I know of one way to do this (NAND dump and then access the VC channel from the system menu) but I don't want to emulate within an emulator.
I read in this thread that it is possible to extract an N64 ROM from a wad of the virtual console game. The only problem is I do not have the wad of the game (because, as I understand it, wads are installers and the Wii Shop Channel automatically installs for you). I only have the meaningless numbered folder with .app files and .tik, etc.
Is there a way to either re-pack the previously installed (and backed-up) VC game into a wad, or maybe re-download the wad from Nintendo (on my Wii) and stop it from installing so I can just get the wad?
I want to play Majora's Mask on my computer (I got it for free from the Club Nintendo program, so now I don't have to worry about trying to play it on my damaged Collector's Edition disc).
