Frets on Fire for Wii

would have awkward controls but i wish someone would do this

 

How would it have awkward controls...? Couldn't you just use the Wiimote guitar from GH? Not everyone has it but just wondering. If there were to be a port, there should be GH controller support.

 

Well, I know nothing about coding, so this is just an educated guess. It's probably possible, but it would have to be heavily modified to do so, and running it through Wii-Linux probably wouldn't be a good idea, as emulating takes more power than just running. I.e. The Wii has the harware to play games with GameCube graphics, but isn't powerful enough to actually emulate the GameCube. Poor example, as the Wii can play gameCube games lol, but that's only because it limits the hardware and shuts down Wii functions like the SD slot to make it think it's a GameCube.

And, yeah, you could easily use the Guitar Hero guitar.

 

well for someone like me who doesnt have a gh controler

also usb keyboard support FTW

 

So With Linux on Wii we can play FoF?

 

You'd probably have to optimize the game itself real good to run on a Wii. At least you only have to worry about it runnin' in 640x480, so there's a good start for the optimization

 

So, i put the Installer and install? Or i put the folder into de SD Card and run?

 

If this was done it'd be cool to see USB Guitar support for those of us with the 360 version. That probably opens a number of other issues, but with flash drive support looking promising maybe we'll be seeing some more usb support in the near future.

 

Just play the pc version, I don't see why it should be on wii. btw it's finnish game o/

 

Does it makes it better ? or worse ?

 

well the other thing someone could do is just let us execute a program coded in python (like fof) be launched, so you wouldnt need to run linux, just the python based app... again...im also no programmer so this probably sounds like complete babble.

its easy to say "just use it on the pc" but sometimes the pc isnt in a good enough position to use a game like this, my wii is on a huge tv with a decent sound system and it also means someone else can do use the pc while im playing fof on wii.

on the other hand, you can always just make some custom GH3 wii discs using my guide over at scorehero.com

fof would only be beneficial because of the sheer amount of songs at any one time you can have on there, its endless!
