This tool allows you to inject TurboGrafx-16 (TG-16) / PC Engine (PCE) TurboChip / HuCARD (cartidge) game backups in *.pce and also PCE SuperGrafx game backups in *.sgx to official "new" Wii Virtual Console WADs of TG-16 / PCE HuCARD / PCE SuperGrafx HuCARD games which ROM file uses LZ77 of multiple types (LZSS, GBA, 0x10, 0x11 and original ROM compression), used on most new Wii VC WADs. I made this tool because I saw newer emulators of Wii VC of TG-16 / PCE sometimes have better emulation than old ones that didn't use any kind of compression.

Special thanks to @stev418, @lolsjoel and also to @0RANGECHiCKEN and @G0dLiKe (for the TG-16 injection on new Wii VC WADs info), Andre Perrot (for the gbalzss tool), fxxkmii and alpha-0 (@alpha0000) (for the wwcxtool LZ compression tools), @icefireicefire (for the u8it tool from WADder), Superken7 (for FreeTheWads tool), @torito21 and BFGR (for their WAD tools), @Zorg1996 (for the big Wii VC injection support to me) for the help and also for pushing me to make this tool. :)
