I have a strange question to ask, and as far as i know this was the right section to post it in. I have gotten most of the games from my old systems on my computer, and wanted to play them on my wii, I am well aware that there are many emulators running around for all systems and pcs but I feel in most casses they don't work that wonderful.
My question is does anybody know a guide/can tell me how to port games straight to a console, in this case the wii. I recall hearing some company had a computer that does an automatic port of games they put in it (I think it was Sony could be wrong) and I know that would be done by a professional. Regardless I would still like to attempt it. Thank you for an and all information given for this topic.

(P.S. Sorry for the wall of text, just trying to cut out certain inevitable comments.)

You need to softmod you're Wii if you're looking into emulating other systems on it. You'll need to install the homebrew channel and with that comes the homebrew browser. You'll find plenty of emulators to use there.

To help you softmod use ModMii, found here.

Any other questions, feel free to ask.

Well I was trying to look for something more like actually playing the game on the wii itself rather than running it through an emulator, since my wii can't handle a ps2 emulator, which is why there sin't one of course, but my ps2 is broke and i can honestly say im too broke to buy a new one so my games are just sitting here. Something more like what they did with a lot of Resident Evil games, get made on one system then move them to another. That's what im trying to figure out. Regardless I do thank you for an answer though.

Forgot to add its already soft modded about as far as I can possibly get it.
