Is there a decent PS1 emulator to play FF7 on wii?

[pleasehelpme2]

I want to test FF7 on my goldstar set and if there's an emulator for ps1 games for the wii, it would be the most convenient way to test it out for me. Out of all the emulators currently around which one has the highest compatibility with FF7?

Most likely Wiisxrx 4.0 preview maybe your best chance

Most likely, it's either WiiSXRX 4.0 or WiiStation.

U better use WiiStation

Why Wii Station? There both about on par as each other since Wiistation latest update

Because WiiStation is more updated.
Also, WiiSXRX Beta 4.0 is just a preview and not a final version.

I checked the compatibility list and it says it works, so I'll try it out later. One thing though, how do I link discs together? You know, when it says put in disc 2, how does that work? Because this is an emulator and not a real console I can't put in the disc. Does it tell disc 1 that disc 2 is in if I have both of them on my sd card?

You can have the ISOs of all the discs of FF7 on your SD card and when the game asks for change (swap) disc, there's an option on WiiStation for swap CD (with the ISO of the Disc 2).
When the game asks for swap disc, return to the menu, click in "Current ISO", select "Swap CD", select the ISO of the disc you want to use, and then return to the game with "Resume Game".

Use the latest here, for perfect speed and no issues. You can even grab the refreshed build, which will keep being updated periodically as usual, "Preview" is just a name while it gets a release on Github. I am currenyl going through Final Fantasy VII again collecting all the stuff.

So I should use WiiSXRX then?

Whatever emulator you fancy. Up to you bud as to what features you want out of which emulator.

I'll just use whichever is more user friendly I think. I'm assuming it's Wiistation just by the name.

Actually, you can install the two apps on your SD card or USB device (in the "apps" folder)
They share the same folder "wiisxrx" at the root of your device (containing the bios files, isos, saves, etc), so it's easy to switch between the two for testing purposes, as they load things from the same location.

Wiistation, actually previously named "WiiSXRX_2022", uses the same folder as the parent fork, WiiSXRX.

Cool. Thanks for the help fellas. I think I'll use Wiistation though, with no offense meant to you , Mr.Niuus.

LOL, non taken, we don't get paid by usage quota. Using Wiistation is still using WiiSXRX, anyway.

Hello again, I tried loading up FF7 disc 1 on wiistation and all it shows is a black screen. Am I doing something wrong, or does it just take a long time to load from SD card?

BIOS

BIOS

OH, ok thank you! From the readme file I thought BIOS was optional but I guess it's not... I assume we are not allowed to share BIOS on here yes?
