Isn't it against the rules to talk about emulators? Or am I mistaken?
It's against the rules to talk about piracy. Emulators are legal as long as you own the game you are emulating.
The wii
The reason I can't play my Gamecube is because the controllers are broken. Not the actual system. My plan is to emulate the Gamecube on my computer and play it with a Logitech controller. You can't play a Gamecube game on the wii without a Gamecube controller.
