance as the original Wii.

bump

>>11918797
WHY

>>11918719
It's 7.5 gen

There's nothing wrong with discussing how to set up a newer device to run retro games.
I play almost exclusively PS1/SNES/N64, and I play them on a new PC on a GPU that came out this year. I even still physically have those systems from childhood. I suspect most of us do our retro on modern devices.

>>11918124
God you're stupid. Nigger you bought a WiiU without knowing it's shit for emulation. Admit you lost and move on. Fuckin balding faggot

>>11918952
So if it works like a Wii I can still ... run emulators on it. Which is exactly what I wanted.

>>11917969
based 480i chad

>>11918963
I've emulated PS1, GBA, some SNES games, and of course virtual console games on a Wii. Works well. Wii U can do Nintendo DS too, I think.

>>11918259
What like 2 people u know won’t post on a basket weaving forum because they might see people talking about Nintendo. Jesus Christ, it’s good they don’t show up then if they are that sensitive they would get run off this board for something else anyway then. That was just… dumb

>>11918282
Yea man, are these paid Nintendo shills in the room w you right now?

>>11917958 (OP)
Where did you grab one for fifty? I’d love to fuck around w modding one of these and playing some retro on it. The Wii is super easy to mod and it was fun. Wouldn’t mind doing the same w a Wii U just cause but for a system that sold like shit I can only find them for 100. Was hoping it would drop in price like the Wii where u can find one for like 20 bucks.

>>11918708
exactly. the retro way to use a wii u.
if you play your retro games on modern lcd or oled, you are just a poser.
and if you play on crt you are based. but that doesn't mean that using tft lcd is cringe.

>>11917958 (OP)
the wii u has worse homebrew scene that the wii.
ps1 emulation is hit or miss.
n64 vc emulation it's okay

>>11917958 (OP)
Since this board has gone to shit for the past few years and pretty much no one is offering you decent help:

Most retro systems you'd probably want to play work fine with RetroArch. Things only get somewhat tricky with PS1 and N64.

For PS1, you can either use the PCSX-ReARMed core within RetroArch for WiiU, or WiiSX/WiiStation with native WiiU overclocking if needed. Overall though PCSX-ReARMed should suffice for most games.

For N64, there's no native WiiU option that I know of, unless there's been some recent development with regards to that. You can either use the Wii emulators Wii64/Not64 (with WiiU overclocking for better performance) or inject games into official Virtual Console releases. Some games work better on Not64, while others better in Wii64 (Rice). The "washed"/black filter used on the WiiU's Virtual Console has be removed through homebrew means. Basically look up some compatibility lists and guides on the internet.

Lastly, WiiU is not going to work well on a CRT.

>>11919671
Why wouldn't it "work well"? I've connected a bunch of NOT RETRO shit to a CRT like a PS3, 360 to mine and they've worked well enough.

I'm glad to know that Wii U OCing exists, I knew it existed via Nintendont for GC games, never really messed around with those options.

I think the washed/black filter was done because things would not look so great on a LCD with it off. I'll look into how to eliminate that. Thank you for an actual answer.

>>11919442
Nintendo released some N64 games on VC for the Wii U that they didn't for the Wii, I don't know if it actually takes advantage of the processing power or if it was just "we can release it now to make more money." I have controller adapteres for a Wiimote that can adapt PS1 and N64 controllers. Too bad there's no physical controller ports on the thing, I always preferred using a PS1 adapter via the GC ports for emulation on Wii.

>>11919671
>inject games into official Virtual Console releases
I just found out some dude uploaded injections, I haven't yet tried but I hope the WADS for Conker and Yoshi's Island work.
