Where do you want to take a screenshot? inside CFG ? in a game?
any code in CFG work only in CFG loader, once the game boot there is no way to make a screenshot without using an USB Gecko (which the WiiU can't use).

on Wii, you could take a screenshot anywhere, even on Wii system menu, with a debugger (WiiRd, GeckoOS patch, USBGecko).
I don't think there is a similar tool to take screenshot outside of homebrew, using TCP gecko instead of USB.
Mayyybe with vWii neek ? I think neek has a function to capture raw video buffer data, and there's a tool to convert it to a common picture format. I never used it, so I can't confirm it works nor if it's really neek and not another homebrew I'm mistaking with.

    Yeah it works great but it's the obvious Ds factor you loose from it it's not like playing atari games on atari because Nintendo actually use to give a reason to buy their hardware

    I used a vertical touch 22" monitor for playing some 3DS games through Citra.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Can't be that far off from it not like ds requires super hardware
  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    @K3Nv2 I did that using Citra for 3DS games. Bottom screen was my smartphone. Until I got the touch screen.
  • SwordShielder @ SwordShielder:
    Use a TV
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Citra allows it already?
  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    Yes.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Ken I have that sort of set up on Drastic on Pi for games that don't require touch
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:

  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    Any TV with your PC connected with Citra and any smartphone to use as a screen using a free play store app.
