Is there a tutorial to put photo channel on my vwii cause I don’t want to brick it like an idiot…
Step one: Ensure your vWii is hacked and has The Homebrew Channel (or HBC for short) installed. This typically requires the Wii U as a whole to be hacked and have CFW installed, which if anything is even better.
Step two: Obtain a WAD of the Photo Channel, then place it on your SD card. You'll also want something like WiiModLite to install it.
Step three: Open HBC from the Wii Menu, launch a WAD manager (like WiiModLite) and install the Photo Channel wad. Congrats!

If you have trouble with any part of what I said, feel free to let me know here and I'll try my best to help.
Hello, I was trying the same things as op, but whenever I try to install it, it says I need IOS61, do you know how to install it or if it's even possible? Thanks in advance! :yayu:

Odd... None of those would have touched IOS 61, so it seems like it's just. Missing somehow? I'll have to look into this further, it's been a while since I've messed about with vWii stuff
Thx, just found this thread which is kinda similar (instead of Photo Channel it's Mother 3) and maybe it can help a bit, but the solution was using emulators, which doesn't work in this case.

I did a syscheck and found out there is no IOS61 installed, not even a stub. so I guess the solution is to install IOS61 via a wad. But idk if it's safe, bcuz when I looked at the wiki, saw that there is no vWii IOS61 version unlike other IOSses. So I think the safest option is to try installing other Photo Channel versions, I'll try that tomorrow and come back with results.

EDIT: it seems like someone made a modified version of Photo Channel 1.1 that works on the vWii, if anyone wants it, the Google Drive link is here: Photo Channel 1.1 vWii
