This may be a stupid question, but is there a way to merge the individual save memory cards emulated with Nintendont into a multi memory card? Recently, I figured you could get the GC BIOS and get full nostalgia mode on. Because I'm really into the nostalgia, I then figured to use a multi memory card, specially for when I get around to MGS, for the Psycho fight. I don't want to lose the save data I already have by themselves, but can't figure a way to "combine" the individual save files.

Any help?


This is a re-post from a thread I made on the Wii Hacking forum with no replies.
One way is to use the computer program Dolphin which is GameCube/Wii emulator and you can load emulated memory cards and move saves around. Keep in mind that Nintendont has memory issues with emulated memory cards higher than 1019 Block due to the limited amount of RAM available.

Currently you can't use Slot B due to memory limitations.

So, I have a suggestion and a problem.

In reverse order.

I am playing the wind waker randomized game and I booted up the game to find that the save was corrupted, I have no idea if its an issue with the nintendon't or the randomizer itself (I posted the issue on the WW rando discord, as it happens I am not the only one who has issue with the game) so I am leaving this here in hopes of someone who has played the rando can point me if its me or whatever.

The suggestion I have is for nintendon't as a whole... would it be possible to have individualized game settings? So that I can say play LOZ:TP with Virtual memcard but not Metroid Prime 1. As it is, I have to remember to turn off virtual memcard emulation whenever I don't want to use it. Individualized settings could be a neat addition (assuming it is possible)

My sincere apologies if this has been spoken about previously but i cannot seem to find an answer!

Is it at all possible to have the gamepad as a controller for certain wii games such as NSMBW for instance? I know the process of wii mode and such but my thinking is that if gamecube games are being run in wii mode and we have controller support there, why not for a wii iso?

It has always annoyed me that the big N didn't implement that from the start and i am currently blown away by the capabilities of Nintendont and the injects i can play now.... So a big many thanks for that!

Again, sorry if someone is sick of explaining this elsewhere!

Hello guys,
I have two soft moded nintendo Wii, I have tried to use Nintendont for weeks but I can't figure out what is not working.
I have got the last version of Nintendont, I have tried on USB keys (Sandisk Cruze, Pny, Samsung, Toshiba), on differents SD (Sandisk 8, 16, 32gb, samsung 16,32gb all class 10).
I can launch Nintendont, I haven't turn any options in nintendont, it's by default.
Whatever I do, after I click on a game, it starts and Freeze at the first image, Burnout freeze on the loading, Lord of the rings freeze on the loading circle, Mario Kart DD freeze as soon as loaded, Zelda freeze too, I have tried about 15 20 differents game on all differents devices, I have formated all the devices on FAT 32 32kb, it is always the same problem.
I have tried to use an older version, It is the same, freeze when the game start.
I have watched a lot of youtube video, read a lot of tutorials, my last solution was to post on this forum.
Hopefully somebody will read this post and help me to find a solution.

Regards, Vivfou

Don't use flash drives!!! This is most likely your main issue.

Use a real external hard drive that has it's own power supply or a Y-Cable to make sure it's getting enough power.

Thanks for your answer.
I have tried to load up game from sd cards too and I have got the same issue, I have tried once from a Samsung s2 1tb hard drive and it was the same problem, I will try to get my hand on a real hard drive with enough power.

Edit: I have just ordered a y cable for my hard drive so I can see if it is a problem of power

I have tried with sd cards and the on the right port. I have deleted everything and left only the last version of nintendont, but I have got the same problem still.

Edit: I have plugged my External Hard Drive and launched Need for speed most wanted, It started and asked me what frequency I wanted I could select 50 or 60hz what ever I chose the game frozze straight after.

how come you have the latest HBC but runs on ios61?
Re-run hackmii installer so that HBC runs on ios58

PS. Nintnedont doesn't use any cios.
He has really strange settings the entire constellation is pretty uncommon, he should reinstall all (C)IOS …

Actually, I don't see anything wrong with his syscheck log apart from HBC running on ios61
Cios 249~251 are fine. Cios 202~236 may not be useful these days but won't affect anything. Don't fix what is not broken at least not for the wrong reason.

If he doesn't has any problem with Wii games loading he shouldn't touch his cios, at least not in the hope of fixing Nintendont problems.

Hey Guys,
New to Nintendont,
Have a quick question;

I currently am wanting to play Legend of Zelda.
Game plays fine but the character ( Link ) is very grainy.
I have it set to force 16:9 and force progressive scan.
I have my wii u hooked up to my tv which is a 55".
the rest of the game looks pretty good just the characters are grainy?
Any input on this? is there a way to fix this or is it because im playing on a bigger tv?
I have homebrew set up on the vwii, and i play nintendont thru the vwii
Thanks in advance!
