Cemu – Wii U emulator

Cemu is software to emulate Wii U games and applications on a PC. This software lets you run commercial Wii U games directly from your Linux machine.

The majority of games are completely playable from start to finish. While the Wii U is not a particularly demanding console, emulation requires a machine with much greater hardware than the original machine. A good processor will definitely help speed things up. While modern video-games can be less dependent, emulation can rely quite heavily on CPU performance. At least an AMD Ryzen 3 or an Intel i5 processor is recommended.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Supports online play, using official Nintendo servers.
• Experimental support for Pretendo.
• GamePad, Pro Controller and Classic Controller are emulated
• Wiimotes are emulated partially.
• Keyboard input and USB controllers as input devices are supported.
• GamePad touch input can be controlled via left mouse click. Gyro functionality is emulated
• AppImage is available for easy usage under Linux.
• Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, macOS, and Windows.
