Does this still work for the GC, or just the Wii? I want to know before using a DVD.
You have to get Cube64 if you have a Gamecube, they have 2 separate build for the Wii & GC.

Anyone know how well HM64 runs on this? My sister and bro in law has the Wii at their house, so I won't be able to check until probably Sunday

. That's like really the only game I want to play for the 64, since I'm a fan of the series and everyone keeps saying that it's the best.

Banjo Kazooie works well now, it's 55-60fps. A few gfx glitches, nothing major. I can't remember how it was in beta 1 but I'm pretty sure it didn't have great FPS. The only thing that annoys me is that everything is choppy, almost like it's shaking, and it's not frameskip. I only notice it when I move, it must be some bug.

EDIT: Another thing is that gfx glitches appear whenever it dips below 60fps, so that might be a bug too.

Snowboard Kids (one of my favorite N64 games) looks good but doesn't run full speed. Snowboard Kids 2 does, and works perfectly.

i tested a few games, THPS 1 and 2 have garbled graphics still but can be played, they are a little slow as well. NFL blitz freezes upon entering a game scenario. cruisn usa slow and ugly. shadows of the empire goes in game, but not playable due to graphic errors. mk4 works great, no life bars while playing. mk trilogy is really slow.

so overall its great progress seeing as how goldeneye is running (and quite well for being emulated on the wii). i hope this will achieve status like the emulators for pc, although its not very likely as the hardware is limited. maybe they can do some hack stuff to the emulator to increase speed. ill take full speed with minor graphical glitches any day.

I feel like it's possible, but it's going to take time.
