    Default Important question about download Mario Bros (WiiU emulation on Mac)

    Hey all,
    I'm pretty new. I'm trying to download the ROM for Super Mario Bros Wii, using this site's link and the emulator I'm using is Dolphin. I downloaded the file, which was a .7z. I then used the Unarchiver to extract the file, and all I got was a folder with all the game data. Am I supposed to keep extracting, or is it problems with the fact I'm using a Mac?

    Thanks!

    please be more clear, a screencap of the full archive and directory would help.
    data?
    if it's not an iso image, it's likely to be a wbfs archive.
    good to go for emus and soft/hardmodded consoles.
    what exactly is the data you're left with?
    and also, get 7zip specific for mac/osx.
    to be sure,, a wii game is a retail iso image, and a scrubbed wbfs archive after a successful extraction.
    mind you, i don't rip from here, so i couldn't say personally.
    i can;t see epf being that slack-alice.
    [edit]
    keys.

    link to this game please, not finding wii roms here....

    Listed as an .iso

    Sometimes (on windows) extraction programs can change the icon of .iso files to look like a file type associated with the extractor. Hopefully if you extracted from the .iso you did not delete it. Move the .iso to your games folder and open it from your Dolphin emulator.

    Note that on Windows 7 with a 3GHz 4 core processor I would get slowdown in that game with enough activity on screen, for instance a ghost house elevator was maybe 4-5 FPS.

    Also: Please make sure to make new threads in the correct section. This one should have been in Everything Emulation > Nintendo Systems.


    Be afraid. Be very afraid.
