So i know there has been talk about the Wii homebrew channel i was wondering if there is a way to install it without the Twilight Hack. Dont wanna waste money on Zelda lol.

I hope they didnt apply the updates to the new consoles already

Only if you have a mod chip. But I'm not 100% sure.

Here's an idea.

You could conveniently borrow it from a friend or rent it.

You might not want to pay $10 to rent a Wii game, but look at it from this perspective. You're paying $10 to hack a Wii, and you get a good game to play for a week.

You don't need to buy a game to perform a hack that takes roughly 5 minutes.

homebrew being something that can be downloaded?
SO i can play wii roms?
If so can i play jap roms with this?

No Wii roms that I know of. You can burn copies of your games, but from what I read there are some slow reads and errors. I think you can play japanese backups but same problem, slow and glitchy.

Shoma, I think you are confusing homebrew with backups...
2 completely different things.

NO!
I know I'm confusing homebrew with backups!
Im just not too sure what homerews are, I used to think there were just another form of backups.
Which is why i never comment on any homebrew breakthrough.
So, might as well fiz my Achilles heel now,
Let me get this straight: we cant dl "backups" then burn them, then play them on the wii......USing the wii homebrew channel or any of its sub applications!?

Yes, but the more popular games run better than I expected, so no one should dismantle any backup compatibilities.

And to date there are no other software mods like this that will allow you to play backups for the Nintendo Wii?

What's the problem with using TLP?

Yeah just borrow, rent or steal Twilight Princess for all of 5 mins to do the hack. After that you can play backups, load games on your wii, download free wii ware, vc games or whatever your mind wants you to.

I have around 25 backups, 1000 snes games, couple hundrend genesis games on my wii and around 25 vba games all through the homebrew channel.

Its easy dont worry about it

AHa I just got a blockbuster card! lmao!
Perfect timing!

Come to think of it is it possible to have someone just send you there save file and put it on a SD card? and copy it over?

they are blocking it out now. you not seen the errors people have posted?

You can still mod your wii even with firmware 3.4. The problem lies in the auto updating system that you installed when you accepted that update. From now on, nintendo can and will update your system without you knowing and maybe even brick you for it.




Sure you can have the hacked save on your memory card but what good is that if you dont have the game for the glitch

ok, I got the homebrew channel...(that was easier than i thought)
Now how do i add the games?
DO I just throw the roms in there or are emulators needed?

make a folder names apps on the parent folder of the sd card. After that it varies by program. The emulators need a folder to hold the games and saves and the main program(elf, dol) goes in a folder inside of the apps folder.

Echo! you are my wiibrew savior!
Its been a long time since i've Iso/Rom hunted....Hope i still got the ability to find the perfect site in less than a day.

I can play DS games on my wii righT?
if so, could I play DS wifi on them as well?(mario kart racing with others)

No.

yeah sorry shoma like said above, there isnt a ds emulator on the wii. I think all of the older systems are running fine. A Ps1 port is in the works and N64 emulation is coming along slowly

I* was thinking since the wii use da same wi-fi system, that would be a given...
Also its doesnt sound crazy that if it was on da wii, u would be able to play it over wifi, does it?

So is there anyway to stop nintendo from updating systems without ones consent!
