Does not required softmodding vWii at all.Does this require you to softmod the vwii, or can you play it on the WiiU side? I heard conflicting things from a couple people.

Ok. I am getting a crash EVERY TIME I head to the retroarch menu on the wii u. Steps to reproduce
1.) Head to retroarch with Haxchi (I have Kirby DS Painting game)
2.) Load up NXEngine (Sometimes its already loaded)
3.) Press a home button on any controller while Cave Story has loaded
4.) Hold the power button for 3 seconds because it crashes on step 3.
What I think it Is that retroarch has a completely white background for some reason when boot it up. Doesn't change at all. So it could be missing some textures and it just decides to crash. That's all I know. There was a code dump at first but I didn't take a pic and it was saying stuff about some picture files missing. Hope theres a fix!
I don't think there's a standalone MAME emulator for Wii U unless I am mistaken.How is this different for playing arcade games from the MAME emulator posted here?
*Redacted*
It says it's a vwii forwarder, so yeah I guess it's just the Wii MAME emulator. Is Retroarch much better than it, at least for arcade games, like with compatibility?
Thanks, it took me several months to complete.Hi Retroaussie,
I have got your build version 2, it is amazing, great work and effort.
I notice it has FB Neo core but none of the playlists use it but rather use FB Alpha, anyway I can use Neo with this build?
I tried renaming neo to alpha and removing original fba alpha core but it returns to wii u menu. Thanks for any help.
Thanks, it took me several months to complete.
Firstly, why do you want to use FB NEO? FB Alpha 2012 performs very well (inc CPS3 runs smooth) and I did not see any benefit in FBNEO for now.
If you wish to change to FBNEO, you need to do the following;
1) Change the romset to match FBNEO, the romset on the build is for FBA 2012 only.
2) Change every game entry in the FB Alpha Playlist to point to FBNEO core
3) All the classics and collections playlists that use FBA2012 you need to also change every game entry in the Playlist to point to FBNEO core (eg PSIKYO, King of Fighters, Metal Slug Collections), I think from memory about 14 playlists use FBA2012
Very shortly I will be releasing Version 3 and it will include;
Cheers
- 100% Artwork for all 26 Arcade Collections
- Improved Layout and tidy up of playlists
- 3 Hacks Systems will be added, NES, SNES & Mega Drive
- Artwork will be reduced by 70% as we will no longer need seperate artwork folders for the 26 Arcade Playlists, we can point to the 1 artwork folder, this will save 3-4GB and install will much faster with 25,000 less files

Yes MAME Playlist will be in Version 3, I will look into Sega CD.Fantastic work and I’m looking forward to the improvements. Is it possible to add a Sega CD and Mame playlist? There are lots of classics in Mame that are not in any of the available playlists.
I always had that issue trying to use a forwarder so I just use each emulator individually in the homebrew channel.okay im either old or going mad.
i never use my Wii U so i thought let me play with it a bit.
but i put the retroarch folder on the root of my sd card installed retroarch forwarder. but when ever i start it, it just loops and takes me to back to the Wii U menu. i did the media files too.
i have the latest nightly builds. is it the builds or what?
