I just noticed this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/custom-...ection-for-system-menu-backup-loaders.325003/ and I am using a regular Wii (NOT a Wii U)

but alas, there's no tutorial on how to use these forwarders.

First off, the thread says, near the top: ''The Channels will make it easier to launch Gamecube games directly from the System Menu (Doesn't require any USB or Disc loaders).'' so where should I put the ISOs on either an SD Card or USB Stick?

Secondly, this caught my attention, also near the top of the thread: ''DML/DM is the only prerequisite for the channels to work on the Wii.'' What does that means? Should I install DIOS MIOS to make the forwarders work?

Last, is there anything I might have forgotten? The WADs are installed on my Wii, but they do nothing... yet.

(Do note that I rip the GC games myself, I'm not getting them from some ROM site 'cause they're filled with viruses and/or malware, and I only want to play games I paid for. And sorry if this sounds like a n00b question... I just wasted 6 hours trying to figure out how the forwarders works...)

Sorry for necrobump :P

Not sure if this helps but @libertyernie made a good tutorial for make Nintendont autoboot (auto load & start) a GameCube game, here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...ader-for-games-skip-the-emulator-menu.520525/

If you also want to make forwarders or game autoloaders for old games (NES, SNES, N64, GBA, Arcade, etc...), this another tutorial by me will also work: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...ls-of-your-favorite-retro-games-d-wii.602640/

Hope this helps ;)

    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I don't identify as anything, unless I need to get on a plane then I show ID

    @SylverReZ, I meant that I read that they can also identify as what i mentioned

    @SylverReZ, and thus that would make me non binary since i feel like a blend of both male and female

    @Xdqwerty only time will tell, what/whom you are. At 14, its a bit early to "Define" yourself. :)
