Ok, Guntz, I got it. I gave away my Wii a while ago…getting a new one would be around the same price, well..more, as the parts for this Gamecube…I wonder how the backwards compatibility is from the Wiiu to the Wii..?? I can perhaps just skip over the Wii altogether...

Systems like the Genesis also have perfect backwards compatibility because it shares the same CPU (Z80) and sound hardware (PSG) and video hardware (SMS VDP mode support).
