Exactly what the title says, what are your recommendations?

I feel like playing some of the great titles that I couldn't buy at the time because of money/nobody selling it/something, and the Wii N64 emulator I tried was just awful and not worth my time -___-

That's the one I'm trying right now, so far so good, but is there a version higher than 1.6?

Yeah, but you have to donate to get it. And its not even done yet. Might take another Year or two.

Or torrent for version 1.7... o.o;

For TASers, there's also Mupen64. If you wanna feel nostalgic, go for Nemu 64, 1964 or UltraHLE (lol). >U<

Can Project64 emulate Mario Tennis well yet?

Aww, not yet. >U< I tried it and the emulator says it has "Issues (Plugin)".

When I made my picks in the menus and went to the play court...
The game speed fell down to 20% and so many weird blocky effects covered the screen. O^O

Project 64 would be my choice as well.

So far as Wii64 goes, you have to bear in mind that they're still on Beta 1.  It does play Zelda well, but there's a myraid of games (not to mention control setup) that could be done better.  So here's hoping it improves with time.

There is ye olde inject-stuff-into-VC-files route, but then a lot of games don't work with that either (BATTLETANX?!  Honestly!), and it's more complicated and legally questionable than your average unsigned code, not worth it IMHO.  Plus the VC's lack of peripheral support pretty much blows anyway.

I only bothered to try Legends on Wii64, & it was mad slow.

How do you do that? I'm new when it comes to doing fun stuff with my Wii.

I haven't dug into it myself.  I just know that it's out there and Googled a non-too-impressive-looking compatibility list.
