Finally got a working Wii! What's better to first try out (besides GameCube games) than a port of a modern game? To play for yourself: github.com/Mef... Links to other things of mine: linktr.ee/mdtr...
Sega Saturn would be a better option. But even though the game is decompiled, the code simply can't run on the Saturn so it would have to be rewritten or converted to C. And then all the assets need to be compressed to fit on a 700MB disc.
And the Xbox 360 as well as PS3 too! Considering how powerful they are, more powerful than the Wii, and if the Wii can run it, then so can these two consoles!
@@krashplays3211I mean if sonic generations, unleashed, and the Sonic CD 2011 remaster can run on them sonic mania probably can too Edit: after all the Sonic CD 2011 remake uses the retro engine the same engine Mania uses.
@@genderedgirl the reason they ran bad in older versions is because before, they weren't programmed to take advantage of the wii's graphics hardware whereas now they do instead of relying entirely on the cpu.
I'm certain that I am not the only person that will make the obvious "Sonic the Hedgehog Mania: Several Wills" joke, given how the many Frametime Spikes and Eleven Second load times will remind many of Several Wills (2006/2007 Game)'s loading when being played from a Hard Drive, USB Flash, or SSD; it would be nice to know what a CPU Overclock will do to the ability for this port (along with the other RSDK Decomps on the Wii) to play, it is presently stuck in Bootable status on Dolphin and thus I cannot do any proper checks on this (yet), wishfully an OC will alleviate some of the burden of having to wait for the zones to load and maybe even help with optimizing the Framerate Consistency of the Special Stages so that they don't witness this level of dipping so frequently.
I would download this, if I wasn't still looking around for my wii SD card which has all my homebrew files on it. Sonic Mania is the next Doom. I also know Doon was written with old code making it so accessible, but I still wonder how is the most ported and accessible video game a 3D game. Strange to me, but probably has a good reason behind it.
hey so quick question, i have installed this and when i load up the games the wii just freezes on the mod loading done screen is there any way to fix this?
Ain’t no way a game with sonic R models as it’s most heavy asset can cause the WII to lag, if anything, this game should be running like normal just with a lower resolution.
@@MDTravisYT I wouldn't mind to have that disabled as long as I can see the track the rings, the blue spheres and the UFO. If they can keep an element or two that would be fine, but I mean, we all just need the chaos emerald.
I mean it’s not hard to run ps1 graphics when the console is way better than a ps1 I feel like a bit of work on what needs to be rendered would make it fully runnable
I did, but nothing works. I'm probably doing it all completely wrong and I'm just stupid, I mean I only hacked my Wii not even a week ago but I still know how to put the homebrew channel in, newer Mario bros, stuff like that. But when it comes to ANYTHING sonic, I'm out of luck
@@MDTravisYT Like is there some step by step instructions I'm missing? Cus I swear I'm following every instruction I'm given. Is there a very extremely specific rsdk I should get?

at this rate, we need Sonic Mania on the original PlayStation!
Sega Saturn would be a better option.

Someone already ported it to the PS3 and I think it runs a bit better than the Wii, though likely still isn't optimized.@@krashplays3211
@@krashplays3211 I thought a PS3 port existed already, though I haven't looked for one.

The game does run well, and I like that, but DAMN those loading times are insane
06 moment.
@@AnimatorChris430true
God have you seen the special stages
and the Special Stages are basically your average Sonic 1 GBA playthrough
3:43 there is no way in hell the special stages run that well now
last i checked i could've sworn they ran at like 15fps or some shit
Real. I've got the game on my Wii and the special stages run like shit. Dude must have contacted the dark lord to make some shit happen.
@@genderedgirl the reason they ran bad in older versions is because before, they weren't programmed to take advantage of the wii's graphics hardware whereas now they do instead of relying entirely on the cpu.
@@CrashFan03 I know what I'm playing Sonic Mania on!
@@genderedgirl i played it this month and it was fine idk
its basically the CPU (like Sonic 1 on the GBA (ew.) now that i think about it)
I’m just happy to see a 2017 game run on the original Wii. Makes me happy.
I think Ive just noticed how old the Wii actually is
That’s his display. Not the wiis problem
Yeah, and this game can also be on Wii U too.
this is so awesome keep up the good work
it should be obvious by the description that i didn't create this homebrew
Now we need Sonic Mania on PS2.
apparently it'd take a LOT of work since the software library that mania uses isnt supported on ps2 or something like that
@@CrashFan03mania's engine wasn't supported by the wii and it still happened
@@mattyaeroaerodynamix7443 engine and software library are two different things
It depends on if the cpu is strong enough to run the game
They made RSDKv5 on Windows 9x.
I could totally see this being WiiWare if it was more optimized for the system and all of it's 88 MB of RAM
Im still waiting for the Dreamcast port... 😔💀
The only way to play it
I think someone is making that
@@Chica6614 yeah, i saw something on twitter 🙂

There's mods for performance optimization, though the video here shows the raw game.
Now we need sonic rom hacks or fangames for the wii
You can already run rom hacks? Just get the Genesis Plus GX emulator and some roms from the Sonic Hacking Contest or Sonic Retro.
I wish someone would once make a physical sega genesis cartridge for this game.
...but I was told special stages are very laggy.
No, they're just slow.
Dude duberduckycooly really cooked this game
Now we need a PSP port of this!
3:53
Sonic 1 GBA is that you
I would download this, if I wasn't still looking around for my wii SD card which has all my homebrew files on it. Sonic Mania is the next Doom.

