That is awesome, it is time to update my emulators.

Sega CD support soon too!? So cool!

Do I have to download roms for the different system cards, or will that emulator have them built in?

I guess I can just try it xD

You just have to download system card 3.0 for CD games and place it in the Wiimednafen folder on the root of your SD card and then all CD games will automatically start with that.

For more info you can read the instructions on wiibrew.org

Thank you for the help, I am really excited to get this working! I may need to go buy a new SD card to fit those CD games.

Well Genesis Plus GX's Google code page just got back from the dead and has another update on Sega CD support!

I'm really excited for this! This was literally one of the only things I felt the Wii was missing. That and GC USB loading, but it's getting that soon too :D

Very nice! So does this mean working Sega CD games, or is it still in progress.

I really wish someone would port something like CoinOps. I think the Wii would be the ultimate emu machine if it had better mame support.

The 240 output is just too good, it only makes sense to get arcade games running.

How do you know this? Have you tried other ACD games?

I didn't know it was an ACD, so I decided to test it for my self and, from what I can tell, it runs perfectly! Case closed.

Also, there's another update for Genesis Plus GX Sega CD support :D
