UAE Wii 9 released

[partycentralpartygirl]

Yes...

and I can't express how very easy that is to do...

Though I guess if I you have no idea how you do it, it would come across as a VERY confusing process.

I bought a second Wii for the sole purpose of running the Wii port of UAE.

You can pick up a used unit for $100 or less. There is no reason not to have a unit for retro gaming.

Or a modded Xbox classic for that matter!

Also have one of those, as well as a PeeCee hooked to the tv as well. I estimate my entertainment center draws 1000 watts sitting idle. (not really)

I have an extra Wii with a broken DVD drive.  Hard drive and unit works fine otherwise.  Without the drive, is it still useable for modding into an emulation game system or media centre (for Media stored on USB/Smart cards)?

It can be modded via USB.

I would link you to the instructions but mod's may not like that. Google is your friend.

Damn I hate that childish "PeeCee" crap.

And my HTPC has a 270 watt power supply.

I see that Amigan's will find any excuse to nitpick. Please accept my apologies for using offensive terminology. Also I was joking about the wattage. The PC I use hooked to my TV draws significantly more than 280 watts.

It is a gaming machine my husband built to run Skyrim. He runs NVIDIA so I imagine it draws over 500watts. Though idle it probably draws less than 100 watts.

Well...I didn't mention the 600 watt power supply hooked to the other system with the 125 watt Phenom II processor and the Radeon HD4870 video card (which also doubles as a nice space heater for my bedroom in the Winter).

And, yeah, we DO get pissy around here every once and awhile. Sorry.

No hard feelings, and yes the system does make a nice space heater, he moved it out of the entertainment unit to the top because he thought the airflow would be better out in the open. Unfortunately I can no longer shut the door and not see it and asthetically it is not too pleasing having a large tower sitting out in the open, it does run Lunar Leeper, Gorf and Omega Race well however so I do not complain. He does roll his eyes when I emulate a 1mhz computer on a quad core system... Anyways having a USB cord nailed to my crown moulding leaves something to be desired though. I would pay at least $100 to have some different solution. Who do I send money to to get a Bluetooth Competition Pro?

Not if you still own and use the real deal.

Agreed, nothing beats the original chips. My miggy's are still soldiering on but it's nice to play Deluxe Galaga from the couch, so I emulate as well.
