can someone explain what I'm looking at here? I came from wii modding (which I'm quickly figuring out is significantly easier than the wiiu) and I'm completely lost...
Thanks.Latest MGBA WUP https://mega.nz/folder/tkcU1LjR#y9B7DoBRhFBawDoHR-kb2Q
Needs Testing I just quickly whipped it up also if works will work on icons and banners etc... as Im starting fresh on everything as i have a new pc
Genesis Plus GX Latest build i could find https://mega.nz/folder/FoVBDLYZ#JpZgjE7MqwnKsYKDoXbcEw
Again untested please give feed back i will eventually be redoing this thread and organise it better also need to finish modding the wii U I just haven't had chance to install coldboot yet.
Also please let me know what else is missing or wanted to be updated and will get them done
Ok sorry will try making another build later today for it also updated post about what's broken and what works thank you.Thanks.
MGBA works perfectly with gamepad and all, but genplusgx shows a black screen.
once your wii U is modded install wup installer and then you need to install the emulators/injects with wup installer also if you have Facebook search for wii/WiiU Modders and we have a page that can help you out a lot morecan someone explain what I'm looking at here?

don't have facebook, but i can make an account. will the fb group explain how the emulators work? not super clear on how injection works. My girlfriend just wants a way to play her old dumped DS roms and the tutorials ive found on the topic are 3+ years old on youtube and only talk about older methods of cfw.once your wii U is modded install wup installer and then you need to install the emulators/injects with wup installer also if you have Facebook search for wii/WiiU Modders and we have a page that can help you out a lot more

Yeah thank you and expect updates in next week or so i know delayed but some family emergency had popped up so hadn't been able to get things done truly sorry everyoneWhaw!!!!!
MGBA WUP is so great and convenient!!! All WUP emulators will be Finally GREAT!!! Spongebob was wrong.
Joining Retroarch, Nintendont.....EMULATORS WUP are the new programs that works with ALL controllers working!!!
YES gamepad+wiipro controller+wimote and evenwith a controller connected to the wiimote!!
If all where like that, no need to switch from one controller to the other ANYMORE!!! (almost!!)
It work So great!.....Well done Danny19901!!!! So....
MGBA WUP works perfect!!
Visual gameboy advance WUP works perfect!!
SNES9XGX works perfect!!
FCEULTRA GX WUP works but Gamepad is down, but wii pro controller and wiimote do works!
WII64 WUP.....Works but one BIG pb, the SD drivers are down, so cannot load from a SD card what your want to load.
GXGEO WUP...works but I need more testing...doesn't support gamepad
Genesis GX WUP, I get a Dark Screen like Ber71, so it's Down for me.
It duplicated sorryWhaw!!!!!

That really depends on the context of the program. Some things even with Source Code provided are either just an incredible pain to port or are impossible without rewriting almost the entirety of the program yourself. One of the biggest reasons for this is because the Wii U runs specifically off of PowerPC which means the program given must be compatible with PPC or at least be able to be converted in some shape or form. However like I've said that isn't always easy. Circumstances may vary though.. So I'm not sure how I feel about giving a "general" answer on this as it really varies.Hi danny, could you do some particular Wup apps for Wiiu? WiiSXRX,virtual jaguar, genesis GX (your first version didn't work)
Vectrex also would be nice, there is no good vectrex emu on wiiu (retroarch and vecwii are so Bad)
Could someone port it to wiiu from https://github.com/amaiorano/vectrexy ?? (this emu is good!!)
I'm not a programmer, is it difficult to port a program to wiiu when you have source code?
Nope. As long as the compiler is able to produce PPC code you'll be fine. The real issues will be API differences (like there's no DirectX, OpenGL or Vulkan on the Wii U but GX2) and endianess (like many codes do little-endian sheningans which fail on a big-endian CPU like the Wii Us).One of the biggest reasons for this is because the Wii U runs specifically off of PowerPC which means the program given must be compatible with PPC
True, I was just giving a general statement since only programs I've written for Wii U have been by hand in PPC.Nope. As long as the compiler is able to produce PPC code you'll be fine. The real issues will be API differences (like there's no DirectX, OpenGL or Vulkan on the Wii U but GX2) and endianess (like many codes do little-endian sheningans which fail on a big-endian CPU like the Wii Us).
The first thing that you have to understand, is that simply making WUP packages out of existent Wii emulators for installing on the Wii U, is not "porting" anything. They run on the console because the Wii U is already 100% native to the same architecture used in the two previous consoles, both Gamecube and Wii, hence why it runs without any extra effort.How can you know a program is portable to wii or wiiu? Is there an easy way to port from wii to wiiu like Danny did for Snes9Rx WUP or FCEULTRA GX WUP? is it hard/long to do? What kind of language do you must know (powerpc or something else?)
What???ok niuus, fine, but was I mean...I cannot use a dol file application to install with wup installer, so how do you pass from one to the other? is it recompiled from scratch or converted in some way? is the source of a dol file converted in Wup Format? possible to imagine a dol to wup converter someday?
It's injected into the Wii Us Wii VC. A manual process is described here, for example: https://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-on-wii-u-virtual-console-injecting-games.483007/is it recompiled from scratch or converted in some way
