havenwaters posted:Yes and no. Yes in that we now have the ability to inject other stuff into Wii U Wii Eshop games (like xenoblade). But that still teeechnically goes through vWii so if your vWii is broken they probably won't work. Can you use the gamepad controls for injected games that supported the classic controller? This is huge news if so.

So we got a shortlist of the good 3DS homebrew? Any good GBA and/or PSX emulators?

(While there are GBA emulators, they don't run great. VC injects do have the drawback that since they change the system's mode, there is no close-lid sleep mode, and other DS/DSi/3DS features don't work while playing them either.)

Eons ago, around the Letterbomb days for the Wii in 2010-2011, I remember downloading a homebrew program that would let you put the game disc in the tray, install it in an external hard drive (which removed loading times almost completely), and it'd also download the game name/box cover and put them all neatly together into one menu. Does anyone remember what it was? Does it work on the Wii U's vWii mode?

Updated from A9LH to B9S, and man, that was really easy.

You do have to prep the external drive on your PC first, but the app does the rest.

I finally did the emunand to B9S transfer. Feels a lot nicer now. Probably shouldn't have been  this long considering how easy it was. The only thing that was annoying was transferring all the data in my almost full SD card two times.

11.6 is out. 11.5 payloads appear to still work.

Yeah, the home menu was not updated, which means old payloads will still work. What was updated was the eShop applet, the NS (nintendo shell), the usual friends module update (with a version increment so old systems can't use internet services anymore) some error strings, and some version strings. Nothing much interesting. It was probably literally a "stability update".

Pretty sure while A9LH could theoretically be detected and forcefully removed at the risk of bricking a system as it is corrupted firmware, B9S is completely impossible to detect as it has a valid signature and looks no different than normal firmware to the boot9 bootrom. If you have B9S you can update always without issue. If you have A9LH just update to B9S already so you can stop worrying.

The RSA verification bug that makes homebrew signatures look legit to the bootrom is fixed in pretty much all other implementations (quote from the exploit author: "Checks against the sighax vulnerability are present in firmware as early as 0.14 (1.0.0-0), from January 2011." ). So, if Nintendo ever introduces a firmware to check the signatures of the currently installed firmware on NAND in running FIRM instead of the hardware bootrom (which would detect Boot9Strap, since it fails a proper check), they'd have the ability to brick your onsole or something. This is unlikely to happen and it would probably be patched out within hours/days with a new CFW version that disables that check - but do you really want to be the one who updated without the OK from the guys who know what they're talking about and risk your console? Always check if it's OK to update before you do. edit: if you're still running an EmuNAND setup (like me), you're always safe of course, and can update whenever, you only risk your EmuNAND and can always boot your real system NAND if something goes wrong HenryEx fucked around with this message at 22:17 on Sep 19, 2017 |

This injector lets you add sleep mode to GBA games: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-ultimate-gba-vc-injector-for-3ds.438057/ Not sure how well it works, though. You have to hit a key combo to put the game to sleep.

I just put it in my install folder and then used wupinstaller. Now I'm playing Ikaruga on my Wii U and it's awesome. (Though make sure to go into options and turn Memory Card Emulation on, or you won't be able to save your hard fought high scores.)

Does anyone remember what it was? Does it work on the Wii U's vWii mode? I don't have a Wii U, so I have no idea if anything like that exists for it, or if any of the old Wii programs work on a Wii U somehow. But I do have a program set up on my Wii that does this. The program I have is called WiiFlow. It needed extra things that none of my other homebrew apps did, though I don't remember the entire process. I do remember that it required I add some "custom" IOS files to unused IOS slots ("custom" here meaning "made by some guy on the internet"). I assume these custom files were needed because the normal versions of IOS don't include support for loading games via SD or USB. Once I got it set up though, it's exactly as you describe: insert disc, hit button, wait a while (it's kinda slow) to rip the game, then boom you have a nice menu with box art and you can just click the game and load it. It's always worked for me, but I don't have many Wii games, so there might be some that don't play nice with it, YMMV.

I'd use bootntr before that.

It's like the 3DS, officially it can't go above 32GB because it lacks an exFAT driver and the SD card spec says anything >32GB must be exFAT. ...but you can ignore the spec, format larger cards to FAT32 and they work just fine.

Yeah I got a 64 SDHC card working on my Wii after formating it to Fat32. Just probably use a software for that, as using DOS will just have it fail at the last step.

Of course hacking a Wii isn't as involved as the 3ds stuff if it's just a Wii (and not vWii on a wii u). Use letterbomb to install the homebrew channel, install cIOS stuff for usb loaders, grab homebrew stuff if you want it (nes, snes, genesis emulators mainly). Rip your games to the usb hard-drive with the wii disc drive and the usb loader, etc.

Can you run everything for Wii off an SD card now or do you pretty much need an external hdd? Looking for a minimalist solution and don't really need to keep 50 isos so less storage doesn't bother me.

I think you can run wii games off a sd card but I'm not sure on the speed of wii sd card reader and if it'll be fast enough or whatever for all games.

You technically can, but you really shouldn't. SD card speeds aren't really good enough to play backups from.
