As topic, looking to borrow someones copy of Twilight Princess so I can use the exploit to install the Homebrew channel.

Will return as soon as I'm done.

Basically somebody engineered a way to make a "Homebrew channel" similar to the ones you get with the games and nintendo ones. Ie Weather channel etc. But this one allows you to run homebrew, custom created games and apps for the Wii. It previously required a gamecube memory card reader but now can be done via the SD. Basically you download a save game for Twilight Princess, put it on your SD Card and load it. Speak to a guy in the game and because your horse has a ridiculously long name it causes a stack overflow and you can then install this homebrew channel.

Quite funny really, but I sold my Twilight Princess copy donkeys ago and want to give it a bash as it's a "softmod"

Lets you download and play all the virtual console games, although due to Nintendo's ridiculous ability to only store these on the memory on the console, and not on SD cards, you have a pretty low limit of how many games you can have, stupid when you see the amount of channels you have to fill, as you couldnt fill them all.

It was impossible for about 3 days, then they just pushed an update...

Also if you get Wii Backup Loader, you can run "Backup" games ;) Not every game though theres a list available. Quite a few though :)

Hacked this last night. Was a bit of a PITA. Lots of flitting back and forth from PC to Wii via SD but done it. Currently having a go at Wii Music, works with no glitches at all :)
