Okay, you really are the best. I’ve recently gotten into the whole modding/emulation scene with Nintendo consoles and you’ve been beyond helpful with just about anything I could possibly attempt or even think of. Especially when I’m someone who is absolute shit with computers and can’t tell my ass from my face when it comes to technology. Thank you, Scott.
One thing u should do before start any emulator is create their portable app version. For dolphin just create a txt file named (portable) inside its folder it will make dolphin creates all its files inside its own folder instead of using the %appdata% folder. it makes things more organized and easier for troubleshoot. all emulators has this. Congratz on the 40K !
Hey scott! Cool to see a dolphin guide. I will say, you can use your keyboard for the games but if you need to do actions fast like ground pounding in DKC Returns then you need to map the shake input to multiple keys. 3 usually works best
i would do auto, not force 16:9. force 16:9 doesnt render gamecube games in 16:9, it just streches the 4:3 image into 16:9. if you do auto, the wii games will be the 16:9, but the gamecube games will stay the proper 4:3
For anyone having a problem trying to write data on the virtual card, make sure you run dolphin on administrator or else you will likely receive an error
So I was watching your guide to home brew on the Wii, and was wondering. I have a game that I love a lot, but little me decided to not take care of it and now, coming back to play the game I suffer from the unable to read disc. My question is if I back up the game will I be able to play it and it will continue to save my progress in the game or is it strictly a back up? Also love the videos.
@@Raincloudblue I had the same problem, I uninstalled it and instead of opening the file and then extracting, i just right clicked it and extracted it from there and then it worked.
I have the latest Dolphin emulator and a Dolphin bar. Everything is set up, but when I go into a game, it'll detect the remote movement, but not the button pushes. I've tried with real Wii remotes and off name brand, both have the motion plus built in. Because it doesn't detect button pushes (Yes, I mapped them) I can't play any of the games. Any ideas on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Hey man, for some reason in Sonic Colors, the start (+) button doesn’t work while all the others do when mapped on my keyboard, is there a way to fix this!
I’m using Dolphin 5.0 and there doesn’t seem to be an option for grid view. There is no grid or list view option. It’s defaulted to list view and I can’t see how to change it.
FunkyScott? Could you create a video where you show how to unbrick/restore certain games and channels on vWii for Wii U? I accidentally bricked the Homebrew channel on mine.
I connected my wii pressing 1 and 2 and turned on my Wii u after connecting my real wii to dolphin but I can't get the arrows to work, even though the sensor bar is connected to the Wii U, I tried everything but nothing worked, any idea to fix that?
Does it matter which version of dolphin you use for the Wii sensor bar and the controller because I’m using the latest version of dolphin and I’m thinking of purchasing a mayflash Dolphinbar for this emulator??
Nope, version shouldn't matter! And the mayflash is the expensive one. I spent less than half to get a usb wired one and it works great, but up to you of course!
Personally for me it doesnt recognise the super smash bros melee rom I downloaded from romsgames. How do i fix that for should i download it from a diffrent site?
um i didnt work for whenever i used the used the zip to make a file or whatever it just showed me only the original file can anyone tell me what i did wrong
I want to buy wii controller , but i don't have bluetooth on my pc. So if I buy bluetooth adapter for pc will work ? and is any specific to choose? thanks in advance
yo do you have any ideas for a fix to this? I followed your vwii guide and everything was exactly perfect until it was time to use the compat Installer, when booting it up, it just stays on the thumbnail screen forever, forcing me to just turn it off and on again. Everything looks fine (as in everything in the sd card) but it just wont work, are there other methods?
is it an OEM remote? I've certainly struggled to connect them before and had to keep playing with the different ways. Also make sure you have "real wiimote" selected and not emulated wiimote
@@funkyscott47 I tried a different remote and it is working way better. Have had the first one I tried since the original Wii came out and it’s probably on its last legs.
How do you get the save data from your wii onto the Emulator? For example I was playing twilight princess on the wii but now i want to play on the emulator, how do i get my save data to be on the emulator?
Using emulation can be alot easier than setting up a capture card! And saves time but if you use emulation make sure you have the disc for your game because your suppose to dump your owned copy of the game into the emulator and ONLY use it for personal use, NOTHING ELSE
FunkyScott? Could you create a video about "How to restore your Wii U's Nand, to save it!"? My cousin's Wii U got bricked because of the Hardware failure!!
when i connect my controler in the config menu its seen and funcitons normal but when i try and use it in super mario and mario party 8 no good any tips?
using USB Loader GX if you have a physical copy of a game you want to use on dolphin go on your Wii and open USB loader then put the game you want to turn to digital in your Wii there should be a text prompt asking if you want to download the game on USB loader if not click the plus button at the bottom left corner and the prompt will ask you to download the game once done you can power off the Wii take out your SD card or usb depending on where you keep your game for the loader plug it into your computer and open your folder where you put your games then you should see a folder with the game name and title id copy the game folder to the folder you have games for dolphin go into dolphin select the folder and the games should load hope this helps.
Hey, Im modding my old 2ds with the sound hax method, now there are new files (finalizing), after i downloaded them I didnt receive gm9 and now I can't open it. Can you please help me🙏

