Hacking Others Modding Wii for newbie (i m newbie)

[hatsunemiku]

I have some question about modding a Wii. For first, I bought Wii some days ago for playing old games. There are questions:

~ 1.
I should trust Wii Hacks Guide

~ 2.
I should use LetterBomb or str2hax

~ 3.
What I should to install on modded Wii?

~ 4.
Where can I get some ROMs?

~ 5.
How to later uninstall mods and etc

1. Yes, definitely.
2. WiiBrand is a bit newer, but pretty much the same thing as LetterBomb. Just follow along the guide and you'll know what you need to install to start with.
3. Wii Hacks has you covered. In addition to that, I'd recommend checking out Retroarch and Nintendont.
4. We aren't allowed to link to ROM sites, but a quick Google search should point you in a right direction.
5. I've never used mods so I can't really help you with that one.

Of course, it offers an additional level of brick protection because it loads before Wii System Menu does.
It's even more important in case you can only install BootMii as an IOS, not under boot2 (Wiis with vulnerable boot2 are a bit harder to find these days).

You mean vulnerable boot1 (a vulnerable boot1 allows for the installation of bootmii boot2)

Any guide that promotes modmii (which wii.hacks.guide does) is A+ in my books

Ah, I didn't know that. I merely took the info from Wii Hacks Guide for granted. Thanks for correcting me. ^^

Ah that's a mistake, I'll let them know to correct it when they get a chance
