'''Note to those using rc2 of v9''': Please upgrade to v9 proper since the networking protocol has changed and you won't be able to use network play with rc2 any longer!
+
'''Note to those using the Frodo/Wii network''': the network connection broker 'requires' the latest version of Frodo, so please upgrade if you plan to use the network support!

Frodo is a Commodore 64 emulator written by Christian Bauer (http://frodo.cebix.net). It was ported to the Wii by [[User:SimonKagstrom|Simon Kagstrom]], and many C64 games are fully playable on the Wii with it. So go ahead and beat your friends in International Karate, Boulder Dash or Bomb Jack. It does not share any code with [[User:Corey89/FrodoWii|FrodoWii]], but would be happy to integrate improvements from it!

This version is not the same as Troy Davis implementation, but Troys work is available in a branch in the subversion tree.
    
The emulator works best in 480i mode. It runs perfectly fine in 576i mode as well, but does not utilize the full resolution. This is an SDL issue, and will not be fixed until [[SDL-Port]] supports it. Sound support is slightly buggy, but usable. The emulation itself is not perfect, so not ''all'' games will run under Frodo. Unfortunately, I cannot do very much about this since I haven't ''written'' the emulator - just ported it. If you have multiple versions of a game, try each of them as often at least one will work.
