PS Wiita is a free, community built homebrew application, which is designed to play Wii U games on your PS Vita or PSTV.

* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead Vita memory cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired for playing too much Mario Kart 8. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this homebrew
* before installing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

PS Wiita is based on the documentation of Wii U reverse-engineers. PS Wiita does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Instructions

First time installing homebrew on your device?
Download and install Henkaku
Perform a backup of your Vita memcard (Optional)
Install PS Wiita
Get Loadiine-extracted games
Put them in the "wiitagames" folder on your Vita memcard (this folder will be automatically created the first time you open PS Wiita)

Broken Features / Known Issues
  • The gyroscope doesn't work. This is still being researched. Hopefully I will be able to make it work in a few days.
    • Some games that rely on the gyroscope, may crash when trying to use it. (Splatoon crashes, for example. Play it with a save, where you already turned gyro-controls off.)
  • Audio may behave weirdly in some games. (Audio emulation isn't 100% complete.)
  • The camera has the same problems as the gyroscope. It'll also be fixed in a few days.
  • Games don't have the best performance (obviously). Simpler games (like Super Mario Maker) have around 10-16 fps, and games like Mario Kart 8 or Splatoon can go even as low as 1-2 fps.
Extra features
  • The firmware you want to emulate can be set. Lower firmwares generally have better performance.
  • You can set frame skipping, if you want. (May result in choppy audio.)
  • Set up online play if you have an existing NNID (not possible if you already have a Wii U paired with it).
  • Switch between GamePad and TV feed.

Xenoblade only runs at 5 fps. What a piece of shit emulator.
What did you expect? It's a miracle that it even runs. The Vita is much weaker than the Wii U.
