I hacked my wii over 5 years ago but haven't been using it much until now. I think the USB stick I used for games was formatted to a specific file type, do I need to reformat it to copy games to it via wii backup manager? Is there a way to just copy/paste games to usb? And I wanted to use my ps4 controllers through USB on USB loader GX, to play classic the retro games I have installed by WAD, but also wii games where there aren't motion controls involved?

Also any general advice about things that have changed/improved? Should I install nintendont, or other useful stuff?

Also any way to play with DS4, and should I install nintendont?

Yes, you should install Nintendont and enjoy all NGC games.

If you plan to use Nintendont with a PS4 Controller it will work "as is", but take note that you must connect it before launching Nintendont.

Oh is Nintendont only for gamecube games? I'm not planning on playing any for a while, what about wii and vritual console retro games with DS4 or DS3?

Use Wii Backup Manager to put games on
Oh so it's still not copy paste? Cool it's still an improvement.

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    cuz I didnt like fallout 1 that much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
