Without having to "hack" the wii u should be able to play every single nintendo console ever made but to play other games such as xbox games an d ps2 games, homebrew code that will emulate the consoles have to be created so my question is can the wii handle emulation for the original xbox?? As for the ps2, I really do think it can emulate it because wii should have a clock speed of 875 Mhz and the ps2 has a clock speed of 300 Mhz, so...when next gen arrives (in this case wii) will the last gen (in this case ps2 and xbox) be able to be emulated on the wii???
Thx, in advance for all OPINIONS... (I caps locked it because I dont want to hear any offensive talk saying we dont know yet!)
If I insult you...don't get offended...my insults are "friendly insults"...I know this sounds stupid (ridiculous) but I am fet up of writing, "no offense" in my posts...

No, no, no. The Wii will be lucky if is even as powerful as the Xbox, let alone being able to emulate it.

You need a processor many times more powerful than what you are emulating. When you consider all that have to be emulated, the processor, the sound chips, the video, any other custom chips, and all of the timings have to be perfect it is very taxing on a processor to emulate something perfectly. The Wii doesn't have a much more powerful processor compared to the Xbox so emulation would be difficult to say the least. The Xbox is basically a PC with an Intel processor so I would expect to see emulation on the PC with similar architectures than a completly different chipset such as the Wii. Look at things like DOSBox which emulates a 386 with sound card. The most demanding DOS games such as Duke 3D, Wing Commander III, or Redneck Rampage do not run at full speed on a 2.5 ghz machine even though that is 100 times more powerful than a 25mhz 386.

______________________________________________________________________It is more powerful than the xbox! Although I knew what you guys told me what you said I just wanted to see if any miracles can happen because the psp is gonna emulate n64 at 30-60 fps!! And its only 6 times as great with overclocking...
What if we overclock the wii?? (I will put it next to a fan tho) cause my mom has a pentium 3 866 Mhz and I can over clock it to slightly over 1.4 Ghz!!! If we can do that with the wii assuming that it is 875 Mhz will it work? Probably not, right? Well correct me if Im wrong but on a comp, a pagefile is like innactive ram but on a hdd right? What if we can get a 2 gb sd card or a hdd and use homebrew to make pagefiles or if not possible then only make halo and halo 2 work cause they are the most important games to be emulated, rewrite the whole part of the code that makes it xbox compatible into gamecube compatible code then overclock and everything...
__________________________________________________________________
I know my imagination has gone a bit wild there but I want to play Xbox on my Wii!! If we overclock the Wii, we can emulate the ps2, right? I say that because to emulate n64, the psp (overclocked to 333 Mhz) has about 6 times the CPU power as the n64 and in this case, the wii will be overclocked to 1.4 Ghz (a bit more) and the ps2 is 300 Mhz (0.3 Ghz) meaning that the Wii will be more than four times faster!
P.S. Tell me if anyone of the above would be possible. I personnaly think that the ps2 has a much greater chance of being emulated...I wont put my hopes up for emulating the xbox but maybe emulating the psp (or xbox portable if it comes out) on my Wii, or even the ps2!!
If I insult you...don't get offended...my insults are "friendly insults"...I know this sounds stupid (ridiculous) but I am fet up of writing, "no offense" in my posts...

No, it is actually quite remotely possible, and yes actually it IS more powerful than the xbox, I assume you are talking about that big black thing as some would call the "xbox1." Though with how cheap xboxs are nowadays and how easy it is to mod them, I would think just buying a modded xbox would be cheaper than Fing around with your wii, not to mention safer. I would know since i've modded a shitload of xboxs in my day, trust me, and on the xbox you'll be able to get all on nintendo's old games (cept the gamecube and wii's of course) for FREE as well as certain ps1 games.

actually no, all n64, snes and nes games wont be free...althought they will be very inexpensive...just clarifying for others
I do have an xbox, I just want to sell it...thats why I want to emulate it...so Ill just keep the games and sell the xbox that was my plan...

Um, if you are reffering to my post, yes n64 and snes games will be FREE if you have a MODDED XBOX. All you have to do is download them and FTP them to a folder inside the xbox. Mabye somehow you read my post and got MODDED XBOX confused with WII, though I can't imagine how... I have a modded xbox and I used to be an xbox modder to make money. Roms are free. You won't get much $$$ for an xbox these days anyways, but yea, a Modded Wii would be amazing, but don't expect me to Faround with my Wii until a sure-fire way of modding it has been proven, cause I'm not gunna risk the chance of killing a new, expensive, (and probably fun) piece of electronic equipment.

Even if it was poss to run Xbox games on a Wii then how would the controllers work?
Even if the Wii had the rumoured 1.2Ghz CPU then it still wouldnt be worth it.

The question is, Why would you want a Wii to play xbox games, by that time get a 80 XBOX

Answer #1: There would be a hack to use maybe a 360 controller on the USB port? Or maybe even a gamecube controller? Why wouldn't it be worth it?
Answer #2: What do you mean 80 Xbox and I want to emulate it because I want to sell it and make money as well as free up space in my very packed room...

Yea and it would run better emulation you have to have like 100x the CPU that the Xbox used.
So it would still run crappy on my X2 crossfire machine because the emulator?s for Xbox are crap at the moment, plus its going to be harder to emulate as the Xbox uses a NVIDIA based GPU and the Wii uses a superior ATi GPU it would work but it would be very hard and slow to get to do it properly.
So who here would bother making a emulator for it?

Yea your right there still if someone dose it and proves me wrong then so be it hands down well done to them but It would have to be 100% perfect before I?m happy with it because I know that its not really going to happen, I think we should be happy with the emulation it already has included Nintendo has looked at the modding scene and said lets use it as standard.

don't get me wrong, I love the backward compatibility of nintendo but I only see myself playing n64 generation and up...anything 2d, I can only play on my psp...i guess its psychological but wtv...and cloudkill, 100% is highly unlikely...but I will only be satisfied with a minimum of 90% of "perfect" (almost perfect).....I have patience thought....patience for it to be done...if someone announces they are working on a xbox emulator for the wii...then Im ok (patience wise) if not I will always be killing myself wondering will it be made...but now I met the metroid prime series (metroid prime, 2 echose and 3 corruption (not out)) and that should keep me going (I think metroid is soooo close to being as good as halo...(from what I have played which is only 5 minutes..plus looking at rating on gamespot.com and reading about it...not the most accurate review but wtv...
P.S. Every time I post in this thread, don't you guys find my message comes in a big bulk..in other words do I talk (type) too much??
