If not, don’t worry-it’s nearly impossible to even search for “emulator ROMs” without practically falling into a giant pile of them.

If you’re a long time retro game fan there’s a good chance you already have a pile of ROMs sitting around waiting to be loaded into the newest emulator to come across your work bench. We’ll go over where you can dig up ROMs in the first section. For SNES games, however, the Wiimote is a poor fit as you need to do some pretty fancy fingering to use the SNES X and Y buttons.įor SNES emulation we strongly recommend either using the Wii Classic controller (offers a perfect 1:1 fit for the SNES’s A, B, X, Y configuration) or a GameCube controller (the right-hand button layout is slightly different than the SNES controller but it’s close enough that you should have no problems using it).įinally, you need game ROMs to make this work-without them you’ll have an awesome emulator setup with no games to actually load in the emulator. Second, the regular Wiimote works awesome for NES emulation (as, held sideways, it is essentially a thick NES controller). This tutorial will not walk you through the soft mod process. Make sure to install the Homebrew Browser while you’re at it. Therefore, we strongly suggest you read over The Complete Softmod Guide to ensure you are performing the correct mod technique for your particular Wii. While we have shown you how to hack your Wii for homebrew before, new editions of the Wii operating system software require different techniques for soft-modding. First, this project requires a soft-modded Wii unit that can run homebrew software.
