a bigger thing that always bothered me is that, in basically the exact same way the Wii U supports GC games, the 3DS supports GBA games through still being a DS in many ways. Nintendo even went as far as to distribute GBA games on the system, but only through the Ambassador programme for people who bought the console early; they never sold _any_ GBA games standalone on the system.
Just reiterates that they don't care at all about providing their old games to you in any reasonable way. At least there's also injection if you've homebrewed your 3DS
That bothered me as well. Basically, Nintendo with 3DS and WiiU was selling you a GameCube and a GameBoy Advance too, but they never tried to use this potential. Why, Nintendo? Why? :(
actually the 3DS is far more of a GBA than the DSi
it has an entire GBA mode, the DSi doesn't and has to run them in DS mode with mediocre compatibility
The decision for Nintendo to distribute GBA titles on the Wii U Virtual Console thing was bad enough. In fact, there's something about Satoru Iwata's statement that was written on the GBA's Wikipedia article around 9 years ago. That was on Nintendo Direct, and grammar WAS turning to real shit back then.
welcome to business
While I agree that Nintendo SHOULD have released GBA games on the 3DS, their rationale behind the decision not to is understandable. And it isn't just a lack of care or greed.
The firmware that allows GBA games to run on the 3DS doesn't enable a proper sleep mode, and due to the way the hardware and software interact, the battery drains way faster than it should. 30 minutes of playtime in GBA games uses about as much battery as 45-60 minutes of 3DS gameplay. Since you can't rely on sleep mode to save your battery either, this means the system dies way too fast. This also means the battery would need charged more often, and the constant draining and charging would wear out the battery faster, leading to shortened lifespans. There were also other features they wanted to implement to improve the user experience and add functionality, but they were unable to do so with the limitations of the hardware that allowed the 3DS to be backwards compatible with GBA software in the first place. So they decided not to move forward with it.
But, again, I still think they should have put them on the eShop and given players the opportunity to do it anyway.
Weird. A video on retro that focuses on convenience and fun factor instead of pixel sharpness!
Nice work. I’m one of these folks too.
Nintendon’t does what Nintendon’t
@@joaomlpgamingstudios2.077 Yeah
Modders does what nintendont BUT nintendoes what Sony don't
nintendoes what son't
@@blobisbackMore like Nintendoes what Sonot
Such a Good video and still boggles my mind how yeah the wii u wasnt the best of consoles but for someone who loves all of nintendos past and current games it was literally the perfect console to play basically all games other than 3DS but who knows with a matter of time maybe it will be able to as well!, but like literally it is the perfect console to get into modding and to play all of the classics and best versions of games ! Wii U had potential but aged like fine wine because of the modding scene in my opinion but i honestly do feel if they did Vitual console GameCube it wouldve done way better maybe and probably had more interest into the console if they tried to make it a all nintendo hub type console kinda what the switch is doing now but like without the nintendo online. anyways enough rambling 10/10 Awesome vid! keep it up bro!
Funny thing is, I played Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes on my Wii U for the first time and now I am a Metal Gear fan lol
I hacked my Wii U earlier this year and it's pretty cool; I just wish I could play with the Gamepad because I only have like some pretty bad third party GameCube controllers and some of the buttons don't work that good on them
Nice video! Really enjoyed it!
Homebrew does what Nintendon't - on the Wii, too :D
The only real downside to this is that there is no way to use GBA connectivity since the adapter, as far as I know, cannot support it. That's really the primary reason to still play Gamecube games on Wii or original hardware at this point, and if it weren't for that, I'd totally use my Wii U for that.
Also, I like the Game Boy Player.
Is it possible to play GC games in multiplayer with the pro controller ?
i heard you can use a wii pro controller not the wii u pro controller
Yes it is, with the Wii U Pro Controller(s)
yes you can
Question: Can you use pro controller or gamepad for the virtual console injection method?
Yes either or (youll need a Wiimote for the Pro Controller to use it but after turning it on, you dont need it anymore)
Gotcha! @@ssj99gohanisthebest48
When setting them up this way as injected channels, is it possible to use the wiimote or we you pro controller for GameCube games?
Personally I would insist getting a GameCube controller adapter and a real GameCube controller. The VC Injector page says Wiimote emulation, and classic controller emulation. Not sure what that exactly means though.
gbatemp.net/threads/release-wiivc-injector-script-gc-wii-homebrew-support.483577/
you can use the Wii U Pro Controller as a controller but you need a wiimote as a workaround to select "no" on the option to use Gamepad and selecting "TV mode" (or tv/gamepad mode if you want that), then once the game boots up, turn on the Wii U Pro Controller and itll be used instead of the gamepad and wiimote, the wiimote will shut off too. If you have more Wii U Pro Controllers, you can turn those on afterwards for multiplayer. If you wanna use the Gamepad and the Pro Controller as a 2nd player, just launch the game and then turn on the Pro Controller after the game boots.
@@Mr.Welbigthose mean customizing your Wii injections to use the Gamepad as such either a Wiimote (No motion control) or as a Wii Classic Controller, some games have Classic Controller support like some fighting games (DBZ BT3 comes to mind) and injecting them this way allows you to play them using the Gamepad.
