Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[Osakasan]

Does someone know, that there is the option for the gamepad to emulate the SNES mouse?

We barely have the gamepad working and that's because it's the de facto controller for Wii U. We may have to wait (and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait...) before such feature is implemented

EDIT: Somehow i think it would be easier to get a USB mouse working on it. Has there been a word about implementing USB and such?

Another alternative is a Wiimote. I guess that would be even easier (maybe porting the code from Wii's Retroarch?)

Amazing emulators!

Not the same thing, but you should easily be able to find a hacked version of Mario Paint that uses the DPad.

Hi!
Can someone upload a pre-compiled version of RetroArch?
I'm trying to make a channel version of this. I have used the SNES9x2010 rpx file included in the download, I used a dummy file in content and made some icons (they are validated with a Nintendo Developers Tool, so they are correct) but it freezes and showed a black screen with an error and the typical, try again, if not call support service.. blah blah
So can anyone upload it or say what content I have to put for make it work
Thanks, bye!!

you can use devkitpro and libwiiu to compile besides, using an official devkit tools outside a licence is illegal and unnecessary to build homebrew.
edit* you could ask @FIX94 since he has been working on wii u hombrew for quite some time

Be sure you have the correct bios files and that they are inside SD:/retroarch/cores/system/

I have those MSX, MSX2, MSX2P, MSX2PEXT, MSX2EXT, that are listed in the fMSX page... and I got code dump trying to load a game...

Those are for fMSX, that doesn´t have a core yet for WiiU. For BlueMSX you need to copy the entire "Machines" folder from the Windows version to SD:/retroarch/cores/system/

Please tell me that you want this for the nostalgia factor, and not to just be able to draw with the tablet with homebrew, or else RIP me.

In that case I need to change the bios folder in retroach to "machines"?

No, just leave it as SD:/retroarch/cores/system/.

Its almost like you are hinting that you may have made a wiiu homebrew paint program that is better than Mario Paint lol.

It works now, thanks!

Of course for the nostalgia factor! I love that game, it's more than just a drawing game

Could you test The Castle and The Castle Excellent in the BlueMSX core? I can´t get the controls to work in this games.

Ok, cool, I just had to make sure. I used to constantly have people that hadn't heard of U-Paint, even people that had been around forever.
