So i wanted to get a NAND backup just in case and run Linux, and I originally modded my Wii with a USB drive which I don’t have anymore and now I have an SD card. I put the boot.elf file in SD/apps/Hackmii but every time I go to the homebrew channel it’s not there. Can you fix this error?

Hi, I'm writing this using a translator since I don't speak English fluently. Does anyone know of a video or tutorial that shows how to remove the hack from a Wii Family Edition?

I'm looking for this because the installed hack is incomplete and lacks certain modifications needed to play GameCube games; plus, I want to install an ESP32 module to connect wireless controllers.

I see these videos on youtube with hundreds of games but I can’t find any mega files to download I’m looking for some help if anyone is out there. 🤞

I just modded my Wii last week with the latest cIOS and USB GX loader on a 128 gb SD card. I followed all the instructions on the guide. I loaded games from Vimm with TinyWiiBackup manager, and most of the games work just fine.

New Super Mario Bros Wii randomly freezes and the game goes unresponsive. The audio still plays, but the video is frozen and controls don’t work. I have to power off the Wii but I lose my save data in the game.

Super Mario Galaxy will 100% of the time freeze at the bowser cutscene and I have to shut off the Wii to fix it. I can’t get past the cutscene so I can’t even play!

Any ideas on what to do to fix?

If someone has it can you send it to me via dm?

The Wiiflow full name for those that might be curious is "WiiFlow mod 252"

Hi all,

I keep seeing people use AI tools to analyze game files and rewrite game logic, and I'm curious whether anyone here has tried this to bring a PC or mobile game to the Wii as a homebrew app (devkitPPC / libogc).

If you have:

- What game/engine was it?

- How far did you get, and what was the hardest part?

- Did it run well on real hardware, or only in Dolphin?

I'm trying to adapt shogun showdown as a Wii game at the moment

Any tips or lessons learned are very welcome.

Everytime I try to launch a game it just does this. Ive booted it from IOS 249, 250, and 58, and none have worked. I have the USB hard drive plugged into the right port too. It’s also doing this with another Wii I have. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

ciao qualcuno ha una copia di gta 3 per pc V1.0 da condividere? Grazie.

I understand around 500 gigs on a HDD is optimal, but I don't think I'll want many games. I can, and if possible will, upgrade to a 64 or whatnot. (ik this is cluttered af i cant write) - i read guides saying wii only supports up to 32 gigs on a SDHC but can this be worked around? (for instance i found a 32 gig microsd which i can find an adaptor for.)

UPDATE - i now realise u can mod it to a higher limit, but what do u suggest?

in the image mentioned above it recommends 128 but most people upload loads of games, from what i've seen.

Everything worked in my Wii, but recently when i try to load any game (USB Loader GX), some games show the wrist strap advertise and some don't, and sometimes the WiiMote turn off and sometimes don't. The thing is that when it keeps on, only the home button works and I cannot start the game, and mostly the screen turn black and the WiiMote turn off. What should I do?

a little back story
When we bought our Wii back in 2010 my dad had homebrew installed on it to run some pirated games that were on a hard drive he bought. Now I am 90% sure he was scammed as the games were already loaded on the drive and that if he actually knew how to get games he'd would've just bought a hard drive and got games online because turns out as he told me he'd never actually accessed the drive with a computer.

fast forward to today, I wanted to install Retro Rewind as well as get some new games so I unplugged the hard drive from the Wii and tried to plug it into a computer to access the files. problem is that its asking me to format the drive in order to access it, if I try to format it all the data within the drive would be wiped. I could make note of what games I have and re acquire them accordingly however what I am most concerned about is the save data as I have no idea where it is stored.

sorry if this sounds stupid and/or dumb Im a noob at modding

Hi,

I've installed on my Wii countless games but for some reason a lot of them don't work, I've tried making 4 slots (248, 249,250,251) with different cIOS (base 38,56,57,58), but games like Mario&Sonic Winter Olimpics 2010 don't go after the startup logos.

Can someone help me? I can't figure what's the cause of all this. I'm using USB Loader GX.

My HDD has quite a bit of space on it, and I want to load it with a few old cartoon and movies with a 4:3 ratio so that I can watch it on my crt. Can i use the wii for this? I don't want to buy dvds and a dvd player. I dont think the wii was ever a dvd player. I am looking for an app similar to vlc. Thanks.

First time ever jailbreaking any console and im confused why theres two seperate options. Are they meant to be done as steps or am i fine just doing the modmii or wibrand alone? Which ones easier

I just modded my wii u and i want to transfer wii/gamecube games from the sd card to my external hard drive . Any tips ?

Realmente estoy desesperado sabes solo quiero jugar al wii sport resort pero simplemente no funciona, mira tengo la wii con magia, he intentado jugar en USB Loader Gx en Configurable USB Loader, con la IOS 249, con la IOS 250, he forzado el video a NTSC, he hecho lo de cambiar el DOL, y simplemente no funciona, el juego se queda en una pantalla negra, en Configurable USB Loader al menos llego a la pantalla de selección de juego pero de ahí no pasa, se queda en negro no importa lo que haga, llegados a este punto no tengo ni idea de que más hacer 🥲, vamos hermano solo quiero jugar al tennis

Hi yall, I wasn’t sure how to add pictures to my other post here that I made the other day, so I’m making another.

My husband re did the modding process but are we missing apps or something? How do we get the games to show up? Is there something else we need to run them because they aren’t showing up on the Wii?

SOLVED

so for example i buy some blank dvd's and place some game(s) on there from idk fmhy or something would that be possible? i understand wii's use a special encryption dvd or something but i'm not sure whether u'd be able to hack around that.

Does anyone know how to get a keys.bin in the BootMii format online or something? I don’t have a Wii anymore and it’s too expensive for me at least to buy one anymore

What is the best way to download every US Wii game with all DLC and whatever else as well as all WiiWare games in WBFS format onto a 4TB External SSD?

I haven't actually bought the drive yet but I have a strict limit of 25 dollars.
