Nintendo Wii Homebrew: SNES Emulator, info and download - Image 1

Homebrew developers Askot and dsbomb has released a new version of SNES9X v1.43 for the Nintendo Wii. If you aren't familiar with the program, it's an emulator that allows the Wii to play SNES roms.

Askot also recently released a NES Emulator for the Wii. Being from the same author, some of the changes between the two programs are the same.

Here's the changelog for SNES9X v1.43 0.0.9:

Version 0.0.9 - 20080325

Added SDCARD slot selection for searching roms, meaning, you can search rom files from SDCARD SLOT A or SLOT B (Beta, meaning, buggy, but works).
For standarization, you must create folders root:/snes9x/roms to read SNES roms files from SDCARD.
Added combo L+R+X+Y to call menu.

Requirements for the program:

SoftMod and/or HardMod (to boot the dol)
Zipped or not (.smc & .fig) ROMS

The program is still in its beta stage, and the download does not include a readme, so be sure to know what you're doing before using the program.

# It loads on the front sd — MyDixieNormous 2008-03-29 05:39

Confirmed. Gamecube pads work. The GUI is great. Can't seem to get my roms to work. I choose "load from sd" and it says couldn't find dev0/fceu/roms..I'm guessing you make a folder called fceu and make a rom folder within that to put your roms..I'll have to test it out. But thanks askot and dsbomb!

# Making — MyDixieNormous 2008-03-29 05:46

the folder didn't work. But if you want to know how to install it:

I copied everything to the root of my sd card and renamed the snesgx.wii.elf to boot.elf and it loaded. But now I have no idea on how to run my roms. Please help

# Suggestion — Guest 2008-03-29 05:55

Try making the folder root:[slash]sne s9x[slash]roms and storing the roms there. Sorry for using the brackets. Apparently our comments page does not support the slash symbol. Hopefully we can get that fixed in the future.

# Didn't work.. — MyDixieNormous 2008-03-29 08:27

I've tried everything from dev/fceu/roms to root/snes9x/roms to snes9x/roms and it's not working :( I wish they would include readmes.

# here's the error messgae — MyDixieNormous 2008-03-29 08:55

"Error reading dev0:\fceu\roms Press A to Continue"

# Maybe — Guest 2008-03-29 09:42

Are you trying to load from the front SD Card slot? Unfortunately, the program currently doesn't load from there. For now, the program needs an SD Gecko, a card adapter for the Wii.

# that's why — MyDixieNormous 2008-03-29 09:46

I was about to throw my wii lol thanks ^^ I'll try burning them and see if they work that way.

# I wonder... — ThrashWolf 2008-03-29 09:57

I've often wondered if that would work on an unchipped wii. be sure to report back

# I asked the guys in wii dev about the front sd loading problem,. — ShadeyProphet 2008-03-29 10:01

They say the wii lib for front sd loading isnt quite finished yet, and for that reason isnt fant enough to play/load roms from the front sd at the moment.

however "svpe, a coder working on the sd lib for the wii says his front sd lib is almost finished.

so soon we sould be seeing emu's that load roms from front sd.

This info was from the #wiidev channel on irc server

irc.efnet.net

# softmod? — cenobyte 2008-03-29 22:03

The requirements state you need a hard or softmod. What do they mean with softmod? Is that the twilight hack? Can anyone give me a link to a tutorial page or some sorts to do the softmod hack? Thanks in advance.

# It's the twilight hack — ThrashWolf 2008-03-30 04:48

wiibrew . org

that has all the info you need including tutorials

# cool — Mister Common Sense 2008-03-31 12:26

All right homebrew! Why pay $5-$10 for roms that can be downloaded for free? Only losers like isohaven do that. This emulator is even better than the Nintendo one.

# no — xLinkinwormx 2008-03-31 17:18

not everyone will use this just because its free, its not about ripping on the company, people will still buy from nintendo. i for one will only use this for some games like plok

# i know — xLinkinwormx 2008-03-31 17:20

you have to create snes9x/roms folders on the root of the sd card
