Overall, which emulator is better in 2021, Rice or Glide?

For Glide, should we use the Wii64 version, or Not64?

Question about the compatibility list. Can we update it so that there is a column each, one for rice, one for Glide? The way it is now, it is a little ambiguous for some games if it will work on one but not the other.

Thanks!

To this day I find it extremely strange that the Wii U has not received a native PS1 or Nintendo 64 emulator and we have to use vWii ( or Virtual Console Inject ) to play on it.

Heck, the Wii U even has a PSP emulator, why not never received a PS1 or Nintendo 64 emulator?

Because they need dynamic recompilation or dynarec to run properly on PPC hardware. Unfortunately, no dev has ever done it because they moved on to Switch. Never happening because devs don't give a damn about Wii U.

That's really a shame, the Wii U here where I live has become quite popular as it's a cheaper option for anyone looking to play Mario Kart 8 or Zelda BOTW and a lot of people end up unlocking the console and putting in emulators and that sort of thing.

I was one of those people, I would like to see a PS1 and N64 emulator made in a way that uses all the console hardware, too bad it probably won't happen.

there is no better you should use both.

not64 for gl64 or if you want wiiugamepad you need regular wii64 since not64 doesnt support wiiugamepad

wii64 rice for well rice

some games work on one and some on the other, you dont need to pick one or the other just use both lol.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii

    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament

    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
