I've been on an RPG kick lately, so here are some of my favorites. All of them are retro-themed and inexpensive, from $0.99 to $2.99: Cthulhu Saves the World (port of the Xbox Indie RPG) Dragon Fantasy (great homage to Dragon Warrior) Knights of Pen and Paper (brilliant D&D style RPG) Slayin' (s...

Finally got around to trying RetroArch as an alternative to WiiMednafen. Unfortunately, I can't get any of my ripped games to load in it. They all work fine in WiiMednafen, but every time I point to the .cue file with RetroArch I get a generic "error." Already double-checked twice that the...

Wow, I didn't even know that RetroArch was an option. Will definitely try it out. Thanks!

Once in a while, there's a really short oddity in the sound--just a little blurp--but I'd still call it a 99% effective solution. Coincidentally...

Just wanted to thank everybody for helping out with my original question. Thanks to your help, I finally wrapped up this guide for ripping TG-16/PCE games and playing them on the Wii:

Thanks. At the moment, I don't have an rss feed. It's one of those things I keep meaning to set up, but I never seem to get around to it.

Nice video. It's hard to narrow it down to just five, but here are some that I enjoyed immensely and sunk huge amounts of time into, often with my brother or a group of friends. Contra (NES) --Playing it again and again until I could beat it with just three lives Final Fantasy (NES) --Discovering th...

Are you using .bin/.cue format and are you opening the .cue?
