I know this might not make much sense, and if it does has probably been answered before.

Does the Wii effectively run an emulator of (for example) the NES to play a rom of a game, or is the NES game recoded to be played on the Wii?

last i check each game individually runs on a emulator of its own combined with the rom file, now obviously i think since its not like the one you would use on the computer where u just select any rom file then drag in on the snes emulator icon then the game runs, whatever they are doing must of had to be coded to work with so and so controllers and emulator and game combined code

i think this makes sense or i could be wrong, i think if the hardware was too different it might of required special attention

So far as I know, the Wii emulates the files. This is a question better asked of Nintendo proper, though.
