A version of SDL Paradroid, a classic game, has been compiled for the Nintendo Wii to fill the void of C64 games in the U.S. Virtual Console. This version is created using the GPL'ed source code and data files from the original SDL Paradroid and will be released under the same license once a stable version is achieved.
The developer is aware of the Virtual Console version available in Europe and encourages users to purchase it, however, this version is intended for those who live in the U.S. where it is not available. It is not derived from the European version, but is instead made compatible with the Wii Homebrew SDL library.
Installation Instructions
Install the Homebrew Channel if you haven't. Download the 7-Zip Archive file and extract it to the /apps directory of your SD-Card. Insert card and launch from Homebrew Channel.
Alternatively, and preferably, use the Homebrew Browser Wii to install this and many other great games!

Known Issues
- Lift teleport issue- lift on a certain level will teleport you to another lift if you activate it, then exit without changing levels
- Bots sometimes get confused or stuck - but hey, they're bots, right?
- Sometimes after a successful transfer the transfer sound doesn't play and you exit the transfer screen immediately
- Occasionally it seems like a successful transfer results in a tie- but its likely a display update issue
- Version printed during boot says .03, but binary is up to date
