This is an updated version of MAME Wii 1.0 (a port of MAME 0.134u4 for the Nintendo Wii) made originally by ToadKing.

The new release includes enhanced Wiimote support, compatibility with WiiFlow plugins, and a higher ROM limit. Although it is primarily designed for use with the MAME 0.134u4 ROMset, it should also be compatible with some ROMs from the newer 0.139u1 release.

Features

• Compiled with devkitPPC r26 / libOGC 1.8.16 / some updated portlibs, this arcade emulator now can accept newer Wiimotes (the Wii Remote Plus ones).
• Fixed one thing in the code (PAL574 to PAL576 variable) for be able to compile on devkitPPC r26 (based on niuus' quick fix he made for compile Descent-Wii).
• Increased ROM limit number from 150 to 10000 (thanks DarkMatterCore for help with that).
• WiiFlow plugin support (thanks Wiimpathy).
