Dear Gbatempers,

I have a Wii U and I am trying to launch WiiWare titles from the vWii on USB loader GX (a homebrew, not a forwarder/channel).

This is my setup:

USB loader GX rev 1262, IOS 249 (rev 21010) + AHB (d2x v10beta53-alt-vWii base56). - Taken from the USB loader GX credits menu.
I believe these are my cioses, installed from d2x cios installer mod 2.2:
cIOS v10 beta53 alt vWii, cIos base 56, cIos slot 249.
cIOS v10 beta53 alt vWii, cIos base 57, cIos slot 250.
cIOS v10 beta53 alt vWii, cIos base 58, cIos slot 251.

The mii maker channel boots fine when I selected it from the USB loader GX and have only the "EmuNand channels" option selected.

I have dumped my nand to Emunand on my SD card. The path is sd:/nand/.
The wiiware games pop up under "EmuNand Channels" (installed from USB Loader GX), yet when I launch them they boot to a black screen (no health and safety warning or anything like that). I am certain the Wiiware games are correct for my region.

Thanks in advance
Happy new year everyone.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
