I love how some clowns here are like "ITS JUST ROMS!111!!".

Did you guys every cross checked with checksum if they are clean roms and not made optimized for the switch by nintendo? aka fixing polys and so on to increase performance?

Did a code review to check if something is different?

No you just talk out of your ass as if you know everything about this.
We know it has 3 Emulators N64,GC and Wii with given Games, not much more.

No need to be rude to people...
What do you want to say about EBOOT.PBP aka the sony psone emulator format (and psp) ? It discarded us to use the builtin emulator in PSP or VITA? I think not.

For now, let's just use Layered FS to importe GCM files, then let's create a IPSwitch patch to change the rom to load on the fly? :/

Actually, more important, what games are running correctly with it?
We have a lot of things to try now lmao.

Of course, it happen the day that I'm not home with Fiber connection, but instead shared weird 250kbps wifi lmao
(also, don't have my USB C cable, nor SD card reader, noice)
I tried, but unless I really missed something it didn't work
contents/010049900F546002/MarioSunshine/Super_Mario_Sunshine_Stardust-trimmed.gcm right?

Tried with Nintendo Puzzle Collection since I had the GCM lying around. It just boots Sunshine.

Is there a romfs folder in the og path? Try looking at the file structure through nxdumptool

What a shame, Nintendo. They are actually roms/isos then I am not buying it at all!!!! I will be fine with those on my emulators instead. Shame on you, Nintendo. What a cheat!!!
Why?. If it were not for these three games we would not know about the official N64 emulators, better optimized GameCube / Wii that could be used to load other ROMS

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Isn't Super Mario All-Stars (25th Anniversary Edition) for the Wii an emulated rom too?
Weren't the remastered games running on a SNES emulator?

Technically speaking, roms can be used for other purposes entirely. The presence of rom files doesn't mean they are being emulated.

What?
If the ROMs are not there, then there's no game at all.
If there's a ROM, it IS emulation.
Just because they add some soft-patches through whatever means doesn't mean that's not being emulated.

For example, you could use a script to extract the graphics/sound and other assets from the rom. Without emulating any of its original executable code.

Except they are actually loading the executable code.
They are calling specifically for the boot.elf file inside the game, so yeah.

And the whole extracting graphics/sound is pointless for Nintendo.
Hackers, homebrew and decomps use that to avoid copyright strikes, but Nintendo owns the assets, they don't need to extract a thing when they can just use the assets themselves without wasting GB of data by having the ISO there just for extraction.

If you want to try, do this:

Know the internal structure of the game by unpacking the NCAs of the game.
Go or create a folder on your MicroSD with the following path:
[Atmosphere]
MicroSD:\atmosphere\contents\010049900F546003

Inside the folder create a folder called "flags" and inside create an empty file with the following name and extension: "boot2.flag"
They go back where they created the folder and create another with the name "romfs", inside the content they want to replace the game will go, either the ROMS and other files modified to detect said ROMs.

Remember that the files you put there have to match the path inside the NCA files that contains the "romfs"

"010049900F546003 @ is the ID of the leaked game, it can change according to the NSP region

Good luck.

EMULATOR: COMPILATION OF THE ORIGINAL GAME (ROM) EMULATING THE SYSTEM WHERE IT WAS COMPILED INTO A NEW HARDWARE.
PORT: NATIVELY COMPILED VIDEO GAME ON NEW HARDWARE.
REMASTERED: NATIVELY COMPILED VIDEO GAME ON NEW HARDWARE IMPROVEMENTS
REMAKE: A NEW VIDEO GAME THOUGHT ON THE NEW HARDWARE

IT'S NOT A PORT, so they stop telling you like that.

I thought it was to activate Layeredfs or so I remember.

Can anyone dump the .rom or .iso of Super Mario 64 or Sunshine?

I'm really curious how they will behave if they run on a real Nintendo 64 or Game Cube.

I wanted to test the Super Mario Sunshine on the Nintendont of the Wii U, the layout of the Game Cube games are not very nice on the Wii U GamePad, I believe that this version corrects this problem.

I'm laughing so hard right now, this community, You guys are killers, litterally !

1 second after this is released, you all are hardworking and extracting things to try and test dump the emulator they made.

I'm so grateful and proud of all your good vibes out ther to achieve one thing :
GREAT NATIVE WII EMULATION with those joycon-remote :D !

I FUCKING CALLED IT!
Yet they were jerks saying "but it changes controls, but it has higher res, but textures" bla bla bla.
It was fucking obvious they were gonna be emulated, Nintendo's well known for being lazy fucks.

Thanks for once, Nintendo, for this gift.
Now we can exploit it for other GC/Wii games. ;)
For evrything else, they can still fuck off. lol
The only thing that I agree with you is that you cannot use original cartridges to play your own collection. At least in Nintendo, whether it is backwards compatible or by Emulation, the cartridge ports are not compatible like the conventional ones of other CD / DVD / Blu-Ray systems

At least you can dream that N64 Online, NGC Online, Wii Online will come out, with the advantage that you can play multiplayer Online, and the disadvantage that it will be a very small catalog, but it can be expanded through Layeredfs, but without Online. At the moment we only have these three games from three different systems.
