Still, playing Xenoblade in bed is good.The Nintendo 64 was in a class all on its own. Games using the nunchuck or motion controlls can still be injected, but unfortunately the GamePad can only be used as a second screen. This mean that most of the games using the Classic Controller (like Sonic Colors, The Last Story and so on) or the WiiMote sideways (like Castlevania: Adventure Rebirth) can be entirely played on the GamePad.

The community found a way to inject every Wii game into the VC wrapper Nintendo used some years ago. Of course the Wii U is backward compatible with the Wii.

You can inject a game if you want to have the game on your Wii U home screen (installing them on Wii U memory or Wii U HD), or you can inject Nintendont itself if you want to store your ISOs on the SD card. Nintendont also has a bult-in widescreen patch which works for most games and using cheats you can force 60fps on some games!Ĭompatibility list (If you are interested in enhancements with default settings every GC game works) Nintendont works on Wii U, which means every single GC games can be played! You can play the games using the GamePad, the Classic Controller or the official GCN controllers with the Smash or the MayFlash adapter. This is, in fact, the best way to play NDS game on a bigger screen. The official NDS emulator is way better and most of the library works. The Rare titles are the outliers here, unfortunately, with only Banjo-Kazooie working flawlessly (Tooie with some minor slowdowns). The compatibility isn't great but every single first party game works, alongside Mischief Makers and the Bomberman, Goemon and Castlevania games. You can inject N64 roms into the official VC emulator. This means you can use the official S/NES mini controllers! Not only you can play the games on the GamePad, but RetroArch also supports USB controllers and WiiMotes. RetroArch is available on Wii U and let you play virtually every single game released on NES, SNES, Master System, MegaDrive, PC-Engine, GB/C/A and so on.

If you buy an used Wii U for 100$ and hack it you'll get: The homebrew community turned Wii U into an amazing platform to own. Let's say it, with Switch getting more and more ports there's no reason to buy a Wii U.