For connecting your Wii remote to dolphin for a sensor bar you can also use two candles if you are wild 😂👍
Congrats on 40K
Thanks funky. You basically freaking saved my sanity
Thank u bro, easy setup. Love the discord group too ❤
Hey scott! Cool to see a dolphin guide. I will say, you can use your keyboard for the games but if you need to do actions fast like ground pounding in DKC Returns then you need to map the shake input to multiple keys. 3 usually works best
Thanks!!! My brother broke my Mario Wii game when were young and never got to play it ever since 😭 19 now and finally can experience peak
I'm glad you can play it again!! :D
You have helped me with many things from 3ds to Wii to U you have done it here is a star of my appreciation 🌟
No, thank you so much. I never thought I would be able to do this.!
So ein Ehrenmann! nice job dude grettings from germany !
so, I download the file from dolphin but instead of being an actual file. it's a microsoft edge redirect to a blank white page? What am I doing wrong?
So i downloaded it and it isnt showing up as Dolphin Master. It just shows up as a compressed zip file. What do I do?
Right click and extract
this was super helpful, thanks a ton man!!
Thank you SO much for this updated video!
i would do auto, not force 16:9. force 16:9 doesnt render gamecube games in 16:9, it just streches the 4:3 image into 16:9. if you do auto, the wii games will be the 16:9, but the gamecube games will stay the proper 4:3
This video is super helpful. The information is easy to follow and useful. Able to get Dolphin up and running easily, thank you!

If you want to get your save data, check out my video on save manager gx! Backing up your game won't include the save data, only the game
@@funkyscott47 amazing thank you for the guidance
it doesn't work should i need a bluetooth?(wii controller step)
yes you need bluetooth for wii remotes
You left out a HUGE step! Where do we download the games???!!!
Cdromance or myrient
Have you figured it out? Lemme know if you do pls
it wont let me open the dolphin.exe folder
same here were you able to figure it out?
@@Raincloudblue I had the same problem, I uninstalled it and instead of opening the file and then extracting, i just right clicked it and extracted it from there and then it worked.
@@tylerconner8174how so ? it won’t let me open it how can i extract them?
Try the visual c++ link on the dolphin emulator site
@@ks4423 what does that do ??
Great video, thanks!!
Once I install the program to use a real GameCube controller, does it work with retroarch? Or is it just for dolphin
I can't believe that funky got 40k subs a year after the 10k special giveaway. This shows so much this channels grown 🎉
Thank you Eli! It's been quite the journey :)
why if i openm my dolphin it doesnt open?
what do you mean by that?
You helped me so much on the DSI home brew guide! Do you think you could do a video on getting the H Shop on a DSI?
very easy to follow and a lot of good info. You gained a new sub! much thx!
where do you download your gamecube games?
You should also know that you don't want to update dolphin, or you might lose your data, so only update if you know what you're doing
What about using the Bluetooth pass through? It’s the accurate for Wii emulator on native controllers, and it has accurate Wii speakers.
finally! this is exactly what I needed!
W youtuber. btw congrats on 40k
thank you!

Great video!! I would like to see a start to finish install of Batocera on a microsd for the steam deck.
Hey man, for some reason in Sonic Colors, the start (+) button doesn’t work while all the others do when mapped on my keyboard, is there a way to fix this!
theres no dolphin x64 zip file in the winrar
Hey! I was just going to try to install the Nuspli channel on my Wii U so is there anyway on how to do it?
Scott we need 47 thousand subs since you made it to 40K yay
When using a real Wii remote, do I need a motion plus to play games that need it?
I’m using Dolphin 5.0 and there doesn’t seem to be an option for grid view. There is no grid or list view option. It’s defaulted to list view and I can’t see how to change it.
if it doesn't work then u need to download a older version of dolphin try download the newest one though
Funkyscott congratulations on 40K! Also a good title for this video could be how to call the Nintendo Ninjas lol yo
Gg for 40k!
Thank you!
I keep getting a dolphin system error can you help?
thanks bro it helps 👌👌
So my Wii remote won't work and it splits into two screens when I boot up a game
Thanks now i can play rhytm heaven again
Good video wonder if you fan do a tutorial on Project M Hackless
Can you show the list of TV remote compatibility on the Wii U?
FunkyScott? Could you create a video where you show how to unbrick/restore certain games and channels on vWii for Wii U? I accidentally bricked the Homebrew channel on mine.
What bluetooth version are you using?
I connected my wii pressing 1 and 2 and turned on my Wii u after connecting my real wii to dolphin but I can't get the arrows to work, even though the sensor bar is connected to the Wii U, I tried everything but nothing worked, any idea to fix that?
Is there a guide to return your Wii U back to pre-hacked?
Can i just use switch controlers?
Does it matter which version of dolphin you use for the Wii sensor bar and the controller because I’m using the latest version of dolphin and I’m thinking of purchasing a mayflash Dolphinbar for this emulator??

If it's an OEM wiimote just keep trying as it can be finicky. As for third party remotes, some may not work
Congratulations on 40k
Thank you :D
Love the vids
Can you maybe show how to homebrew the dolphin emulator? think it would be pretty cool
