So I have softmodded a few Wii's before and have always had the safety of bootmii as boot2 but not this time it seems to I want to make sure I do it right as this is for a couple of children and their ma and pa can't afford that many games so I am doing this pro bono and tossing in a free 40gb USB hdd as well. I just can't afford to brick the Wii in the process. Now I have always been lucky and gotten Wii's on 4. something firmwares and I work with that. This one is on firmware 3.4 and that simply will not do. Now I know that the firmware itself is not important but the IOS files installed but I want to get to 4.1U then I will update all the IOS files, install priiloader and block all updates from kiddies.
Now I have TBR'd the Wii and installed cIOS rev 17 and Hermes v4 (as I hate v5) DVDx (for a media center as I am networking it to their PC as well and giving them all the kids shows I have for my little girl, they are blown away that their little Wii could do such things
the only game they have I kid you not is still Wii Sports and it is an older deck as you can tell by the firmware. Its time to get these little ones some new games huh?) and installed USBloader GX and NEOgamma. Now I need the ability that comes with the newer system menu of loading VC games from the SD card. So here is my problem, fire up Dop-Mii you say? Well like this family money is tight on my end as well and I don't have internet per say. I just tether to my cell phone when I need to browse the web with my laptop and the Wii doesn't support Ad-hoc connections like every other device in the world that has wifi.
So I did a little and fired up NUSD and got what I think are the right files I need to get this Wii to system menu 4.1U. I have attached a picture of all of the files. If someone could please be so kind to let me know if I have all the files I need to have a successful update and not brick these little kids Wii? And also all I need to do is fire up YAWMM and check all of them? That is what I recall doing when I went from 4.0 to 4,1 if I recall just to see how it was done but it has been so long. Anyhow I, well we thank you for your time.
