Cube64 / Wii64 v1.4.4 has been released. Wii64 & Cube64 are Mupen64 for the Gamecube/Wii. This is a port of the well-known multi-OS N64 emulator, Mupen64, adapted for the Nintendo Gamecube and Wii using the libOGC library. The emulator employs dynamic recompilation of the N64 machine code to PowerPC (the ISA of Gamecube/Wii) along with fully hardware-accelerated graphics, enabling (near) full-speed emulation in most cases.
