Hi,

No N64 emulator works properly yet on the wii homebrew channel, so currently it's not worth getting the roms.

The best you can hope for is finding the .wad file for Donkey Kong and installing it with Wad manager. You can get .wad files from Torrent sites.

However I wouldn't hold your breath looking for that particular game as a .wad as it hasn't been released on the virtual console yet. Also I doubt it will as it was made by Rare, who are now owned by microsoft. It is worth a look though.

One day an N64 homebrew emulator will work, you will have to keep checking sites that concentrate on wii hacking for an update.

I can't tell you where to get roms as they aren't legal. To my knowledge distributing roms is illegal and so is owning them unless you have the original game. Most emulation communities either suspend or ban people just for asking that.

I can, however, tell you what to look for. Wii64 (which i'm assuming is the emulator you're trying to use) supports all n64 rom formats. Files with the extension .V64, .Z64 or .N64 will work with it.
