    You cant load wad files with usb loader, it's just for ISO files.

    Sometimes wads dont work because of region or just because it's a bad wad version.

    Triiforce might be something you could use, but it's an advanced tool.

    Some game wad files are actually forwarders. They need either the game iso or rom on the sd or hdd and the loader. I would try another wad, it looks you might have one of those.

    Those would be roms, fceultragx is an emulater. It also works great. All you need to do is DL nes roms and place them in USB/fceugx/roms you might have to changes the settings in fceugx to load from USB

    No you don't put WAD-s.U are installing wads via wad manager for a channel.But u put roms.They are even better u don't have to install them and they spend less space.
    Best sites are Rom Hustler and ROMNAtion.U can download every single game!
    If u want post which games u want if u cand find and i will give u links!

    U put Roms in USB/fceugx/Roms/here. Also create folder Saves in same folder.And if it gives u error,just navigate to a folder and launch games!

    On your usb device on the fat32 partition create a folder and name it fceugx. inside that folder create another folder and name it roms and another named saves.
    I hope I don't have to ban anyone for posting links to pirated material.
