Homebrew What can I do with my Wii?

[AfanGotTheWiiOn26December]

I'm not bored of it, I cannot find anything to do. RSSMii, RiiTag, WiiLink24, RiiConnect24, USBLoader GX, 42 WADs on my Wii, every emulator (nes to DS), WiiWare, PriiLoader, BootMii, RC24 Custom theme, Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, 5 Web browsers, going to buy a WiiMote for my younger brother, countless fowarders, all that great stuff. Any ideas on what to do? Maybe make a website to download Wii WADs that works with the Wii? Maybe add more games? Maybe question my life decisions? Get a Wii Balance Board?

Not sure what you're asking here.. If you got everything set up, why not go play some games? Isn't that the reason you went through all this for?

I think you missed the EOF.

On another idea, install a new Wii Menu theme, brick it, and use your Wii as a paperweight. That's something you could do.

I'll be using my Wii mainly to play GCN games and some Wii titles too.

For folks who want to play GCN, but don't have an official GCN controller (or a reliable third party one) they can always use the Wii Classic Controller (via Nintendont) or a Brooks adapter to use a DualShock 4, Xbox One, DualSense controller.

Just don't buy the shitty generic unbranded GCN controllers as those will last for a few months if you're lucky and then time to buy another one.

play with it, just don't let your mom catch you in the bathroom.

@godreborn would know more in that case, I guess as he's the one who recommended me Brooks.

Yes, plug your DS3/DS4 controller with either a usb cable (to the wii), or using a bluetooth dongle.

install them all. there are two places I know of where the entire wiiware catalogue is. create an emunand in usb loader gx, then install the entire set of wads from within usb loader gx. unlimited space then.

It's that simple? Cool.

DualSense too with a cable? I'd prefer it wireless. I'm trying to buy a DualSense controller for a low price, but obviously have not found a single one (unless I'd not mind stick drift lol).

Not sure if Nintendont supports it, probably not (as it hasn't been updated for a while)..

How do I install WADs to the emunand?

Watched a random video, so I assign a directory (any directory), put my WADs in and that is it?

Dont watch videos, as you best go and then ask them for support. And there is a search button at the top (ya, its not named google), but iam sure you will find some quailified answers. As you find google more usefull enter in the searchbar site:gbatemp.net install wad emunand

Try installing Windows XP on it for fun lol

Nintendont just recently got an update to v6.500 (01/20/2023)

Notes:

* sanitize WiiUGamepadSlot if it is corrupted
* DualSense controller config
