A WIP NES emulator for Wii U consoles running under firmware 5.5.0/5.5.1, based off LiteNES.

It uses code from libwiiu and the 5.5.x ELF loader.

Note: No longer active.

User guide

How to use:

  • Install devKitPPC and set the DEVKITPPC environment variable to the devKitPPC path (excluding the bin folder).
  • Run make to generate boot.elf in the project's root directory.
  • Ensure an iNES ROM named play.nes is in the same directory as the ELF.
  • The ELF loader should recognize boot.elf on a 5.5.x Wii U.

Example setup:

  • Loader: http://webhost/u/payload/my_payload_file.php
  • ELF: http://webhost/u/payload/boot.elf
  • NES ROM: http://webhost/u/payload/play.nes

Notes:

  • This is not a Virtual Console replacement.
  • Primarily for developers.
  • Lacks sound.
  • Supports only one player.
  • May crash upon exit.
  • Performance is notably slow; refer to the TODO for potential improvements.
  • Limited ROM compatibility; only tested with Yie-Ar Kung Fu (working) and Super Mario Bros.
  • Encounters RAM corruption issues affecting Super Mario gameplay.
