So can someone explain to me if this would work?

If you had a modded psp that had a gba emulator with a bios running, and connected it via usb, wouldnt it be possible to program nintendont to recognize the gba bios as a gba on the wii?
It would be even cooler if this can be done using the Wii U gamepad, this was a suggestion I made very early on this project, of course at the time I didn't know that it's still impossible, for all I knew the Wii U gamepad was just another bluetooth controller!

Thanks..Im in the process of redumping w/o dummy data ripped. I'll see what happens afterwords. And yeah agree with hit and miss...Ive had some games work and like the previous ones mentioned..didnt.

Don't forget to check the MD5 hash value to make sure it was a good dump.

I just got a new Seagate Backup Plus 4TB drive to replace one that failed. The original one worked fine with Nintendont. This one isn't recognized by Nintendont. It does work fine playing Wii games from WiiFlow, CFG and USB Loader GX. The drive is formatted as a single FAT32 partition just like the previous one.

Is there anything I can do to help debug so this drive is usable with Nintendont?

TIA.

Is that one of the models that has built-in encryption? I remember people saying those seemed to be having issues.
It's not listed on Seagate's Wii-U compatibility list: http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/005004en?language=en_US

I loaded up Nintendont and chose SD but it says no FAT device found, or missing sd:/games dir.

I put the games folder in the Nintendont folder. So... SD > apps > Nintendont > games > (Folder with name of game) > Game.iso

Read. The. OP.

I'll spoon-feed you the info too: :ha:
1: The ISO must go in SD > games > (Folder with name of game) > game.iso (game.iso MUST BE LOWER CASE, not Game.iso)
2: Your SD card MUST be formatted with FAT32.

I used a guide from a different site that told me it could be anywhere.

Anyways, I fixed all that, loaded Nintendont and chose SD card. Then clicked on Boot GC Disc in Drive [DISC01] and got The Disc Drive could not be initialized.

Boot GC Disc in Drive tries to boot whatever disc is in the console's disc drive, not a game from the SD. If you don't see your game in the list, then try reading the OP and if that doesn't help, then post more details. (like your SD card format)

the iso and game folder are not inside nintendont

they are on the root

you should havd
SD/USB>apps>nintendont
SD/USB>games>game namedoesnt matter like "Wind waker">game.iso


I found the problem a few minutes ago. It works now. I'm confused though. Can I still save my data without a memory or not?
