The dynamic duo of the wiibrew community, Tantric and Carl Kenner, has updated their DOSBox Wii project.

 

 

 

In case you haven't heard of DOSBox Wii, this is a port of the old DOS emulator for Nintendo's console using SDL Wii.

 

Changelog:

  • Updated to latest DOSBox SVN
  • Updated to latest libogc and devkitPPC
Features:
  • USB Keyboard and mouse support
  • Wiimote pointer support
  • SD/USB mounting
  • Most DOS games are playable
  • Home menu, with onscreen keyboard


Instructions:

  • You need a Wii Remote and a USB keyboard.
  • The C: drive will automatically be mounted to sd:/DOSBox/ if loaded from apps/dosbox-wii/. Otherwise, the directory the dol is loaded from will be mounted as C, and sd:/DOSBox as D (if present). The Z: driver is a virtual drive that is part of DOSBox.
  • Other drives can be mounted using the MOUNT command. Prefix sd: for an SD card, and usb: for a USB drive. The Wii's DVD drive and network folders can't be mounted at this time.
  • The configuration file is loaded from the directory the dol is located in (if present) and sd:/DOSBox/dosbox.conf otherwise. This file will be created automatically after you start DOSBox. Please edit it with a text editor to choose settings appropriate for each game.
  • Press the Home button, type "exit", press Ctrl+F9, or press Reset (on the console) to exit.
