        back to work wagie

        I see current consoles and most of the good games are on PC anyways. Why the frick would I shell out hundreds of dollars for some crap console that has very few exclusives that I care about? I'll take a homebrewed Wii over any current console any day because I have a decent enough computer to handle current games on it without having to shell out more money for a crappy computer disguised as a console.

        While I hate being a wagie how exactly do you zoomers live with all your living expenses? And retro consoles aren't even expensive unless you're chasing rare models same with the games.

    its only good for nintendo stuff from that era cause nintendo's always had the same controller, but if you want an atari paddle or a genesis controller you gotta buy those consoles

      The emulation on this isn't very good. Also, controller options suck.

      Nintendont lets you use pretty much any USB controller and Retroarch is available which should do the same.

      240p and that's it. Anything after SNES is a fool's errand.

      As this anon said emulation beyond the SNES is a mixed bag. You have Virtual Console ports which ease the pain a bit but that's it.
      Beyond that the GC/Wii library is a big draw for me personally.

        Yeah thats the big flaw is 5th gen is entirely missing, if it ran PSX and N64 games well it would be a perfect solution for me. Maybe if anyone ever ports Duckstation to Wii it'll get decent PSX emulation but for now its just a really good cheap way to emulate the 2D gens on a CRT with component out.

        I also really hate playing the N64 Virtual Console games because the stick sensitivity is way off. Try playing Star Fox you cant aim for shit

          Well OP's premise was 4th gen and earlier after all so for him it works out, but I agree with you.
          Been playing the GC collectors edition Ocarina of Time and I noticed the stick feels like pure ASS.
          Damn shame.

          Sadly the best we have its fork after fork after fork of WiiSX anf it still shit, personally they should jist port the mednafen psx core properly.

        >Retroarch

        Bruh, Retroarch on Wii is objectively and subjectively horrible, all its emus are based on 2012 cores and MAME is early 2000s that cant even run Caveman Ninja at full speed.

      That's probably why he said fourth and older because once you hit fifth generation and beyond the emulation quality tanks

        There are plenty of 4th gen games that don't emulate properly. The music especially is all fricked up half the time you emulate anything on mega drive.

    Yeah, you'll have a PC and will be like, "Who needs a 4th gen or below console?"
    Then you'll get bored of all those older consoles and the Wii, and you'll ponder, "What about me Speccy?"

    Don't think the wii can go above 480p
    with mods to the older systems you can get 1080p etc.
    Otherwise you might as well just be using a retropie since you're still emulating. Wii can't do savestates or scanlines either.

      If you're using a Wii, you're probably interested in 240p output to a CRT rather than any upscaling nonsense on a HD LCD.

      Its not great for 5th gen and even GBA, but before? It's pretty good, especially because again, games can run at 240p. Its the best emubox for CRT owners.
      Plus if you want you can just hook up component cables to it later on and GC games in 480p for much less than any of the GC Video solutions, good as they are.

        The only flaw I ever had with the GBA is that the game looks messy on the big screen due to stretching. Which is obviously going to happen regardless of anything else.
        Also it's good for emulating Gamecube games. I played both GC Pikmin games on my hacked game via roms without any real issue.

    I use it for some stuff, I got a mister now though so it’s becoming obsolete for retro for me. Still useful for GameCube however. Wii is no good for N64 though, Just use original hardware
