Known Issues
- Homebrew Channel: Attempting to 'Load from SDCard' will result in error 'f_opendir(/snes9x/roms) failed with 11'. Currently, this functionality is broken, try loading from an SDGecko in the meantime, if you have one. (This error happens if you dont have the roms directory in your front SD "root:/snes9x/roms", thats the "usual" path to make it work)
- Homebrew Channel: Selecting 'TP Reload' will result in a crash - there is currently no way to get back to the HBC unless you select 'Reboot Wii'.(Keep the Z button pressed on your gamecube pad after "TP reboot", it will be back to HBC menu. It works with other programs)
- European (PAL) games run too fast in 60 Hz mode.
- Fix: Set the Wii to 50 Hz mode or use a version that enforces 50 Hz mode.
- Using an RGB cable on a PAL Wii results in a red colored screen.
- Fix: Use deletenop's version (see below).
- Using a composite cable on a PAL Wii set to 60 Hz results in a black & white screen. This issue may not appear depending on the TV used.
- The screen is offset to the left
- Wii's Widescreen setting is ignored.
- Set your TV to 4:3, as you do when using virtual console.
- Normal snes9x bugs still exist
- Some sound effects are wrong (those in games by Square)

deletenop recompiled version 0.0.9 with forced PAL 50 mode. This fixes the red screen problem when using an RGB cable on a PAL Wii. Apparently it also fixes the speed problem with PAL roms.
