Oh man the WiiU. That reminds me I still need to play WindWakerHD. It's been eons since I've turned mine on xD

You should also install custom firmware into your Wii U to make the most out of its hardware with emulators, ROM hacks, Pretendo Network, RiiConnect24/Wiimmfi in the virtual Wii mode, and heck, even installing Linux in an SD card if you ever feel like it!

And as for the custom firmware guide, follow wiiu.hacks.guide, and NEVER follow YouTube tutorials, as they're often out of date and straight up incorrect most of the time.

What is the Wii U running?

[–] Megapixel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's running the Aroma custom firmware, and as for Linux, I haven't tried running it in the Wii U (yet).

If you find a way to get Linux and then suzu on wiiu, you'll have it all.

It's a Nintendo Switch emulator. I think it's a fork of Yuzu which was the first emulator.

[–] Megapixel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You mean suyu then, not suzu, and there's no suyu for the Wii U as the Switch has an ARM CPU, and the Wii U is PowerPC. I already have a Switch though (it's running Kubuntu btw) and I may try a Switch emulator on this ThinkPad with the integrated graphics or my Android phone (Google Pixel 7a) someday...

[–] Cosmonaut_Collin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh shoot you're right about it being suyu. Although I'm pretty sure the wiiu has better processing power than the switch, so if there was some way to utilize the hardware of the wiiu to run switch games it would be a smoother experience.

[–] Megapixel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago

Maybe... I don't have enough info to know if it's possible... also keep in mind that some Switch games were already available on Wii U though (Mario Kart 8, New Super Mario Bros. U, Super Mario 3D World, etc.)
