I've been reading the forums for a while and I am curious if it's possible to load games from a SD card on a chipped wii. My guess is not yet due to the signed code issue but I just thought I would ask.

not only would you need a large sd card, but i also dont think an sd card would be the best means of loading and playing 4.7gig worth of data.... even if this was possible, dvd media is still the way to go!

you can run GC homebrew including game console emulators easily from the SD card. just put the SDLOAD DVD into WII, and your GC DOL's to the SD card (in GC gamecard slot A). After SDLOAD starts you are limited to GC hardware, eg an only use GC controller.

Anyone feeling like making a European version of the iso?

ehm hum, doesnt it work on PAL, did never think of it.
there is only one SDLOAD.DOL used in all SDLOAD ISO's as far as know,
so if it does not work on PAL then its possible the SDLOAD.DOL the reason.
unfortunatly the SDLOAD sources are not available so it cant be recompiled,
need to rewrite from scratch.

I don't think SDload is the problem, mainly because some people do get it to work using GCOS. Probably the header info on the disc is USA which tells the Wii not to load it

. Just my 2cents, I'm not very well into GC homebrew so sorry if it doesn't make any sense

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.

    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length

    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
