    Hacking VC games don't work when copied to SD card (Some of them)

    Its not even about that. It is about consistency. I can't figure it out, and I am particular about how I would like things to run. I have a 32gb SD card and plenty of space for the entire VC library should I choose to do something insane like that. Why some games work while others don't...

    New Inside Xbox episode teases “exciting news” for Halo: Master Chief Collection

    I enjoy my Xbox. I bought a 360 years ago for a 4 month out of town job. That was 5 years ago, and I have been using it as a monitor riser since. I don't care how good the "MC Collection" is, I won't be buying another overpriced under-powered proprietary microsoft home computer. However, if...

    Hacking VC games don't work when copied to SD card (Some of them)

    I am using Wad Manager 1.7 to install VC N64 games. I have not gotten too methodical about it yet, but I have a few titles that I have installed in the past (Starfox/OgreBattle) that are not on the Wii System memory, but are on the SD card, and run without issue. Tonight I tried to install...

    Windows 10 ARM teased running unofficially on a Nintendo Switch

    I probably would....not to be contrary, but that is cool as hell. Or is it the new hotness?

    Gaming Technical information on Wii Video output

    I am using Official S-video and Component cables, and I am at the point where I believe that the same signal quality is being passed no matter the connection type on 15khz.

    Gaming Technical information on Wii Video output

    I have a few wii systems at the house, and have a few CRT televisions. There is next to no information about what I am looking for on the net, so I felt it appropriate to ask here. I have tested a total of 3 wii systems against 2 15khz component & svideo tvs, and notice a difference that is so...

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    I knew it was something simple because I did have it working at another time. Last night my issue was trying to use an USB Flash drive in fat32, which refused to work. I did find where others had commented that WBFS works best for flash drives...I switched out the USB drive for an external USB...

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    Thanks! I did a quick rundown and re-installed and reset everything as you indicated and it didn't change anything. I had to change a setting on "custom paths" for USBloader to display and run Gamecube games. It was really that simple. Everything is working, and I will be glad to have a...

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    The games run fine when opened directly with Nintendont from the homebrew channel. They also open just fine from USBLoaderGX when put in the "games" folder on the SD card. If I hadn't done this 2-3 years ago and had it working, I would say that what I am trying to do is impossible but I am...

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    Its been a while since I fiddled with a wii, so of course I forget what little I did know. I am having issues. I have 2 wiis, and have never had any issues with using a WBFS formatted external HDD or Flash drive for Wii games, and gamecube titles on the SD drive. However, I am now changing...

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    I figured it out. I am so basic at times I can't do simple things. Click on the game, go to settings, and it is right there. Thanks again software so easy even a dummy can use it! (Oh my I am a dummy lol)

    Hacking USB Loader GX

    I did something I don't quite totally understand. I finally got around to doing a full dump of my NAND to an Emunand. It looks like all the games I had installed traveled over correctly, and I was able to download all the cover images. This much is great. I think that what I am looking for...

    Hacking USB powered HDD 4tb for Wii & GC backups HELP! (Newbie here!)

    I use a program called Wii Backup Manager, and it does format the HDD. I use this program to add/remove games from the hard drive. There is something that can be done from there to add GC games, but I don't use that method I only have a 256gb external, and don't have a plethora of games I...

    Hacking Cannot see/play VC games transferred to SD card

    I got it figured out: I am a doofus. Check the SD channel. Some games didn't like the transfer, and they seem to be Cios 249 installs Once I went with 250, everything seems to work great.

    Hacking Cannot see/play VC games transferred to SD card

    I can install and play every VC title I have tried. However, the Wii system memory gets full pretty quick. I moved a few over to my SD card, and it did create the private folder....but from there I could not play the games, the wii would not see the games UNLESS I looked in the SD card...
