I can confirm that it does play Aliens well, though I'm not sure exactly how I managed to get it running. I have tinkered with MAME a bit, though the user interface and configuration settings were a little too clunky and confusing for me to wrap my head around. Those are all the ones I've tested and can confirm work well without lag or compatibility issues, though there may be other systems that work well too that I haven't tried. As far as the systems it supports well you're looking at:Ĭhocolate Doom (Doom, Ultimate Doom, Doom II, & Final Doom) You can get it all up and running in less than an hour with nothing more than an SD card or Micro SDHC card (up to 32 gig) by installing the Homebrew Channel then the emulators of your choice. If you're looking to emulate 32-bit systems or MAME then you'll probably want to look elsewhere for the best results, but for 8 and 16-bit stuff the original Wii is as cheap and easy as it gets. I don't have much experience with emulation on the XBox, but I can say that the Wii is where it's at when it comes to 8 and 16-bit emulation on a home console. Let me know what you think and if I missed any consoles/options I should be considering! I definitely want to use a CONSOLE though. Can anyone speak to that and/or if you are able to partition it? I am at this time leaning towards the Xbox because of the MAME capabilities and the fact that the internal hard-drive can be upgraded whereas using a Wii i'd have to burn discs or have an external hard drive connected via a USB (the speed worries me for that option.) I know you can do the home brew channel on the Wii mode on your Wii U, but assume you couldn't access the external hard drive formatted for the Wii U via that channel, creating its own issues.

Xbox360/PS3- Have a PS3 fatty but don't want to void warranty/updates, online features, etc. Dreamcast- Underpowered for emulation purposes of later systems Gamecube/PS2-Could be done but seems to make more sense to do an xbox or a wii for various reasons PC/Raspberry Pi: Probably better I realize but I want to use a console for convenience and aesthetics. Here is my reasoning for avoiding other options:

I have more or less narrowed down my choices to the original Xbox and Wii to use as an emulator box and I was wondering which you all thought would be better to use as an emulation machine. I also may have to slim down a few systems but may want to play those games still and explore other retro systems I probably won't find in the wild. As I realize I have less and less space to house stuff i'm really keeping the best titles and moving more towards SD carts.
