Introduction
FCE Ultra GX is a modified port of the FCE Ultra 0.98.12 Nintendo Entertainment system for x86 (Windows/Linux) PC's. With it you can play NES games on your Wii/GameCube. Version 2 is a complete rewrite based on code from SNES9x GX.
Installation
- If you are using the Homebrew Channel just copy the apps directory from the archive to the root of your SD card.
- ROMs & saves files should be stored in fceugx/roms and fceugx/saves on the root of you SD card, USB flash drive, or SMB share. You can copy the fceugx directory from the archive to your support drive.
- Launch the emulator using your Loader.
Loading Games
From DVD
- ROMs can be burned to a DVD-/+R (4.7GB max size & ISO 9660 file format) but you need to install DVDx on your Wii.
From Network (via SMB)
Using the emulator via network requires that your Wii is configured for your wireless network, and that you've set up a file share. Tutorials for setting up a file share in Windows XP and Windows Vista are available. Using SMB support requires that you provide a username, password, share name, and IP address to log in to the file server (in settings.xml). This XML file is created for you upon first loading the emulator and entering/exiting Preferences. Here's an example snippet for your XML configuration file:
<section name="Network" description="Network Settings"> <setting name="smbip" value="192.168.4.19" description="Share Computer IP" /> <setting name="smbshare" value="wiifiles" description="Share Name" /> <setting name="smbuser" value="yourusername" description="Share Username" /> <setting name="smbpwd" value="yourpassword" description="Share Password" /> </section>
Also be sure to mirror the required directory structure within your share folder, or change the LoadFolder and SaveFolder values in the XML file.
Vista Support
tinysmb, the library that the emulator uses, only support LM hash authentication, and not the newer NTLM. By default, LM hash support is disabled in Windows Vista. To re-enable LM hashes, and get tinysmb to work on Vista:
- load Group Policy Editor - gpedit.msc
- go to Computer Configuration > Local Policies > Security Options
- change "Network security: Do not store LAN Manager hash value on next password change" to Disabled
- change your password at least once to generate a LM hash
FDS Games
To be able to load FDS games, FCE Ultra GX need the FDS BIOS. Put it in your roms folder, and name it disksys.rom (should be 8 KB in size).
You can switch disks using the A button (by default). The mapped button can be changed under Controller Configuration ('Special' button).
Compatibility is limited, so check that the game in question works on FCE Ultra 0.98.12 for Windows before asking for help.

Took Vicious1988's version, gutted the menu, and tweaked all around. Now load from any directory on SD file. SRAM saves are automatic. Take screenshots to PNG format. Works with GameCube pads and Wiimotes. Long file names for ROMs are not supported natively.

New version with nicer menu, classic controller + nunchuk, use IR as zapper, new scaler (but not as nice as GX...), sort of half-way complete:

Mike Tyson's Jungle Beat is a NES-emulator that enables you to play Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! using the the Gamecube DK Bongos.
Controls
Each bongo has a top and a bottom button. These naturally correspond to high and low punch. To dodge, clap. To use your star punch (or to "Press Start"), hit both top buttons. To block, hold the start button on the bongos.
Files
Download mtjb.zip to get started! mtjb.diff is the patch from the SVN trunk as of today (June 27, 2008). The hack is pretty straightforward, so it's not very large. InjectorSrc.zip is the source code for the injector program, in case someone wanted to compile a Mac version or something.
