Yeah it's bring-your-own ROM because it's just a modified version of Dolphin Emulator. I used the Wii trilogy version, had it installed on my WiiU and it was ridiculously easy to dump the ROM with Dumpling (you don't need a modified console). If you've got GameCube/Wii discs then you'll need a hacked Wii, I think it's not too hard to hack a Wii if you own specific games (like Brawl which lets you read stages from an SD card and run arbitrary code), I think CleanRip is the tool you use to dump the ROM.
Ah so I might be able to do it with 3 just with what I have already but need a Wii and brawl, which is the one I'm missing from the three systems (have melee and the wii u one but not the wii smash bros lol).
Thanks for taking the time to write that, it's a lot more info than I was expecting!
It's relatively fresh in my mind fortunately. Have a look on the wiibrew wiki, it probably has all the other hacks available. Also consider a pre-hacked Wii, probably only £10 or so on eBay!
