The Nintendo Wii was not one of my favorite systems during its life but it is one of my favorite systems to run homebrew on! The Wii was easily moddable through most of its life leading to an amazing homebrew scene that is still going today. If you have a Wii sitting around that hasn't been modded now is the time to do so! This video will take you through the process of modding the Nintendo Wii using the ModMii installer. I also have a segment for basic USB Loader GX setup for your backed-up Wii and GameCube titles!

Excellent guide! Aside from the lack of Game Boy Player support, the Wii is my preferred way of playing GameCube games since I can use virtual memory cards with Nintendont and because some titles have a performance boost when they're run with Nintendont too.

Best tutorial so far on doing, just did my old Wii thank you. How do you add virtual console games? do I need a wad manager ?
@ArchadesGames
@ArchadesGames 12 күн бұрын
Yes, you use a wad manager like during the initial setup. You can keep the one mod mii gives you and be set.

@@ArchadesGames thank you. That worked. I just need to figure out why I get far less save block space when I installed them via a USB drive. My SD shows the full 32GB worth of save blocks. My 1TB USB drive said it was full with just a few wiiware games installed. Think I need to have my wad folder on the SD card and not the USB drive.

@@ArchadesGames Worked out what its doing, when I install wareware game with YAWM it installs it into the Wii memory so I only have around 1400 block to use. If I then move the game to SD card it moves over but the channel no longer shows up on the Wii system channel menu. Data management shows its on the SD card but channel does not show up. Not sure how to make the game appear again.
