News Cemu Wii U Emulator Version 1.7.5 Shows Daunting Progress With Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Nearly 8000 backers continue to fund development, too
Cemu, for quite a while, was a relatively low-key Wii U emulator. Its efforts to run games like Super Mario 3D World and Nintendo Land were mixed at best, often struggling to achieve playable framerates on impressive PC builds. Yet the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild seemingly...
News Team Behind Wii U Emulator, CEMU, Makes Surprising Progress With Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Interest in dev's Patreon spikes, too
During 2016 we provided a few status updates on CEMU, essentially the Wii U spin on the Dolphin emulator - in spirit at least. A team of enthusiasts has been working on running Wii U titles on PC, and results range from playable to sketchy; progress was certainly made, however. The release of The Legend of...

Is likely to remain closed-source for a while, too
A little while ago we shared news of Cemu, a functioning Wii U emulator. Early doors it could barely boot up the opening artwork of a game, and the slow nature of progress on such projects points to it being many months (maybe years) away from being functional in a meaningful way. It's less a threat...
News Proof of Functioning Wii U Emulator, Cemu, Emerges Online
Still very early days
For as long as there are consoles there'll be hackers and programmers attempting to reverse engineer them for emulation.

It's a...
