so I DL mario kart 64 asap this morning. got 3 friends together and plugged in my GC controllers. well 3 worked (official) but 1 controller (crap 3rd party 'pro' GC from blockbuster for $4.99) will not work on the wii. not in any game or even in gamecube mode. it does work in my actual gamecube though. so is nintendo locking out unofficial accessories in the wii? everybody else try your non-nintendo GC controllers with the wii and let me know

First the Freeloader / AR, now 3rd party hardware. If this is true, Nintendo is being an asshole about unnofficial stuff.

I dont understand how the Wii would even KNOW it wasn't official, maybe if the controller utilized a method of interfacing that was significantly different from the stock ones, then atleast they could claim a compatibility issue or just say they don't support it anymore. But that is strange.

  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    i tried just yuzu so far, not even played, just open the game to see if it run

    By the way, is there any website you recommend to search for some roms?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    No you are not allowed to discuss them here, against the rules of the site. Sorry. But you can Google Nintendo NSP and there will be a few listed.
