Cemu short for Cafe Emulation (the Wii U operating system running on the PowerPC) is a closed source Wii U video game console emulatordeveloped by Exzap for Microsoft Windows.It was initially released on October 13, 2015.Typically, the emulator updates once every two to four weeks, with Patreon supporters receiving updates a week earlier than the public release.
Though it is still under development, it is able to run certain games smoothly. In January 2017, it was reported that Cemu is capable of running games in 4K resolution through graphic packs.As of 2019, Cemu is one of the four working eighth generation console emulators in existence along with the open-source Decaf emulator, also for Wii U, and yuzu and Ryujinx, for the Nintendo Switch (neither of which are complete as of December 2018); the Xbox One has not been sufficiently reverse-engineered yet.
DEVELOPMENT
Developers of Cemu expected that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild would be playable with only a few months worth of work,and had a rudimentary version of the game's tutorial playable within weeks of its release.As of July 2017, the game is now fully playable and is able to be completed with physics, particle effects, and reduced crashes. Cutscenes are currently available with a community-made addon called Cemuhook.
Also included in Cemuhook is an optional feature that allows performance increases at the cost of intermittent texture bugs.On December 26, 2017, an update added support for multi-threaded CPU emulation, which enabled Breath of the Wild to be played at 60 frames per second.
WII U
The Wii U (/ˌwiː
The Wii U was the first Nintendo console to support HD graphics. The system's primary controller is the Wii U GamePad, which features an embedded touchscreen, directional buttons, analog sticks, and action buttons. The screen can be used either as a supplement to the main display or in supported games to play the game directly on the GamePad. The Wii U Pro Controller can be used in its place as a more traditional alternative. The Wii U is backward compatible with all Wii software and accessories. Games can support any combination of the GamePad, Wii Remote, Nunchuk, Balance Board, or Nintendo's Classic Controller or Wii U Pro Controller. Online functionality centers around the Nintendo Network platform and Miiverse, an integrated social networking service which allows users to share content in game-specific communities.
The Wii U was met with a generally positive reception, which included praise for its innovative GamePad controller, improvements to online functionality over the Wii, backwards compatibility with existing Wii software and peripherals, and relative affordability. However, the Wii U was also criticized for the GamePad's short battery life and issues with the console's user interface and functionality.The Wii U was met with slow consumer adoption, with low sales that were primarily credited to a weak lineup of launch titles,limited third-party support,and poor marketing.Wii U production officially ended in January 2017.[16] On March 3, 2017, Nintendo released its successor, the Nintendo Switch, which notably retained and refined concepts that were first introduced with the Wii U.
