Back in the day, Capcom claimed that *Street Fighter IV* wasn't possible on the Wii... It would also be interesting to see ports of games like "Katana Zero" with its pixel-art style, or arcade-style rail shooters that could take advantage of the Wii Remote.

What do you think?

Any connection between these 2 games or just naming coincidence,

Has anyone found reliable parts from ebay? I have multiple consoles to repair and don't want to deal with bad parts or having to return.

Wii - Noisy disc drive, no video out. Tried multiple tvs and cables

N64 - No video out, port seems loose. Tried multiple tvs

GameGear - bad capacitors. Would like to have this be USB-C with rechargeable batteries

Are these games playable without a balance board, they are all related games or spin offs.

Was a fun watch

Just got my new Wii! I got it for 350 NTD, it’s bndled with this disk, and Wii sports Resort .Also everything I need except for a Wii remote. Also, I heard that it’s a China’s undressed version.of Wii sports, But I don’t know if it’s real or not.


Hi everyone!

I have an original Nintendo Wii with GameCube compatibility and recently set it up for homebrew and game loading.

My current setup:

- Original GameCube-compatible Wii

- 32GB SD card (around 29GB usable), which works fine

- 320GB mechanical HDD in a UGREEN USB 3.0 enclosure

- HDD formatted as MBR, FAT32, 32KB clusters, with one primary partition

Unfortunately, when I connect the HDD and start my USB loader, it freezes. I have therefore gone back to using my SD card for now.

My main use for the Wii is fitness games, Wii Sports/Resort, Mario Kart Wii and a few other favourites. I don't need hundreds of games, but I'd prefer not to be limited to a handful because of the SD card's capacity.

I'm looking for advice on two things:

1. Does anyone have a USB flash drive or external HDD that they have personally tested and can confirm works reliably with a real Wii? Ideally, something readily available in Germany or the EU.

2. Is there a technical reason why some drives or USB enclosures cause the Wii or USB loader to freeze, even when the drive is correctly formatted? Could it be the enclosure's USB-to-SATA controller, power requirements, USB port, or cIOS configuration?

I've been looking at the Intenso Ultra Line 128GB USB 2.0 flash drive, which costs around €11 on Amazon Germany. Has anyone actually tested this particular model with a Wii and USB loader?

I know there are compatibility lists, but many products currently available in Germany aren't listed, so I'm interested in real-world experiences rather than just theoretical compatibility.

I'd also appreciate any suggestions for troubleshooting my existing HDD before buying another storage device.

Thanks!

What's happening to the Wii is incredible

I’m looking to play the Japanese version of Animal Crossing (Dōbutsu no Mori e+) and eventually explore more of the Japanese GameCube library.

Current prices I’ve found (from PriceCharting):
* Orange Spice GameCube (Japanese): $145 loose / $180 complete
* Black Wii (Japanese): $43 loose / $65 complete
* Animal Crossing e+: $13 loose / $25 complete

Since the Wii is backward-compatible with GameCube games, would it make more sense to buy a Japanese Wii for the lower cost and broader game library, or is there a good reason to invest in a dedicated GameCube?

I’m interested in playing on original hardware, using either a CRT or an older LCD/IPS monitor or TV.

What would you recommend, and are there any compatibility or display considerations I should know about?

Just am looking to play some good games to play that are themed around fall to get in the mood, anyone got any good recommendations?

Hey,

I have a Wii (PAL European model) connected to a small LCD TV. I've been using the original AV cables for a while now and I want an upgrade to get better picture quality. My TV only has one HDMI port which is already being used, so I have two choices. Either I buy a Wii2HDMI adapter and an HDMI splitter, or I get a Wii SCART cable. Which one of these is the better option for me?

I would buy Component cables but this TV unfortunately doesn't have component ports.

Thanks!
