Hacking Wii backup loader......looks real!

Rock Raiyu · Sep 12, 2008

This one looks real. I can't wait for it to come out. *starts downloading Wii Games*

Wow nice work there, I completely trust you after your last homebrew release (w/ Waninkoko) was real and you werent lying (even though many people at the time thought you were *cough*Teq*cough)

YEA POUNDLAND!!! HAHA, there pretty good for there price,

also a new vid will be up soon with sound, but it wa a sync job cos the mics were on my laptop, and i was useing the same camera. give it like an hour or something.

also, this wont be released yet, as there are still things to be fixed, which are being worked on now. this was a POC

kknn · Sep 12, 2008

So... did you do this all by youself? Or did you just do some beta-testing + vid for someone?

Also, if you are the first to do it, why not tell how it was done?
From what you said it seems like it involved patching the original isos + custom ios right? Maybe patching the dvd-reading functions to something else?

Can you please share with us the details? It's not like someone's going to beat you now. You were already first.
Plus it would make it look even more real

the 1st disk was mario kart, or galaxy i cant remember, i was just showing that i cant boot backups, because i dont have a drivechip, i used the chess game because the game ISO has to be made in a special way for it to load. wii chess was about 24 megs so it was easy to work with

hope that helps

So, going on the assumption that your video is real. Will your method work on other Games? And when do you plan on releasing (or get pee'd off with everyone on GBATemp and 'stop' the project

)

yea it will work with other games, but they have to be modded at the moment, so if you backup anything dont burn them yet. release date isnt set yet, im still testing stuff for this, im not saying now omg backup loader mine. its like the TP hack, it came out when it was ready, half arsed apps are no good, beta apps are not good for the public either.

slimpyman · Sep 12, 2008

he seems like a good guy. i buy games i know are worth my money. i dont want to, and will never want to buy all the half wit put together bullcrap on the wii... i will send you 60 dollars when you release a credible working version, homie.

Sweeday · Sep 12, 2008

I put a wiikey on my wii a week ago, I'm starting to think I did wrong ! lol

WiiCrazy · Sep 12, 2008

I can confirm it for you and for everyone...
Since probably it's a two (maybe three with custom ios) piece thing... you can send one part of it either patcher or the loader to a reliable member here.

Since my wii is bricked and already chipped, it's of no use to me... I can dissasemble the thing in ida and confirm for everyone.

Even if I send it to someone (of course I won't, why do I care) , it will not work with just the loader or with just the patcher.

Solid proof... for a week I'm gazing at the freeloader's apploader

Why release a shoddy POC? People shouldn't post until they release.

Arm the Homeless · Sep 13, 2008

I'd prefer if they were to release a beta version or even a PoC which only plays 5 minutes of a backup like the Homebrew Channel first beta.

Then at least you'd know it's real.

So would Nintendo. It would give them a headstart at patching it before it even is finished.

They probably wouldn't care especially for this but of course they will probably tighten up their security and measures in general...
And patching a game and burning and playing is too much for an average user... think there is already region stuff and you'll double it with the patched and unpatched thing.. 6-8 versions for the same game... It can only be a toy in few peoples hands... few people in between those who mod and do not mod their wii.

@Linkinworm or @waninkoko : what do you think about my suggestion?

JimmyBobAlex · Sep 13, 2008

Take your time and perfect it. Truthfully I was hoping it wouldn't ever come because the last thing I need is a new stack of wii games to add to the mountain that I have already of other games. Playing games seems almost like work when you have so many to get through, kind of takes some of the joy out.

what im going to say about that is, nintendo will be trying to workout what the hell is happening, this is way over there head.

zidane_genome · Sep 13, 2008

when this is all said and done and released, will we have to mod EVERY disc before burning it, or will there be a work around for a true softmod?

for now you will have the mod the disk, this mod is still being testing tho, as soon as i can backup mario galaxy again, it wont be too hard to mod tho, just a waist of disks for the most part.

anything's better than nothing. a POC with source code could be developed by someone else, and valuable additions could be made to the software. this is the great thing about free and open source software. having said that, i do understand that something in such an early stage as this might be better off left private for a while. but once it works, to a reasonable extent, source code would be fantastic.
and well done linkinworm!

And that's one of the reasons I use Linux.
