Played using Dolphin Emulator, but can work on a real Wii or Wii U. (Using Wii Mode)
Alternate Title: Me sucking at Dr. Mario
So another successful game night in the RiiConnect24 Discord Server, I had fun with this game, but as you can tell, I'm not very good at it. (You can tell me how bad I am in the comments all you want!) This game also runs really well on my PC and it's really smooth when playing online, I had no issues with lag this time.
Q: What is this "Wiimmfi?"
A: Wiimmfi is a replacement service for the now-defunct Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. The Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ( also known as Nintendo WFC) service was an online gaming service that provided online play for free in various Nintendo DS and Wii games. On May 20th, 2014, Nintendo discontinued the online service, the main reason was that the host of the service, GameSpy, was discontinuing its servers. Nintendo WFC was originally needed for playing Wii and DS games online, but the Wiimmfi Project has replicated much of its functionality and allows for continued online play in DS and Wii software.
Q: How can I play Wii and DS games online again?
A: To play Wii and DS games online again you will need a custom server called Wiimmfi. To use Wiimmfi, the games must be patched to use the new domains and also to change some other settings. There are three ways to get connected with Wiimmfi as shown here:
- You can use the easiest method where you just change the DNS of your Wii or DS's internet settings and you are good to go.
- Another way to get Wiimmfi and you're using a Wii is that you can softmod it and get connected right away, and you will also be able to access more features if you decide to softmod your Wii.
- If you are using a Wii or emulating one and running a game as an ISO or WAD you can patch it so it runs with the Wiimmfi custom server.

NOTE: If you're wanting to play Wiimmfi using a Wii U you will need a Super Smash Bros Brawl disc as all the methods above do not exist on the Wii U. Follow this guide here to get your virtual Wii installed with the Homebrew Channel: youtube.com/watch?v=uuD_jav-hB8
