I don't think its a matter of bounty system being broken. It's just the WiiU is very niche (especially now that Switch is a thing) :P

I know, the 250 dollars was a waste of everyone's time and money, I commented such on the GitHub page a few minutes ago. What the hell was I thinking? Was I wrong for wanting to see proper dynarec on Wii U? Was I wrong thinking
that somehow, monetary motivation would be a good incentive? Guess not, way to go me. If someone else wants to start a kickstarter fund for Wii U dynarec, be my guest, I quit.

I appreciate you trying to cheer me up, don't get me wrong, I just need time, and I need to get everyone their money back :( What a waste of $250 USD.

Yes, and they are outdated on the WiiSXR side of things, hence the need of a proper vanilla PCSX-R port, surely, it can be done. Once my financial situation improves, I may start a real bounty source, but I
ain't holding my breath.

The current one, that's $250, was a bust and may ask that everyone gets refunded, myself included.
Rather than a refund see if it can be transferred or renamed to PCSX instead of PSX Beetle I would prefer a Retroarch PCSXr core TBH but I think the current PCSX Core has been stripped back IIRC?

Could you post that page again? I can't seem to find it. I don't know how to transfer the money over. LibretroRetroArc would be the one to rename it, AFAIK, I don't think I can relabel it.

Hmmm, I'll see what I can do about trying different shells. GNOME will likely be too heavy right now, as we don't have graphics. XFCE is a bit slow, but works fine. i3 is quite nice and snappy.

@Loller06: yeah, other distros should work fine, provided they're compatible with PowerPC in the first place and don't rely on any specific hardware features.