I’m pretty new to this, and I see lots of questions (normally 2 years old+) about the Vc gamcubes not saving. Has this been fixed? I imagine it has since I didn’t hear you talk about it!
The solution I'm aware of is a setting in Nintendont called "Memcard Emulation" which has to be enabled so that Nintendont can set up a virtual memory card for your games. I didn't really mention it since I wasn't aware it was still a problem for so many. I haven't had any issues with GCN games not saving.
Hope that helps!!
@@Mr.Welbig thanks I just did my first injection w double dash, did a time trial and saved, closed it n reopened and my data was there! Hopefully after a power down and up there’s no worries! Ty for this video! Cheers bud
I cannot save GC injections. Please help
Does anyone experience stick drift on the GameCube adapter. This only happens on Wii U but it works perfectly on everything else
Is it possible to use ps4 controller in nintendont on wii u?
Is there any way to change the resolution to 1080p for GameCube games on the menu before launching?
Surely this way they would look crisp?
Unfortunately the Wii U will always render Wii and GameCube games at 480p and then scale it to whatever resolution your TV is. Best thing to do is leave your Wii U at 1080p. The games will still technically be 480p, but to me they look just fine. If you want a higher rendering resolution then I'm afraid your only real option is the Dolphin emulator on a good PC.
The Wii U's vWii mode is basically a native Wii running. If the Wii can't upscale GC games, then vWii can't as well.
just use an upscaler with the Wii U for that
I have instaled Resident Evil 2 but can’t save the game. Please help
Have you tried going into Nintendon't and enabling the "MemCard" option?
@@Mr.WelbigYes and it seems this config must be saved on SD card :) Thanks a lot!
I already have I just have Mario kart double dash and a bunch of free Wii U you games
can u edit contorl inputs
7:00 Bullshit. Sunshine looks a ton better on the gamecube with component than on the wii u.
how do you quit games and get back to nintendont?
I'm not too sure, I think you'd have to just reset the console. With VC Injection there's a button combo of L:R:Z:Start to boot out of the game and back into the Wii U menu.
Hey what u show about the gamecube games on the wii u menu its gonna come out just like that when u download nintendon't and also can i download n64 games using that websites and whats the biggest number of the sd card i need to use to order for me to download the games i like and is it safe its not gonne break my wii u? Oh and also can i play mulitiplayer games with gamecubes and n64 emulations and what controllers do i use to play?
32 Gigabyte SD Card is perfect, but you’d need to format it to FAT32. Generally, no; with GameCube emulation you cannot do multiplayer, whether it be with controllers or online as the Wii U does not have GameCube controller ports. Hope this helped!
@@purploid multiplayer does work
1 - any size smaller than 2 TBs formatted to FAT32 but honestly 32-64 GBs is perfect, the games would be installed to a HDD with a usb y cable anyways so the card shouldnt be that huge anyways
2 - UWUVCI, the better injection program, can do other consolers as well as N64
3 - it can do multiplayer with Wii U Pro Controller (s) and/or the GamePad
Can you just run GC games through USB loader GX the same way it works on a Wii?
Maybe? I'm honestly not sure. I've only ever used USB Loader GX on an OG Wii for Wii backups. Even if you could on Wii U I would still probably prefer using Virtual Console Injection.
@@Mr.Welbig I don't have a Wii U but plan on buying one soon. I'll probably do a mix of both injects and USB loader GX. I like the injects but currently have around 200 GC games on my Wii so might just inject the main 30 games or so
No, you need Nintendon't. I tried it. But Nintendon't works in a Wii U and a Wii. So, if you have one hard drive for both for some reason like me...
is this possible on mac?
This is a video for Wii U. If you want to play Gamecube on Mac you need to install the Dolphin Emulator. But it's optimized for Windows afaik. Maybe you need to install Windows over Bootcamp and the Dolphin Windows version for better compatibility. But maybe you just should use a Windows machine then because a Mac is just terrible for emulation or gaming because the cooling is the worst.
@@adrenaliner91 thank u but that’s not wut it meant n i figured out my problem already. thanks again tho
Guys, I have come to ask you for urgent help, since it is an exclusive game from Japan, which is *Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 3* and I am trying to save the games on the story mode, and it even already has the (Memory Card Emulation) activated. . But not even with that does he manage to save the game, and it's a problem that I still don't understand why it happens, if someone knows how to solve this, I'll be very grateful hommies. 🙏😟😃👍
The problem might just be specific to the game. You should try some other games and see if saving is broken on every game.
@@maaki50 In fact I already solved this problem 3 weeks ago, I just had to go to Game Settings (japanese), and change to Save Automatic, but still thank you very much for responding to my friend comment. 😃👍
@@mikeva4756 Yeah solutions in emulation are usually fairly simple
I get not teaching noobs how to hack, but jesus.......How much can you ramble and then not even explain how to get the channel loader on the wii U menu to avoid the tedious vWii Nintendont process?
JUST BUY A FRICKING GAMECUBE DISK
Why?
Any Mario game is $60+. Just about any GameCube game is $30. That adds up.
No. GameCube games are expensive af. Just pirate.
