I'm seeing some cheap Wii U's, but the gamepad doesn't work. Is the gamepad necessary to use the console?

Couple of years ago 360 games that used XNA were dumped to run on Windows,like Dishwasher Vampire Smile.
XB360 would require to create a Wine equivalent instead of a traditional emulator.
Similar to XQEMU that focuses on Xbox and Sega Chihiro.
You need the gamepad for a lot of things, from starting the Wii U to using DDD to dump the games.
The disappointing Switch reveal has altered my course and I'm now buying the Wii-U version in order to enjoy this on CEMU.
Have a i7 6700K, 980Ti machine w/DDR4 so should in theory be able to spruce titles quite high (have a 1440p monitor). Might actually end up with the best version of the game.

Dang. I can get a Wii U W/o gamepad for around $100, but the gamepad itself is about $150 via eBay. Might as well get it refurbished then.
Unfortunately yes. Some moron at Nintendo decided that you need it to change the settings (internet etc.) for example. For no apparent reason. Still my biggest gripe with the console.

I imagine you'll hit the cpu limit super hard will before you'd have to worry about the final render resolution.

Great. In a good way, it's pretty deceptive about most of its strengths like the depth and amount of content there is.
I'm more curious if you can get games to at least boot, not really hopeful to have playable games on it
Edit: HOLY SHIT IT CAN RUN MARIO MAKER

Same as last version, largely unplayable. One of the few games I've tried where 4k makes a dent in the framerate.
Unplayable for what reason? Bugs or performance? (And if the latter, to what extent and on which hardware?)

A lot of specific objects causes crashes when interacting with them, crashes during certain level transitions, crashes for some stages. Very similar to the state of Tropical Freeze. Performance isn't great for many stages and this game in particular probably has the worst shader compilation times I've seen of any game.
That said, when you get to a level that runs well, it runs full speed fine

I want to play zelda on cemu so bad...no chance it'll be working at launch though.
yup, here's a direct capture from the screenshot function
Whats the shortcut for that? I tried *modifier* + print screen on a bunch of different ones and none worked.

I've a hunch that Switch will be also easily emualted in the future (17-18). I mean it runs MK8 and BotW, right?
I might be totally wrong here but anyone else thinks the same? I have no basis for this - only a feeling.

Emulators tend to be very CPU intensive, so that i3 might struggle quite a bit unfortunately.
But my brother is running Cemu on a i5 2500 with a GTX 660 Ti and claims that it's running at ~60 fps most of the time, so you should just try it out and see for yourself.
Also note that Cemu is still kinda early in its development and will still get tons of optimizations I reckon.
Okay, I'm currently dumping XCX, how much time did it took for you guys? It's averaging 850kb/s so I guess 6 hours and half considering a file size of 20Gb (no idea if it's the exact size).
How does the emulator handles the gamepad functions for the probes/map and other things like that?

Sry, but this is wrong.
The ppu was ppc, the spu's were not and the ppu also wasn't a design that existed before it.

I like how this thread popped back up thanks to the Switch event being so awful.
Can't wait to play Breath of the Wild at 4K. I can't imagine it taking more than a month or two before it's playable since this game is most certainly the one everyone wants to play.

Is anyone currently compiling shaders and uploading them somewhere? And would downloading that technically be considered piracy?( I mean, I know it wouldn't be on my country, since technically speaking even actual piracy is legal here as long as it is for personal use, but Im curious about how it would work in the US)

Pretty sure illegal just like BIOS/ FLASHROM/ ISOs. But then are save-states being shared illegal?
IANAL etc.
No one is gonna publicly link you on GAF because like stopped said it's "illegal" but there are people who already started doing it.
You're right.
Does Nintendo ban you for hacking or using the eshop while hacked?
Was looking at a homebrew guide on Gbatemp so I could dump my games.
Noticed the following section
102-280X NNID permanent ban
102-281X console permanent ban
102-282X NNID temporary ban
102-283X console temporary ban
Should I be worried or does this only happen under specific circumstances?

shift+print screen. keep in mind this only copies it to your clipboard, you still need to paste it somewhere.

How does Ninja Gaiden 3: Razors Edge work on Cemu? I really want NG on PC and this might be the first game to make it work.
Is Splatoon playable? Can Cemu use the gyro data from the DS4 to play it somehow?

That i3 will be more than fine for Cemu. The emulator isn't even using more than 2 cores. I heard its a single core emulator even.
jediyoshi
Member
Campaign is playable, performance isn't as 100% as other stable titles. No DS4 gyro support.
From the devs "Cemu already uses multiple cores. One core is always utilized 100% while the others vary. For Wii U emulation, single-core performance is more important than having many cores."
Wait until Monday. It's only out for Patreon supporters until then.
You have to donate via patreon and you'll get a license to activate it.
1.6.4 is publicly available at the Cemu homepage.
Anyone?

shift+print screen captures the full resolution image into your clipboard, you need to manually save it.
To save people from looking it up illicitly, specifically the Patreon versions (not on public) have DRM.
How's that work? You need to log in or something? I threw in a dollar since I have other stuff on my plate right but still wanted to support it.

It runs like normal, you don't do anything special. The zip you download has your specific licensed packaged. There's an online check once, but then internet isn't required.

Can it go to 8k?
I just wanna see how ridiculous those Bayonetta shots can get; those look great.

Hey jediyoshi don't know if you saw already but your Cemu videos made it into Wired UK as well: http://www.wired.co.uk/article/wii-u-cemu-emulator-4k-games
