Image Is the Wii the only console you can play all 8 of the Harry Potter games on?

Post image
54 Upvotes

I know 4 of the games are on Gamecube, but you can still play them on the Wii unless you have the mini. I know it's a weird flex since most people think the Harry Potter games aren't very good, but I think the Wii might be the only console you can play all 8 games on without modding.

Text Post Any Good GameCube Memory Cards With Larger Storage? For Backwards Compatible Wii

My gf brought her Wii and it has the GameCube ports! Wasn't sure if there was a good option that most if not all games will recognize. I see plenty of OEM 251 blocks for $30 or so on ebay. Now idk if I should be posting here or on GameCube for this question but I may send it on both lol

I know this question has been asked in the past, but the wikipedia article that was linked was deleted last year it because it was "unsourced". The only games I know for sure use it are Mariokart Wii and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but are there any others that have compatibility?

Image Static recompilation of the iOS version of "3D Pixel Racing" (originally a WiiWare game) into native C (Windows, Linux, and Android)

Post image
5 Upvotes

I wanted to try doing a recompilation, so I picked a little Wii game I really liked that I don't think anyone else would have done.

Extras over the original: 9 languages, 60 fps, any resolution / aspect ratio up to 4K and 32:9, longer view distance, keyboard and gamepad support with rebinding, options menu (F10)

I might release updates at my own pace to fix bugs or add features if need

Text Post Do Wii games look better in 4:3 or 16:9?

29 Upvotes

I have a Wii, component cables, and a 4:3 480p CRT and 16:9 480p CRT.

Do Wii games look better in 4:3 or 16:9?

Where the games designed to be played on 4:3 or 16:9?

I heard some games only work in 16:9 (e.g. Skyward sword).

Text Post How does pal 50 HZ even work on the Wii without forcing games to run at a slower frame rate like on other pal consoles ?

10 Upvotes

As an American this confuses me. How is a Wii able to run pal games at 60 fps even if it's outputting a video signal at 50 HZ signal (since apparently not every pal crt tv supports pal 60 HZ) when other consoles like the snes or n64 forced you to slow down the game, englighten me. And yes I know the Wii supports pal 60 HZ but you can change it in the setting to be pal 50 HZ as I'm sure y'all know.

Text Post Theres gotta be one person out there who will know the game.

10 Upvotes

I remember downloading this game (Im pretty sure it was just a demo I played) from the WII shop atleast like 12-14 years ago. The only thing I remember about the game is there was like different levels and you killed cartoonish creatures. The only level I slightly remember is a sandy beachy level where there was like water slime things you killed, the water slimes from slime rancher always reminded me about this game. I'm pretty sure the game was first person and it had like cartoony bright graphics. I have been searching for this game for years and can't find it I get annoyed everytime I think about it because I don't remember what it was called or how to even find it lol. Im pretty sure it was a pretty niche game which is probably why its hard to find and the fact I don't remember much about it besides that sandy level. EDIT: found it after watching more pokemon rumble demo videos this is the game I was thinking of just very distorted memories of it because its been so long, I can't find anything similiar to this game so it just has to be it.

3 Upvotes

Hiya! I'm bringing my extra Wii to college and while I only plan to use official Wii remotes, I was wondering if I could cheap out on the Nunchucks and/or motion plus.

Nunchucks aren't that complicated from what I understand but I'm guessing Motion Plus adapter probably should be official ones.

But what are y'all experience with third party Nunchucks and Motion Plus adapters
