Homebrew PokeMiniU - Pokemon Mini emulator for Wii U

[shutterbug2000]

So, I've been spending some time on a port of PokeMini. I'd say it is at least usable now, but the colors are off(everything is blue) and the menu has serious graphical corruption(but the emulated screen looks fine, except it appears twice? Oh, and it's too small...).

Here is a video of a rom running in the emulator:

(If you want to add this to HBAS, feel free!)

Put the rom as mini/min.min on sd, then select it from the file select(press down on garbled menu, hardcoded path currently.)

(yes, I know it's pretty bad at the moment. But I do plan on improving it!)

Awesome stuff! Emulators are always a good thing.
@pwsincd I think this deserves a spot on HBAS, yeah?

 

[Stalls]

This is pretty cool.

Is PokeMini by libretro on the Homebrew appstore your work or are this and PokeMiniU 2 distinct projects ?

Both are (separate) ports of JustBurn's original PokeMini emulator.

I can't help, but since this port was last updated ~7 years ago, you are probably better off using the PokeMini core in RetroArch.

I've just tried that Pokemini by libretro. It does run, showing a retroarch-like menu. However, when a game is loaded, the console crashes.
Furthermore, it messes with the real retroarch installation files in sd:/retroarch.

As VageRant said, the best choice is a current retroarch setup.

Yeah best option for emulating Pokémon Mini on consoles like Wii and Wii U is the PokeMini Libretro core on RetroArch.
