Glad to see this emulator continually being worked on!

 

[Xexyz]

Yes! A new update!

 

[zeldascorn]

Good news! Woohooo.

 

[KiiWii]

Now we just need an updated build for Wii/vWii

My thoughts exactly...

 

[Jayro]

Oh yeah, looks REAL promising... >_>

(Tried 8 different ROMs before giving up.)

Can I ask why? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think the Wii could run that emulator at any considerable/playable speed...?

Do you have a 64-bit CPU by chance? Try the 64-bit build if you can (assuming you're on a 64-bit OS). The crash doesn't happen to me at all, also make sure your DirectX redistribute is up to date

Any optimization is a good thing. I (perhaps wrongly) presume that better code, re-ported could run better on wii.

This update wont change much, but it could perhaps fix a few niggles.

I cant imagine it running 100% without frame skip, but I do think its achievable to run at good speeds.

Arikado/dancing ninja used to be working on this, and they did great things with what is now old code.

Don't wanna be a kill joy, but I don't have high hopes for any major optimizations for the Wii (I personally rather would run said emulator on a PC where raw power can be taken advantage of), but that's just me.

 

[KiiWii]

I totally agree, but on PC I dont think the controls would work so well... it surely works out better on the Wii with the point and click vs stylus option?

I just use an Xbox 360 controller since it's better than the keyboard. If the Wii U ever gets hacked, then raw power will be non-issue

I just use a USB controller myself. The only thing that sucks is that the touchscreen doesn't work well on a touchscreen computer.
