YAY! I got The ScummVM Channel set up on my Wii! At this very second, it's successfully playing the opening cutscene for KQ6! Much KQ, Monkey Island, Sam & Max and DOTT to be had!!
It's been a while since I tried it, but I think the problem I had was with the cutscenes and dialogue animations running sluggishly or out of sync or something. The game ran, it just didn't run well.

I'm not sure how ScummVM from the Homebrew Channel works, but the ScummVM Channel is just a forwarder that launches the ScummVM software's boot.elf file. Since the ScummVM files which the forwarder points to are the same files that Homebrew detects, I don't see why it would be any different.
I hadn't played that far into Curse yet on my Wii, but I watched the intro cutscene, picked up the ramrod and talked to Wally. I had no lag or sync issues at all that I could tell.
The ScummVM Channel is installed from a WAD file. I used Multi-Mod Manager to install it.
Oh, also I'm running ScummVM 1.2 for Wii, downloaded from scummvm.org. I don't know what the version of ScummVM is that's downloadable from Homebrew Browser.
Oh come now, it's all just a build-up til he starts screaming in that high-pitched hysterical voice, just doesn't tickle me amigo.
I used to like Spoony a lot untill he became a massive breast, roughly around the same time he teamed up with TGWTG... just sayin'.
To each his own on the NC. Personally I find his massively high pitched voice hilarious, but I thought the same about Daniel Stern, who NC reminds me of A LOT.
Also, Spoony was always an egomaniacal asshole, but I've always liked him for that. It's not like I have to be around him in real life, and if I was, I probably couldn't stand him. I say that because I once knew a guy with a lot of his mannerisms and his type of opinions, and he was a scheming bastard who annoyed the hell out of me. Who knows, though. Spoony seems like a camera hog, but he might be a nice guy irl. Or just an ass.
I really would not mind not knowing. Really, I wouldn't.
Foreskin Man was created as part of some sort of anti-circumcision movement. Apparently there's some sort of circumcision debate going on right now between....I don't know who. Political parties maybe. I dunno. Either way, he's a legit character.

I did just write a long post explaining why Hayden is probably more right than he realises, but for some reason the big wall of text didn't want to post.
So here's the cliff notes:
- I've just completely failed at uni
- Its not a huge suprise
- The failure was caused by my lack of passion for business
- The straw that broke the camel's back was a lecture a few moths ago on employer expectations
- I realised my course was pretty pointless, as I had already not done well enough to get the mandatory placement
- This is made worse by a terrible CV.
- CV is terrible since I have had only one job ever, a crap one, and have no skills or significant extracurricular stuff to display
- I never recovered from that shock.
- I sought help, but no one really wanted to help me. Meetings were scheduled on days I couldn't make (and I told them before they tried to arrange them), and the meetings I did go to they just gave me generic organisation advice.
- Its a miracle I got this far in the first place since I had a better, though still terrible first year.
- Spent most of the first year in temporary accomodation in a travel lodge.
- Had to go out constantly for food and internet since I didn't have basic necessities like a fridge or a microwave.
- The rest was spent in a student room.
- Which would have been fine if it were not for the constant terrorising from the other people living there.
- They made my life hell, by playing music really loud, and really late, (not good music either), contantly partying, shouting at me through the door, throwing stuff at the door, and stealing my food.
- Unsuprisingly I decided to commute this year.
- That commute consists of several hours of bus rides
- Early starts and late finishes made me tired and gradually apathetic.
- Home life was just too good really. Just got distracted by everything. Still can't focus myself.
- I now actually WANT a crappy full-time job so I don't have to worry about anything anymore.
- Ever since I was a kid all I have ever really loved are videogames, and I am tempted to just go for it. Learn to code, and properly sprite and make music, and persue my dreams.
Go indie. (Do it either as a course or something, or just do it on the side of full time work)

I thought we were doing gifs where you can read someone's lips. He's not even talking!
His lips are smiling. That's all that is necessary.
Also, I wasn't strictly entering the competition, only demonstrating my approval of it via a gif.
No. You can't raise me. My parents did a good enough job of that already.
You rang?
I strike again!
EEEEEEeeeeeeeee!!!! fun fun fun fun fun.
Problem, you say?
The controls work fine. A is left-click, B is right-click, Home is F5 and Minus is Escape. Seems to work well enough for me.
What's wrong with Curse playing through the Homebrew channel? The ScummVM and game files are all in the same place.
I'll come back when we're talking about something worthwhile.

Oooh. Big man. Big deal.
Runs fine here.

machines!
So when someone asked if anyone in TTG has super powers in there dreams how many came up with this?
You ain't seen nothing yet until you've seen a Rule34 involving both.
I really would not mind not knowing. Really, I wouldn't.

Was the Jewker the main villain?
Sounds like he needs a good shaking!
Monster Mohel actually, and yes, he's a Jew.
As the comic says, “Nothing excites Monster Mohel more than cutting into the penile flesh of an eight-day-old infant boy.”
You don't want to see what Foreskin Man's cape is made out of!
Its the simple things in life we enjoy the most.
I'm being less helpful.
I seem to be incapable of focusing and actually doing any work at all.
(I barely even care. Thats the worst part)
And now my sleep pattern has changed completely.
I used to go to bed around 1am and get up around 9 or 10, but now its turned into 4am -12pm.
All of these things can be caused from minor internet addiction.
Or being a teenager.
But RetroVortex has outgrown that disease.
Males never out grow that.
