A port of DOSBox to the Wii.
Features
- USB Keyboard and mouse support.
- Wiimote pointer support.
- SD/USB mounting.
- Most DOS games are playable.
Installation
Currently you need to use SVN and compile it yourself. It requires SDL Wii. Then put it on an SD card like a normal homebrew app.
Instructions
You need a Wii Remote and a USB keyboard.
The emulator will automatically create a DOSBox folder on your SD Card and mount it as C:. Place DOS games in this folder. It will also automatically create a dosbox.conf file in that folder, which you can edit to change emulation settings.
You need to press A on the Wii Remote to start.
Type "exit" or press Ctrl+F9, or press RESET to exit.
After DOSBox finishes you need to press A to return to Homebrew Channel.
Compatability
Most games work properly now.
Issues
- The joystick isn't working right.
- Some games crash when exiting.
- The welcome message had to be changed slightly due to a bug with 8-bit characters.
- The Home button doesn't exit yet. Use RESET instead.
- Net support has not been enabled
