BlueMSX for Wii

On Google Code, Tim Brugman has started a project, porting the popular MSX emulator BlueMSX to the Nintendo Wii.

A working version is already available for those who know how to run homebrew software on the Wii, by downloading and copying the contents of this directory to the root of an SD card.

My 60Hz TV doesn't like the frequency, the screen is black and white (the menu) and black and white+rolling during a game.

Looks like the emulator switches frequency based on the emulated MSX, so try using a japanese MSX bios for 60Hz TV's

it's something more than just the refresh rate, I got spacemanbow to work (after naming the ROM image the same as the XML told me to name it) - since the game is 60hz I could view the screen. The emulator (and menu) still are in black/white which I believe is due to pal/ntsc differences.

It works very good with a few hickups.
