Creating an Online Game (MMO) Based on a Wii Game.

[Synchro]

Hello Dear Readers,

I am planning on making an online game based on a Wii Game ( Pokémon Battle Revolution ), But i need some of your help, how? by answering my questions if you don't mind.

As far as i know to play with other people online it 'll require having the same Dolphin Version & Settings and the Exact same game & NetPlay of course,

I was wondering is there anyway to host NetPlay Online & Create multiple Rooms with Different IDs and people can simply go to the Game's Website & Create or Join Rooms Online ? what i mean is , is there anyway to upload the whole Dolphin Online or just Netplay or any other way to let people host their Games online or join other people's game without using their own NetPlay to host.

I have another idea as well, is there any way to turn the game into a Browser Game so people will just have to download it from the internet & play it in there browsers

Yet , Still have another idea in mind, is there any other way to create a MMO using that Game ? So people won't even need to download Dolphin or NetPlay to play , they'll just need to Launch the .exe File > Login > Play with others.

For Now, That's what i need answers to.

Thank you in Advance!

P.S : What inspired me was the PokeMMO Game which is Based & uses the NDS & GBA ROMs.

I'm not really sure what you mean by things like "upload the whole Dolphin online". Someone somewhere has to be running a Dolphin instance that hosts the game. You could do that on a server instead of a player's system if you want to, but I don't understand what the point in doing that is, because it just adds an extra system... If you want to take a look at an existing matchmaking system for netplay works, there's http://www.smashladder.com/

There's no way you're going to be able to emulate a Wii in a browser fast enough. You would also obviously need everyone to have Pokémon Battle Revolution on their computers unless you want it to be illegal.

I suppose you could make a modified version of Dolphin that integrates with this MMO you're planning. It'd take a fair bit of work, though.

@JosJuice, What i meant " by uploading the whole Dolphin online " was what i have said in the end of the Topic

I have 0% Knowledge about making a Modified Version of Dolphin that integrates , but i had that idea in mind already, anyway , you're saying that you'll join this project tho ? will you take care of the Modified Dolphin ?

& I have a question, what does the smashladder provide exactly ?

After checking the http://www.smashladder.com website i was wondering how did they create a website like this ?

Fans got together, and their passion led one of them to make it.

all i need to know so far, which Plugin, Script... Did they use to create the Chat Lobby & the Challenges Lobby.

[JosJuice]

I assume they wrote it themselves.

So Far, i have designed the Website With all the Required Features, Trying to Create a Challenges Script

Just what sort of game are you looking to make? I would imagine modifying a Wii game is much more than hacking a GBA/NDS game. And MMOs are serious undertakings, even with communities splitting the work around. Fwiw, the closest thing we have so far is TwitchPlaysPokemon (Battle Revolution betting). A somewhat static system would work; you stream the whole thing, and players send input to the server (as text). Different people can watch different matches; different matches would just be different instances of Dolphin. That would allow for tournaments at the least. Getting a fancy website with chat tools is something else though.
