Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

I don't think there's any true advantage to using Snes9x 1.53 in RPX format vs Elf. The only reason for RPX is to overcome memory limitations for emulators like MAME, for Snes9x, ELF is sufficient, tbh


The 1/17 builds are good enough for me.

I was just joking haha.
Most of my cores are still ELF, the only core I have as an RPX is Mame 2003 and that's it.
I might switch to rpx entirely but not at the moment
Maybe when XMB comes around haha.

Yeah, the versions I have are stable, never encountered a single crash, no need for an update

XMB, really????

Yeah, it might come eventually.
I have my hopes held up, besides it's not like I am asking for anything like an N64 Dynarec. xD
XMB came to the 3DS, Wii U might be ahead.

Create a wiiu folder in the root of the sd card, then create an apps folder inside the wiiu folder. Finally put the mame2003_libretro and all apps you want inside the apps folder.

I've added FBAlpha to the nightly Wii U libretro builds. I also updated 25 of the emulators on the appstore. I'm trying to make sure that everything on the appstore has the multi-controllers and screen rotation. There are some builds not in the nightlies that I do not have downloaded in order to compile on my PC, but if anyone has compiled any of these against bc8b3eb (https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/tree/bc8b3ebad54f237ff2fdd2016bfdc477ad1782d2), please post or give me a link, and I can add them to the appstore. If you want to know if an emulator has already been updated on the appstore, if it has today's date on it, I have already done it.

Which ones are missing from the appstore?

idk how to install the channel for homebrew on wiiu because it doesnt show up on wup unstaller

This is a list of the ones that have been added:
The nightlies, you can get the list here - https://github.com/xhp-creations/libretro-super/blob/master/recipes/nintendo/wiiu
Besides those , I have made Fuse, O2EM, Pro System, and Stella.

Whatever is left over from those on this page - http://wiiubru.com/appstore/#/category/emulators is what needs to be built to update the appstore.

Of course, CHIP-8, gacubeboy, and GBiine are not libretro cores.
