Well I do for example. Just faster to rip an ISO than downloading it. Does that make me an aprils fool joke?

if you just own a wii and a copy of the original game tho you can softmod the wii in a manner which allows the wii to read the games onto a usb memory stick which you can then pop into the PC and use with this emulator perfectly with a little more graphical options than you find on your wii system, AA all over the place etc :) Will point out tho that some of the games like Smash brawl is about 7-8gb and it takes the wii the better part of an hour to get every bit off the dvd. Worth it tho for some games, just nice to see some games in 1080p

As for dieappledie, when taiko no tatsujin Wii: Do Don to Nidaime Comes out in europe I'll feel bad for having played it via other means, til then I'm glad I get to see some of japans locked away goodies and not just sit about wishing for them to be localized before I'm dead. I'm sure me having an image of a game which was never in a store within 5000miles of me is still stealing 50euros from Namco tho right?

1. of course by now there is no sign as it is just out. but as i said: if it turns out wiiu uses the same isa and the gpu-research is going good, the emu just has to be adjusted. the main-work is already done.

2. i already said that speed is another thing for emulation.

3. why do i have to trust you? what is your proof of this statement? emulation has nothing to do with performance but with complexity and documentation on hardware. and effort that is needed.

4. ps3 *is* way off as i already said.

5. what you "see" is not important - what is and what can be done is.

6. you can think whatever you want ;) i doubt there will ever be a serious x360-emu. 

7. the xbox didn't even need an emulator - it needed a wrapper for api-calls which is not really emulation. whixh was a pita because of documentation so it was not done.

I hope for your sake that you don't enter a quote wall debate about copyright infringement, intellectual property, and the limited licencing rights granted to legitimate recipients of media, because you may find yourself overwhelmed by new and confusing realisations.

You were on the pulse with this one, but it remains to be seen if will prove itself to be a viable decision, and that depends entirely on how its opponents will react in the short term (perhaps employing legal means or turning the tide of popular opinion), rather than collecting statistics. After all, the most vehement arguments against copyright infringement tend to employ hyperbole such as "stealing money out of the mouths of artists" and "causing job losses" and other nebulous things. Anyone with half a brain can see that it is only ever losses which trickle down, and gains trickle up. Unfortunately, my own stance on this could be seen as some sort of liberal commie scumbag shit, rather than good old-fashioned rationality, so I fear that these progressive measures won't last long.

Looks cool. When I get a better PC, I'll definitely play my Wii games this way in 3D, AA and better resolution instead of the 480p Wii.

Holy thread resurrection batman! :)

Can this play all wii games?

If the game requires the Wii Motion plus I think there is no way to play it, but don't quote me on this.

Was just looking online and theres already websites that have WiiU game you can download:/ not for this emulator though.
