I noticed my roms (snes, nes, etc) is all on the SD card while my GCube and Wii games are on the external Drive, is it possible to run the legacy games off of the external instead of storing it on the sd Card?
Homebrew Running Roms from external instead of card? (snes, etc.)

yes. drag & drop your sd card content to computer desktop. plug your external into computer. drag & drop those files onto your external hd. just run everything off external after plugging it back in Wii. keep sd card out. if you need sd for BOR or something else, unplug ExHD. Never have both SD & HDD run "plugged in" together.

that said, you'll have to most likely change rom path for nes, snes etc. through emulator settings. Or you can just fresh install emulators on your HDD. The sd card is good for few things aside from Homebrew install & Guitar Hero dlc

have u made any progress? the usb slot is a old problem. disregard if you are using up to date emus. folder not found is the normal error at emulator startup when changing directories. usb not found is another avenue. one i have not encountered running everything on FAT format. Some info would be useful on your side to help with your problem. Are you using Fat Partition? HDD size & make? Emulators up to date, versions. Ill help out as much as possible.
i know this is old but make sure you drive is mbr and not gpt. it wont see it

@SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that

@Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.+1 -

I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol

I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
