FCE Ultra GX is a port of FCE Ultra. With it you can play NES games on your Wii/GameCube.

Features

  • Wiimote, Nunchuk, Classic, Wii U Pro, and GameCube controller support.
  • Wii U GamePad support (requires homebrew injection into Wii U VC title).
  • iNES, FDS, VS, UNIF, and NSF ROM support.
  • 1-4 Player Support.
  • NES Zapper support.
  • Auto Load/Save Game States and RAM.
  • Custom controller configurations.
  • SD, SDHC, USB, DVD, SMB, Zip, and 7z support.
  • 16:9 widescreen support.
  • Original/filtered/unfiltered video modes.
  • Turbo Mode - up to 2x the normal speed.
  • Cheat support (.CHT files and Game Genie).
  • Famicom 3D System support.
  • IPS/UPS automatic patching support.
  • NES Compatibility Based on FCEUX 2.2.3+ (git 21c0971).
  • Open Source.

Installation

If you are using the Homebrew Channel just copy the apps directory from the archive to the root of your SD card.

By default, roms are loaded from fceugx/roms/ and saves or preferences are stored in fceugx/saves/.

You can load roms from SD card (Front SD or SD Gecko), USB, DVD, or SMB share. Note that if you are using the Homebrew Channel, to load from USB, DVD, or SMB you will first have to load FCEUGX from SD, and then set your load method preference.

If you are planning to use your Network (LAN) to load and/or save games from you will need to enter in the SMB share settings you haveve setup on your computer via the Settings menu. You will need to enter in the SMB Share IP, Share Name, Share Username and Share Password.

Channel installer

This channel requires IOS58. You must have Wifi access on your Wii (to run IOS58 Installer) or a Game Disc with System Menu 4.3. If you do not have a Game Disc to update to System Menu 4.3 or Wifi access on your Wii, you can use the PC program NUS Downloader to download IOS58 to your computer, then install offline on your Wii.

You must have Homebrew Channel 1.0.8+ running on IOS58 to run the installer. If HBC is not using IOS58, reinstall it. This channel tries load apps/fceugx/boot.dol from SD or USB. You must have FCE Ultra GX installed in one of these locations.

User guide

Loading game from DVD

ROMs can be burned to a DVD-/+R (4.7GB max size & ISO 9660 file format).

Loading game via SMB

Using the emulator via network requires that your Wii is configured for your wireless network, and that you've set up a file share. You must provide a username, password, share name, and IP address to log in to the file server (in settings.xml). This XML file is created for you upon first loading the emulator and entering/exiting Preferences. Here's an example snippet for your XML configuration file:

<section name="Network" description="Network Settings">
   <setting name="smbip" value="192.168.4.19" description="Share Computer IP" />
   <setting name="smbshare" value="wiifiles" description="Share Name" />
   <setting name="smbuser" value="yourusername" description="Share Username" />
   <setting name="smbpwd" value="yourpassword" description="Share Password" />
</section>

Also be sure to mirror the required directory structure within your share folder, or change the LoadFolder and SaveFolder values in the XML file. See the tinysmb page for additional information and troubleshooting.
