tiicu functions in ghidra.
this is a old version too.
 
I see people saying Windwaker runs well on this. Is that true? How is he pulling that off? Is he just enabling a f load of speed hacks per game? Keep in mind the Nvidia shield, which has the same chip as the V2/OLED, struggles with GCN and especially Wii emulation. That runs at the full clock speeds available to the X1+ and has way better cooling.

Don't expect too much from Wii. The example game mentioned is Rhythm Heaven, which is technically very basic and undemanding. Similar 2D/low demand stuff might work well, anything that uses much of the Wii's actual capability will struggle.
 
do modded isos work (Project M etc etc)?

1. Probably yes and probably not...worth trying
2. It's still early says and list is being compiled, as ever with these, down to user feedback mainly.

My test so far, using iso images

Rayman Wii runs great, Newer runs good in parts and sluggish in others

Ssx tricky and 3 run great, few gfx glitches at start video

TP runs great (only started it and got epona)

MKDD RTGP latest patch runs sluggish but playable (only tested1 track so far)

WW and Better wind waker run much better than expected but as already stated, perfect in some places, slow in others. These also both suffer from the same slows in he same places from what i can tell so probably better off just using the Better mod.

Star Wars Rouge Squadron may load the first splash screen then crashes.

I only play in handheld mode and have Erista... Clocks are holding steady at rates stated, no heat from 2 hours playing ww to the deku tree (thought forest haven would have issues but none so far) battery drains slightly quicker obviously but the advice still stands.... Monitor your own sytems guys.

How well does this run without overclock, I will eventually get this version but do you think as updates come out, over clocking may not be needed. I think in the previous page here I could say I won’t mind the clock speed, especially if that’s the docked numbers for the clock speed for handheld.
 
What's the over under on the safety of running this on Switch Lite? The Lite has way less headroom for overclocking.

Actually this is the best homebrew ever made for switch, really good job!
Besides the Wii and Gamecube loading it's a really good frontend and rom launcher, reminds me heavily in this: https://iisu.network/

edit: Would also be great to launch native Switc htitles and completely replace regular HOS. ;) Just the image scraping is not so great, one by one and after I played a game it lost them. Maybe allow to insert them manually? Screenscraper is also nice for getting images.
