• If you wish to use one, download the English + No DRM BS-X ROM here.

User guide

Loading games from DVD

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

Loading games from Network

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.

Button Mappings

Once in the Button Mappings settings menu you'll have the option to pick to configure the SNES Controller, Super Scope, SNES Mouse and the Justifier.

Once you select a controller to configure you will be presented with which input device you would like to configure. To set the button simply click on the input device you wish to use and then pick the button you wish to map.

Cheats

By default, cheats are loaded from /snes9xgx/cheats/.

Cheat files must be placed in the cheats folder and named identically to the ROM name, except with a CHT extension.

After putting the cheat file in the proper place and naming it correctly, you can access cheats in-game by pressing Home after loading a game.

A Cheats menu option should be available.

Language patches (IPS/UPS)

IPS files must be placed in the same folder as the ROM you are loading, and named identically to the ROM name, except with a IPS extension.

They will be loaded automatically upon loading the game.
