This guide will help you to add CEMU emulator support to Retropie. It will not work on a Raspberry PI but will work fine on a X86_64 machine.
Inspired from https://github.com/raelgc/retropie_rpcs3-appImage
Check if you have PS3 already listed in file ~/RetroPie-Setup/platforms.cfg
.
If not, create (or edit) file /opt/retropie/configs/all/platforms.cfg
and add:
wiiu_exts=".wux .wud"
wiiu_fullname="Nintendo Wii U"
After that, install the RPCS3 setup script with:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mont5piques/retropie_cemu/main/cemu-appImage.sh -O ~/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/cemu-appImage.sh
Now you can run RetroPie Setup script and cemu
will available under exp
(experimental) packages section.
After dumping your original WIIU games, copy your WUX or WUD files to ~/RetroPie/roms/wiiu/
.
Important You need to include the title key into cemu keys.txt
file. The file is usually located under ~/.local/share/Cemu/
.
Before running any WIIU game from Retropie, you need to configure CEMU first. Do it by running /opt/retropie/emulators/cemu-appImage/bin/cemu.AppImage
Typically, you will need to :
- Activate Async shader compilation (General Settings > Graphics) to improve performance
- Set the graphic API to use (Vulkan or OpenGL)
- Set the audio output for TV
- Go to input settings and configure all your controllers
