TASBots are used for a phenomenon called console verification. The N64 has [[Super Mario 64#Wii VC|some properties]] that make it crash more often than emulators like Mupen. This means that a TAS that plays back fine on Mupen may actually crash on console. This is not desired, and so many important TASes, especially those utilizing [[PU]] movement, have been console verified, such as [[Watch for Rolling Rocks#A Button Challenge|Watch for Rolling Rocks 0.5x A presses]]<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kI8iC_WL-Bw</ref> and the [[1 Key]] TAS<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rTBD3eTK8s</ref>. | TASBots are used for a phenomenon called console verification.

There is no known way to make a TASBot for the Wii or Wii U, due to inconsistent input polling. Thus, TASes made using Dolphin or a [[Mupen64#Mupen64-WiiVC-RTZ|hacked version of Mupen]] cannot be console verified using a TASBot.

Thus, TASes made using Dolphin or a [[Mupen64#Mupen64-WiiVC-RTZ|hacked version of Mupen]] cannot be console verified using a TASBot. However, a [[ROMhack]] by Eddio allows the game to play back a TAS within itself. It is possible to inject this into a Wii WAD, which makes TASes made for Wii VC console-verifiable. This method does not work for Wii U VC. | ||
