Homebrew RetroArch Wii question

[Haloman800]

Half of all MAME Wii games throw "Exception DSI Occured!" when you try to exit; can these ROMs be run through RetroArch? Is there a guide on setting up MAME roms to work with it? I'm hoping they'll launch/exit without throwing exceptions.

I'm using WiiFlow Masterpiece pack.

Search and you 'll be covered.

For RA Mame core see here what you need:

Also, make sure to use the right romsets: for Retroarch FBA, CPS1,CPS2, Neo Geo cores you need FBA romset roms, NOT Mame roms. Gametronic is a good place for FBA, CPS1, CPS2 roms and emuparadise for Neo Geo ones.

Hi guys, I'm sorry if I make a mistake in asking this.
I searched all over libretro site (I think) and did not find what I was looking for.
So, I installed last version of retroarch on my wii and used the no-intro set as a source for games.
Questions:
1 - Which cores are playable on my wii? What systems can I play with it?
2 - Is there a faq on how to use the front end for the wii (since it is different from retroarch for Linux, I don't know it´s name)?

Sorry my bad english...

I don't know, here in the 1.0.2 RA frontent, MAME2000 core works well with MAME37b11 roms.

I will try right now using 1.0.2 version and see if works. It worked for me some months ago with the same roms who i tried, but now stopped

Just noticed that you confused the 'mames'. I said mame078, this one is Mame2003, that one posted by @Wiimpathy on the other topic. Mame2000 is working fine here.
