Hacking How do I port certain games to the Wii, 3DS, etc.?

[Johnny2071]

I know this sounds like a stupid question, but I have little knowledge of how porting games work. Let me list some hypothetical examples of what I have in mind:

-Saturn games: Sonic Jam, NiGHTS into Dreams, Rayman (Console), Super Tempo, All three Darkstalkers games --> Port as Wii ISOs
-32X Games: Knuckles Chaotix, Tempo, Kolibri --> Port as Wii ISOs
-PC Games: Sonic Before the Sequel, Mother 4, Undertale, Psycho Waluigi --> Port as Wii ISOs
-PS2: Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike, Klonoa 2, Katamari Damacy
-PSP: Sonic Rivals, Sonic Rivals 2 --> Port as 3DS games
-Dreamcast: Power Stone, Power Stone 2, Sonic Shuffle, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 --> Port as Wii or Gamecube ISOs
-SegaSonic Arcade --> Port as 3DS game
-Sonic Championship HD --> Port as WiiWare game/WAD

I didn't list Sonic Generations (Console) and Sonic 4: Episode 2 because it was confirmed that the Wii wasn't powerful enough to run those games.

I only come here because I don't know where else to get answers from.

You should learn how to port games. You need to know the tools, the programming languages, loads of time, dev kits, etc. If you don't know how. You shouldn't be asking.

There's not much else you can do.

You can port games to the PS Vita if they're made in GameMaker.
