- Copy your GameCube games to the /games/ directory. Subdirectories are optional for games in ISO/GCM and CISO format with one disc.
- For games with two discs, create a subdirectory named /games/MYGAME/ (where MYGAME can be anything), and name the first disc as "game.iso" and the second disc as "disc2.iso".
- For extracted FST format, the FST must be located in a subdirectory, for example, /games/FSTgame/sys/boot.bin.
- Connect your storage device to your Wii or Wii U and launch The Homebrew Channel.
- Select Nintendont to run the game.
Please note: Nintendont has almost 100% compatibility. You can find the compatibility list on the Wiki.
