Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[Billy Acuña]

Try to scale the original file with waifu2x. Most of the times, it also removes jpeg noise.

Better (?

Better (?

Almost there!

Looks pretty nice still.
Will that be used for stand alone channels on the home menu?

To any emulator that ran atari in those latest updates? I would like to play enduro and river ride

It's an unofficial release http://wiiubru.com/appstore/zips/stella_libretro.zip

I want to talk about that to @brienj and @aliaspider, but definitely will use those for my WiiU Menu (and of course release them if ain't the official ones)

Here we go!!! Every meta textures of my personal favorites cores so far Again. What do you think? Do you want to see the as the official ones? What do you think should change on the desing of a texture(s)? Hope you love them as I loved doing them


BTW, the icons I'll use were borrowed from here:
https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/tree/master/ctr/assets

Tomorrow I'll work on the boot sounds, hope I can help to bring channel builds on 1.5.0

Nice but I would have prefered a PC Engine one rather than turbo grafx as I hate that american name for the pc engine. Turbo Grafx sounds like a hero from.some shitty 80s kids tv show. Here comes Turbo Grafx Man to the Rescue. On a side note america got it so wrong in the 80s and 90s things like megadrive being changed to the god awful genesis the wonderful designed snes being changed to the horrible grey and purple monstrosity and pc engine being changed to turbo grafx lol what was that all about

Looking good, I would get rid off the Wii U logo to keep the image less busy and coherent with the minimalist style =)

yep I totally agree it should just have the core name and not the retroarch wiiu logo.

 

[Goloki]

I'm loving the new all-in-one version. It's working great on my end. Now, if somebody could make a channel so we can skip having to enter the HBL... that would be amazing

You realize the plan now is to have only one channel, right?

Speaking of channels I was thinking you could use this as the sound for the app? what do you think.. just the first 10-15 seconds..

I found this random wav on youtube, 15.wav and 14.wav, I can see RA channel with that boot sound

I'm sure Iv'e heard that first WAV sound in some cheesy 70's slasher flick lol

Of course, I'll work for meta files for the standalone too, my intention is to introduce channels on buildbot.

I'll probably change the mednafen's meta files due copyright issues, those ones are just a preview.

Added on my todo

Wow the first video has a horrendous sound, please don't use that
15.wav is cool though. 14, meh.

I was thunking the exact opposite of that I hated 15.wav but liked 14

How can I setup a game with MSU?
I want to try my ALttP Redux hack in Snes9x but I have no idea how to set it up

 

[Billy Acuña]

Ok guys, this is what my creativity and desing skills gave me for the main app. What do you think? Is it badass? It suck? Please, let me know

I like it!
I would only suggest moving down the "Wii U" logo.
Like, shift the RetroArch text a bit more up, along with the LibRetro one below it, and the Wii U text below the LibRetro text, maybe that might look more appealing.
