Will look into this. I still have my original Wii and out of all the old consoles I have, it is the only one my family comes back to regularly even now that that my kids are adults. Waiting for it to pack it in one day.

I'm honestly a bit jealous. The two things I grew up on was the Wii and Linux. The Wii I don't have as my parents got rid of it while I was still in school. I'm still slightly upset to this day but that was a long time ago so I mostly bury it.

The original Wii console doesn't have a lot of RAM so you can't do much with it. That is further worsened by the fact that it hasn't had any security patches in quite sometime so that's why I am interested in running games on my local machine. You can pickup a dolphin bar for 25-30 USD.
