      Hello. In the docs, on the Wii emulation section it says: "Note This is only for x86 builds- Not the Raspberry Pi!". Does this mean I will not be able to play Wii games on my Raspberry Pi Zero W on Retropie? Thanks in advance.

        @ACIDULATED Yes. The Raspberry Pi Zero is far too underpowered to emulate a system like that.

          @BuZz darn. It was the only relatively cheap Pi I could find.

            @ACIDULATED you're not even likely to get Wii working on the Pi4 which is the most powerful out at the moment. The best it can run is Sega DreamCast quite well

              Lakka has made some good inprovments for Gamecube, not sure how good for Wii games, but you need to overclock the heck out of your Pi to get good results on Gamecube
