What it recreates
Translates the Wii U PowerPC program into C++ and supplies replacement system libraries and a Vulkan graphics path, building on Petexy's cafe-recomp work.
What’s different
The author documents local eight-player Smash, configurable resolutions, mod loading, controller support and optional Pretendo online features.
What you can use today
v0.1.1 supplies a Windows ZIP with older-CPU support and input/stutter fixes. Its new beta netplay rooms stream one host’s game to up to seven guests at 1080p/60, with guest input returned to the host. This is remote-play streaming, not eight synchronized native game instances. The new streaming path was tested on one PC, not between separate homes; restrictive networks may prevent direct connections. Original US Wii U game files are required by the host. High display rates use interpolation; repository-generated game code has separate rights. RemakeList has not tested it.
