I'm a newcomer in the world of wii homebrew and I was pretty impressed with the quality of the emulators (Visual Boy Advance GX, FCE Ultra GX, Snes9x GX for example). However there's one critical thing they're missing - hotkeys for quick save/load state.
-----------
There are a few unassigned keys on Wii controllers (especially on a classic controller which is perfect for these kinds of games). Why not to put them to good use?
On classic controller it could be zL and zR for save/load to selected state, and small button in between - for state select.
On the Wiimote + Nunchuck you could use either Wiimote D-pad or Nunchuck Joystick (whichever one you don't use for game controls). Left/Right for save/load, up/down for next/previous state. Or a different layout that you'd like better (those were just ideas).
-----------
I really hope that those features will be implemented.
Without them those emulators will never be perfect.
