I've been using an external hard drive for playing games on Nintendont through the vWii. The issue is I can't multipurpose the drive for both Nintendont and storing games from Nusspli. I can only have one hard drive attached at a time, so would the best thing to do be to move the Wii/Gamecube ROMs to the SD card and re-purpose the external hard drive for playing Wii U games? Would there be a performance drop on Nintendont playing games off of the SD compared to an external hard drive? I'm just trying to figure out the best way to have both.

The best speed is on the HDD drive, gamecube on sd is a bit slower but perfectly fine.
I have all my games on 2 HDD, one for gamecube/Wii/WiiU loadiine (hdd fat32) games, as far as I remember, loaders still don't support Ntfs, and the other (formatted partition wiiu) for some wiiU games, that is the best set.
I have also many games on my nand, I have multiple wiiu games (wup format ) for the speed and putting wiiware-WiiUware /forwarders on them.

Ah, so it is possible to do all 3 but only through WiiU loadiine. Do you have to interchange the two hard drives? From what I remember, it can only power one hard drive with a Y-Cable.
Why not? Just inject the GCN games and install them with NUSspli.
I'm unfortunately not a big fan of injects. I have a ton of ROM Hacks and other titles, it's just much easier to boot into to Nintendont to play them.

As you said, it's only one at the time and loadiine uses SD, as far as I know, you cannot put "all" on the HD (at the moment for sure), if would be nice if possible. I think like many, I use loadiine for launching Ds title too.

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol

    You can stretch to fit probably it's not all bad that they make it seem to be
