WiiSXR is a fork of the popular WiiSX emulator, which has been inactive for some time. The development of this fork is led by a developer known as Mystro256, who has made significant progress in recent days. Fans of the emulator are excited to see what new features and improvements will be included in this fork.

One of the most highly anticipated changes is the addition of GX accelerated graphics, which will provide a more immersive and visually stunning gaming experience. Additionally, the developer plans to implement proper audio plugin support and a new GUI. However, the developer has stated that the codebase is in need of a serious rewrite as it is quite broken.

Furthermore, Mystro256 plans to port as much code and optimization as possible to the Wii, which will likely lead to significant improvements in performance and compatibility.

Quick Usage

• ISOs can be .bin/.cue (Make sure .cue contains _relative_ directory!), .img, or .iso format
• To install: Extract the contents of wiiSXR-beta2.2.zip to the root of your SD card
• For SD/USB: Put ISOs (.bin/.cue or other formats) in the directory named /wiisxr/isos,
  • All save types will automatically be placed in /wiisxr/saves
• For DVD: ISOs may be anywhere on the disc (requires DVDxV2 on Wii)
• For actual BIOS: Put SCPH1001.BIN in the directory on SD/USB named /wiisxr/bios
• Load the executable from the HBC or in the loader of your choice
  • Once loaded, select 'Load ISO' and choose the source and select the ISO to load (Note: to go up a directory select '..', B will exit the file browser)
• Select 'Play Game' to play
  • The game can be exited any time by pressing a configurable key combination together on a GC pad (START & X), Classic Controller (HOME), Wiimote (- & +), Wiimote+Nunchuck (1 & 2), or the reset button (Note: this must be done to save your game; it will not be done automatically).
