Not really piracy. You gotta own a physical copy to do all the magic. Not what comes to mind when I think of piracy. But it can be done. To play backups.

You don't have to own a physical copy.

Someone does need to have a physical copy to dump and create fpkgs.

If you find the fpkgs (Google) then you can install them to your hearts content.

Not really. The sites I stumbled across have mostly dead links or100 million links /s and that takes the cake.

torrent sites are filled with pkg files... download one and install it... what is there to not understand?

The. "Official PKGS won't run unless turned Into fpkg or they'll fail to work" like everyone's telling me. That's not how I remember piracy working.

Why do you assume he's telling you to torrent an official pkg? There are fpkgs all over public trackers.

The rules clearly state that we cannot link to pirated content, I am not leaking to pirated content.
That site is a news site/forum just like this place.
Maybe people over there could provide more info.

I downloaded a presigned pkg to test this. While I had a hard time finding a reliable source (and still didn't) I did find that the ones I installed that worked were still called .pkg, and not .fpkg, so you may be looking right at them and not knowing it's the right thing.

This is actually a valid point, most of us use fpkgs as a term but we forget to specify that the extension isn't actually .fpkg it is just .pkg.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
