Why 9.2 or 9.4, but not 9.6? If you're prepared to update to 9.4 (a non exploitable firmware), you might as well update to 9.6.
9.2 is definitely the sweet spot. As suggested, buy Smash and update with that.

The active cheats i am trying to use will only work for versions between 9.2 and 9.4 In 9.6 the patch blocks it

I'm in the same situation. Bought a Gateway card and am going to update the browser to the 9.x exploitable version which should let me use the exploits on rxTools emuNAND.

If you're a pokemon player, bare in mind that any update supplied by a game cart will prevent web exploits from working.

Because the cart updates don't include the browser.

To update browser, if you have some way to install cias already, just download the 7.1-9.2 browser with 3dnus.

Since you're on 7.2 you should already have the right browser version. If you want to be sure you could downgrade to 4.2 with the gateway web thing. Then use pbt-cfw or similar to install the right browser version from 3dnus to sysnand. Then update the rest of the way with smash rev1. Unless you feel gutsy and wanna hardmod, then you could risk updating the whole way with CIAs

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?

    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
