Can the GAMEMT EX8 Run Nintendo Wii?

Compiled & reviewed by Urs von Gunten, HandheldWiki editorial · How we rate ·

Yes, with minor compromises. The GAMEMT EX8 handles Nintendo Wii well — most games run at full speed, and only the heaviest titles like The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Metroid Prime 3 may need light frameskip or a small resolution drop. Lighter games such as Mario Kart Wii and Wii Sports are no trouble.

BYes — with minor compromisesOur Nintendo Wii rating for the GAMEMT EX8: grade B — Great — minor frameskip

Why Nintendo Wii is the test: GameCube-class 3D plus motion controls you have to map to buttons — heavy, and not every game is practical handheld.
