Try that :) (may not have the newer fixes...)
thanks @ploggy hopefully it does not have the newer fixes as for some reason I can't get the latest versions to work. anyway I will report back once I am home in 20 mins and can try your one out thanks for the upload. on a side note I would love it if we ever got working commodore 64/amstrad cpc464/Atari St emulators here's hoping that one day we get em. but best of all would be a version of fuse that has a working keyboard because at the moment we can load games but not actually play them due to the onscreen keyboard not working.

You and me both :) WiiU needs some Computer Core love :)

Ok, here's an installable channel for snes9x to test out, this is not an official release, because I am still not happy with it, but it at least works - http://www.mediafire.com/file/g82gg0kdg3edlgd/SNES9X-Libretro.zip

Let me know what you think, and if this will be good enough. Also, if anyone wants to help make splash screens and icon for the system menu, let me know. I'll do more of the cores if people like this.

Thanks so much for this! This is perfect! The second screen for exiting is no problem at all, and your bootlogo and icon are perfect as well in my opinion.

The only thing I noticed is that this channel doesn't work if PadCon is installed to the system, it just stays at a black screen then. I don't know if you could take a look at that?? Would be wonderful to have PadCon working alongside this, so we could turn off the gamepad screen while playing on TV.
Thanks!!

you don't need PadCon just hold down the power off button on the wiiu controller for several seconds and the controller switches off but the wiiu remains switched on. on second thoughts i guess that would be only of use if using another controller lol.

That would work, but as I don't have another controller I'd like to keep using the gamepad as controller, just with the screen off to save battery ;)

I updated the Libretro SNES9x channel. There aren't major changes in this, but the rpx file is about 2MB smaller now and it has a nice new boot sound that I made.

There is a new URL for the new channel, hopefully some people may come up with some new ideas for the splash screen unless you think this is a good template to use for the rest.

You can download it here - http://www.mediafire.com/file/oxa3evq3486vpay/Libretro_SNES9x.7z

Don't forget to delete the old one before you install this so it properly gets updated.

For me the other previous channel works more when it left the emulator it does not enter more when I click on the snes channel. And when I enter the homebrew after breaching the channel snes hangs the wiiu is this normal happen?

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.

    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
