I edited my post to be less spammy. Sorry about that. I can't play Bomberman games on it so it's not worth it in my opinion.
you can perfectly play all 3 bomberman games on wiiu n64 inject they work perfectly :P i made some custom injects and installed them on my wiiu like normal VC games :P

Just out of curiosity is there any "faq" page for the wiiu retroarch stuff? For example performance of cores, help setting up, etc. I don't check the forums super frequently, so it's really difficult to navigate through 10s of pages at a time looking for posts that are relevant.

Is there a way to make a installable channel with the rpx files?
Yeah just download and install this file with Wupinstaller y mod:

Until I make an "official" version that will maybe make sure your cores are up to date, I made a RetroArch Channel you can download here - http://www.mediafire.com/file/h8bso6s87u1ls38/RetroArch_Launcher.7z

It works with the new system, so you must have cores in the sd:/retroarch/cores folder and the info files in the sd:/retroarch/cores/info folder.

Also, if you installed the Libretro SNES9x Channel I made, you must delete that first, since this uses the same Title ID.

I updated to 1.5.0 latest nightly, deleted the configuration.txt I had before hand but after booting it I get stuck in the main menu and it accepts no inputs neither from my Gamepad nor the Pro Controller. What gives?

Have you tried 1.5.0 official instead, and not a nightly build?

Just tried it and same thing. Actually I updated to 1.5.0 from 1.4.0 because I had the same issue of no controller responding. It was working before but hadn't picked it up since February. For display, I am using just the Gamepad, but it probably mirrors the TV right? Considering the menu is there.

No luck with either the Gamepad or the Pro Controller in the stable buid and I deleted everything before copying to the SD, so no configuration.txt

Very strange, I'm on 1.4.1 and it works flawlessly. What method are you using to load? I recommend using either Haxchi/CHCB or the HBL as a channel to load.

hey folks, I want to use 4 wiimotes with the snes games. Is it possible?
I ask that because I paired one wiimote and it worked with Bomberman.
But when I try to use the others wiimotes it does not work....
Any tips about what I am doing wrong?

I got Haxchi + HBL

now that I'm looking at things, there's a folder on the root of the SD called "controllers" and has a bunch of configuration files. Example "0F0D_0011".

Not sure where that folder came from..
I'm reformatting the SD card and see if that helps.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.
