mimo Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 It depends on the firmware your Wii is on, firstly you need to get the homebrew channel installed then we can take things from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you say you are updated to the latest Wii firmware then you'll need any one of five particular games to get the Homebrew Channel installed. Follow that guide and check the forum on the wiibrew.org site. That is a good and appropriate forum for getting your Wii homebrew enabled. Once you've done that, come back here and we can proceed to help you get Wii7800 installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get the Homebrew Channel installed, you'll need one of 5 games (best one to use is Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as this exploit will be the hardest for Nintendo to get around), an SD card (not HCSD, at least for the first step in softmodding your Wii--you can use an HCSD card once you've finished installing the hack), and the step-by-step guide available here. Once you have done that, Wii7800 is available from the Homebrew Browser. Install. Then load up that SD card with your .A78 format ROMs (copy them from your PC to your SD card, in the WII7800\roms folder), put SD card back in Wii, load Wii7800 from the Homebrew channel, and have fun!

Rex Dart Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 That homebrew browser software is pretty rad. Lets you know when your emulators are out of date, updates them for you too if you want. I wish every homebrew-enabled console/handheld had something similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 now all I need is some way to use original controllers on the wii with the emus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockin' Kat Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 now all I need is some way to use original controllers on the wii with the emus... A quick search for: gamecube controller adaptor brings up several different adapters for connecting older controllers to the gamecube... which should be usable with the Wii since it has gamecube control ports on top... didn't see anything for older Atari, Sega, etc... controllers, but I did see several for NES, PlayStation, and N64 controllers... ...Maybe if you look you might find one which could be modified for use with the 7800 controllers. Might have to involve turning an NES contoll pad into a 7800 to NES adapter and using that with the NES to GameCube adapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) 9-pin to nes to gamecube? http://www.aliexpress.com/store/500168/200107236-332576028/Free-Shipping-Newest-Hot-Sale-NES-SNES-to-Wii-Adapter-Converter-SL87.html actually that looks like it would do it! has a 9 pin port! wonder if the emus would know to use a digital one or two button controller in that way... also, wonder if the 9 pin port would properly support 2600/7800 controllers...

Rex Dart Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I don't think that would work for atari pads... not being NES controllers and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockin' Kat Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I think that it's really weird that it says NES/SNES on it but I don't see ports for an NES controller... just that 9pin connector and then the SNES control port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 now all I need is some way to use original controllers on the wii with the emus... I bought this one a while back http://www.raphnet-tech.com/products/genesis_to_wii/index.php?category=Gaming It works very well, but only Atari / Genesis/sms He also makes a snes version http://www.raphnet-tech.com/products/snes_to_wii/index.php?category=Adapters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's for 9-pin NES controllers, like it says. They usually come with NES clones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
