Hey. I have a problem.

When I tried loading games on MAME Wii emulator, it says “no games found”. I even have Virtua Fighter and Sonic the Fighters zipped on the roms file. How do I fix this issue?

For the posterity as your thread is unanswered for several month :

If MAME says "No games found", just put your roms in the folder sd:/apps/mame/roms/ ;)

Yeah... just my two cents.
You guys stop using MAMEWii and SDL MAMEWii... both very old, outdated and abandoned projects.

To anyone reading this:
Use this for MAME: https://buildbot.libretro.com/stable/1.9.1/nintendo/wii/
And this for MAME2003: https://gbatemp.net/threads/mame-2003-plus.499497/
How to set-up RetroArch: https://gbatemp.net/threads/retroarch-wii-setting-it-up-mini-tutorial.590900/
PS: You can still use newer verions of RetroArch-Wii but it'll be a hit or miss thing. If you don't want headaches use and stick to RetroArch-Wii 1.9.1 at most.

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:

  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
