dunno if this is the right place for this topic but I'm interested in getting my Wii to work with my old AR for Gamecube for Gamecube playing use

If I'm right - you're asking if it's possible to use the old AR for the Gamecube (which IIRC was a small CD & a memory card that plugged into a Gamecube slot) on the Wii

Bad news I'm afraid - it won't work, especially if you've upgraded the firmware on the Wii

I had one when the Wii first came out & it didn't work (although I'm sure it did work on some older games BEFORE I upgraded the firmware).

I contacted the manufacturer (Codemasters) & their answer was basically - "No chance. The device was built for the Gamecube & not for the Wii. the hardware is designed differently" (admittively it was many years ago & I may of forgotten most of their reply - but you get the gist of it)

I may be wrong - & perhaps some1 else can confirm this

    at all
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
