Some bugs may be present, but overall, it's a playable experience.

Changes for Wii Port:

Adapted the original game's binary assets to work on the Wii's big endian CPU architecture.

Installation

Note: You will need to get the original PC game on your own to obtain the assets like graphics and sound effects. Those are not provided.

Copy .dol file:

Rename SpaceCadetPinball.dol to boot.dol.
Copy boot.dol to apps/SpaceCadetPinball/ on your SD card.

Since this port doesn't play MIDI files, convert the music to OGG format. Ensure the music has a sample rate no higher than 44100Hz.

If all steps are successful, you should see the game in your Homebrew Channel and be able to run it.

Running Windows Space Cadet Pinball on the Nintendo Wii (Michael MJD)

v0.3

Fixed endianness issues that would break Full Tilt compatibility. Now the Space Cadet table from Full Tilt can be played.
Make text a bit more fitting for the wii by @korbosoft.
Print some errors on screen to better indicate possible failures.

v0.2

The game now loads the good font that's embedded in pinball.exe.
In case that font is not available, the one in PINBALL2.MID is scaled down and has the same color palette as the other font, so it fits better and it's more readable.
Also deleted the font that was included in EmbeddedData.cpp.
