Wii Homebrew Channel Video

[Dr Eggman]

Cool! Maybe we can make a channel for controlling GC Games with a Classic controller.

Even we can maybe define the Image and sound in the ELF File! So, like the PSP, it (the channel) will look like we want it to!


Anyway, if they can make a homebrew channel, then i CANNOT wait until someone make a Custom Firmware!!!

Awesome news Hopefully they'll find a way without Zelda

I wouldn't mind having to do it initially but would definately be a pain if I can't remove the hack later on for some Zelda goodness.

I'm probably the only one that doesn't think this is a completely good thing... Custom channels means hacked channels, and hacked channels mean pirated channels. Once people start editing the VC games to play on any Wii (even if they haven't bought it) then Nintendo will have good reason to crack down on our progress.

Well, look at ALL homebrew. All have a downside. A unsigned code side, and a Piracy side.

Nintendo will be making boatloads of money either way.

I know this is a work in progress but if you watch the end of the video it says its waiting to recieve data. Where is it waiting to receive it from is my question. Could Team Twiizers be working on a way to "stream" data from another network device (say using tftp)?

If so that would be most excellent since I can use cheap storage (hard drives) to keep copies of whatever homebrew I want to run.

It reminds me of the Phantasy Star Online hacks.

You only need it initially when this comes out

There is no way opening a homebrew ability without opening a way to pirate games... Imho, i don't want loose a homebrew option just because some retards think they have to pirate games. Also, since modchips made pirated games possible long time ago this is not such a big deal.
