Some Nintendo 64 games injected as Wii VC games that emulates (uses) the Expansion Pak... Yay :D

Hello world of GBAtemp!

Welcome back to saulfabreg Wii VC, and this awesome world of Wii!

Here in this new blog post I will show you my first iNJECTED Nintendo 64 Wii VC games which use the Expansion Pak accessory that was launched in year 1999, by doing the procedure shown in this thread https://gbatemp.net/threads/n64-expansion-pak-emulation-on-wii-vc-8-mb-of-ram-on-n64-vc.584066/ you can also make some of your favorite N64 games injected on Wii Virtual Console WADs use the extended RAM of the Expansion Pak (4 MB of principal N64 RAM + extra 4 MB of RAM from Expansion Pak = 8 MB of N64 RAM)!

My thoughts are exactly this:

Nintendo should've hired you back in 2006.

:bow:


On a more serious note and probably a reasonable question:
What games can a user inject onto which wads?

Yea, it would be really useful if there's like a compatibility list of which games does work and on which VC titles..
