that only works on the wii, the wiiu holding the power button does nothing when something freezes in vwii, so any freeze on vwii being it nintendont not64, or any homebrew all you can do is pull the plug.
I had no idea, I never really used my vWii mode on my Wii U other than mess around with it for a few minutes when I first bought it, however my Wii U froze on me several times on Wii U mode, it took me a while to find a good alternate for a y-cable as it's essential for using a hard drive here, I would hold the power button for 5 seconds and it would shut down just fine!

So, I've used Dios Mios for a long time for all my gamecube loading needs. I guess I am ready to take the plunge into Nintendont (if only on a per game basis for audio streaming since crediar hasn't released it for DM, and for triforce games). I will use it with USB loader GX but I haven't updated it for a long time. Can someone (Cyan) point me to a current build of USB Loader GX? Is there anything I should know about using Nintendont that isn't like using DM? I've been out of the scene for a while and was hoping for crediar to release audio streaming for DM but Nintendont seems very advanced.
all games should work perfectly on nintendont besides gtcube which is 1.5 speed.

SD or USB on the same build.

nintendont doesnt need instalation its just a dol and it works like every normal homebrew no need to mess with ios or mios unlike DM.

Perfect MC emulation for all games, audiostreaming works on all games and manny games that we didnt even know used audiostreaming so your better off playing all games in nintendont tbh lol you never know if that game had an audiostreming file or not somewhere lol.

Lots of controller support- every hid controller, wiimote plus nunchuk,wiimote + CC/CCP, wiiu pro plus gc controllers.

works on all wiis and wiiu(Vwii).

So yeah nintendont is the sucessor of DM and its superior on everyway except to play gtcube lol if that game even worked in DM that is :P.

Manny more features but i will let you use the first post of this thread to explore them lol.

i have no issues exiting nintendont when launched from the homebrew channel it always returns to the hb channel, of course ppl that use the nintendont fowarders probably will freeze.


i tested hundreds of games and i never had a single issue exiting them and i probably tested 80% of all ntsc releases on the gc.
No forwarders. Launched straight from HBC.

Dude, what did you do that for? Just hold the power button for about 5 seconds and it shall shut off.
What Pedro said. It doesn't work that way on WiiU apparently...

that only works on the wii, the wiiu holding the power button does nothing when something freezes in vwii, so any freeze on vwii being it nintendont not64, or any homebrew all you can do is pull the plug.
^This^

My case too.
In any loader, it only redirects me to nintendont, to choose the game, again.

Another thing, I tried to install Vbagx and Snesx as a channel, and the installer says that I need Ios58. I already have it installed, I have Pimp my wii and Hackmii, reinstalled HBC and still no luck. From HBC it loads normally, I just can't install them as a channel. Any tip?
Turn on autoboot. Or even better, reset GX to it's default values.

Just go to USBLOADER GXs thread. There's everything you need to know/get

I need some help recovering a corrupted save file. The links the post provided are only for recovering gamecube memory card saves that have been corrupted. I have been using the Memory card emulation on Nintendont and my save file is on my SD card. I think it got corrupted after the game I was playing froze. I was wondering if there might be a way to recover the save file.

so as I already said the other day google code is over:
-this will be the last google code commit, everything else will be on github.com/FIX94/Nintendont, the internal updater will now grab files from there too
-updated download function to allow https downloads
-fixed a small bug in Patch31A0 which might've affected a few games

Can you open the memory card in dolphin memory card manager?

I download the dolpin emulator and opened up the memory card manager but when I tried to open the GZ2E.raw file(The zelda save file) a warning box appears saying " Memory card filesize does not match the header size"

Oh I blame them for the shitty design that is the Wii U, it's no wonder the console sold so badly, the fact I only use my Wii U (hardly) to run Wii U games only, other than that it keeps catching up dust as I enjoy my PS3 or Wii makes me behind on why the console is considered bad, damn it it's almost as bad as the original Xbox 360.

The console sold so badly mostly because people these days are looking for shitty games like those on Xbox or PS3/4.
GTA and all of its clones and Modern Warfare type of shitty FPS games.
I for one LOVE me some side-scrolling (Just look at my nickname) fun. And I'm love with Nintendo's IPs. so yeah, it's was a no brainer which console to choose.

Alright I have to agree with you here, I don't think the console is bad although it does have a lot of bad design decisions, however personally I much rather play Super Mario 3D World, Sonic Lost World, and Bayonetta, over games like GTA V or CoD Modern Warfar, although the PS3 still has a lot of great games to offer that sadly Wii and Wii U lack, especially in the fighting departure like Street Fighter and Dead or Alive, I still don't care for PS4 tbh, every good game on the PS4 is available on the PS3 so I don't see a reason to upgrade.

I almost use my WiiU for Wii games only and nintendont lol.
Funny you said that, I only use my Wii for Gamecube games and for using emulators, I hardly ever play Wii games anymore!

btw where can one get an older build of Nintendont? I don't need to download one atm but I noticed the first page has removed it!