Doom Wii Vs Wii U which version is better?
If Sonic Mania [ Sega Saturn ] (1996)
Could we use the Netflix mobile special stage shaders since they are optimized?
In some ways, I feel like I'm looking at Sega Smash Pack Vol. 1...
Sonic mania on the leapfrog when
Whenever emulation for it is possible.
True because there was a sonic x port for the leapster
@@madnessprime2009 Sonic X was _made_ for the leapster. It isn't a port.
@@MDTravisYT ah I thought leapster and leapfrog were the same
@@madnessprime2009 LeapFrog is the company behind the product.
If mania was WiiWare
That would've been awesome lol
The file size would have to be cutdown to like 40MB.
@Turbulation1 There's a 25MB version of Mania, I presume that could work.
@@MDTravisYT Compression is a godsend huh?
@@MDTravisYT compression link?
DUN DUN DUN! RSDK!
Now we need sonic mania on psp
It is💀
Switch? Nah bro I'm bout to be playing Minecraft, Sonic Mania, Wolfenstein, Duke Nukem, and Doom on the Wii 😂
how did you get this running?
Jailbroken wii
If you're talking about the port, the source code for sonic mania is available online
Is there also widescreen support?
I believe so, but I have no need to display my Wii in 16:9 for now.
hey so quick question, i have installed this and when i load up the games the wii just freezes on the mod loading done screen is there any way to fix this?
Did you import the data(.)win?
sorry im really new to wii modding@@MDTravisYT
where would i find this data(.)win file?@@MDTravisYT
@@MDTravisYT you mean data(.)rdsk? data win is for gamemaker games.
@@camohere Yes, sorry. I don't look into the RSDK games and often get it confused with GameMaker stuff.
Ain’t no way a game with sonic R models as it’s most heavy asset can cause the WII to lag, if anything, this game should be running like normal just with a lower resolution.
It's all the background scenery. If those are disabled, it runs fine. The reason it lags is because *the whole stage is loaded at once.*
@@MDTravisYT I wouldn't mind to have that disabled as long as I can see the track the rings, the blue spheres and the UFO. If they can keep an element or two that would be fine, but I mean, we all just need the chaos emerald.
@@MDTravisYTCan that be configured manually so that it runs better on Wii?
Do you patch/fix this homebrew app? Like fix the lagging on bonus stages
It supports decomp mods. I'm not sure how to install those mods myself, but it should be the same as typical manual installation of RSDK mods.
Ok but I like to add low setting mod and 30 fps mode can you help me?
How are the special stages actually working
I mean it’s not hard to run ps1 graphics when the console is way better than a ps1 I feel like a bit of work on what needs to be rendered would make it fully runnable
@@natechavez8824 yea but many other sonic mania ports chug on the special stages despite them being so low poly
great way to play on a crt
Was there a mod used to display the game in 4:3? If so which one did you use?
My Wii displays in 4:3 by default.
@@MDTravisYT Oh, right. I have mine set to 16:9 since my smart tv automatically stretches it to fill the screen. 🙃
my game freeze before the title screen and a single note ring indefinitly
Your console has crashed.
@@MDTravisYT everytime I launch Sonic mania 5.0
The 4.0 just give me a black screen
I don't know why maybe my Wii is too old for the game
Is the game full? It has the same as other versions or only up to a certain level
It's directly reading off of the RSDK, so I believe so.
Doesn't the Wii support 16:9 resolution? Why was it cropped to a 4:3?
I was also playing on my CRT as I was recording this, which only supports a 4:3 output.
Am i the only one who got their screen stuck on (mod loading done!)?
You need the data.rsdk file.
@@MDTravisYT Where do i find the data.rsdk file
Edit: NVM it was in the actual files for the pc game
Families matter period regardless of side
@@MDTravisYT my screen stuck on mod loading done but i have data.rdsk file
is there a link for the .dol file
Is it possible to play mods on the wii port of Sonic mania?
I believe so, but I'm not sure how just yet.
I use nossdecoration mod to remove all unused accessories on the special stage, now it runs flawlessly.
cool
Mode debug pls
How did you get this to work?
this is what sonic will be in 2010
GameCube or Dreamcast port
A Dreamcast port does exist, but I'm unable to show it as I currently do not have a Dreamcast.
How do you make it work?
Install it like any normal Wii homebrew app and supply the RSDK file where it asks for it.
Are you running it from a floppy disk?
I'm not even sure if Wiis can read floppies. This is running off of an SD card.
tutorial ?
Installation of this is the same way as every other Wii homebrew app.
@@MDTravisYT i dont have the "mod loading done"
@@MDTravisYT waths is a PORT pls
I tried getting this working so many times, but all it does is crash my wii. HOW ARE Y'ALL PLAYING PLEASE TEACH ME 😭
Did you put in the data.rsdk?
I did, but nothing works. I'm probably doing it all completely wrong and I'm just stupid, I mean I only hacked my Wii not even a week ago but I still know how to put the homebrew channel in, newer Mario bros, stuff like that. But when it comes to ANYTHING sonic, I'm out of luck
@@MDTravisYT Like is there some step by step instructions I'm missing? Cus I swear I'm following every instruction I'm given. Is there a very extremely specific rsdk I should get?
I still can't get it working
I finally got it working, though the special stages are incredibly slow
godddddd these load times. no thank you lmfao
It's just 11 seconds or so, you spoiled brat.
DUN DUN DUN! RSDK!
