Good evening,
I am really hoping someone(s) can help me out here.
First I'm not overly tech savvy, I understand basics and can figure out how to do things, but often the lingo/terms will throw me off. So please try to keep that in mind when reading my issue and when trying to reply. I'm sorry if I come off as ignorant if I reply/answer with questions on a simple question.
I have an old Wii. I purchased it used about 8 years ago and it was already modded with home brew and and external drive with over 500 games on it.
About 4 years ago, my curious son, who was 8, took the SD card out and lost it.
I have had the system packed away for 4 years now and want to bust it back out and play it. So here are my starting off questions/info I know and dont know...
No clue what all was on the SD card so no idea what I will need on a new one.
No idea of what version the system is running as I have not updated it since it was in my possession and not sure when the previous owner did.
Would I be able to update it? I remeber being told I cant connect to the internet/update as it will brick the system.
If need be, I can hook everything up and get information for anyone to try and figure out even a starting point at getting this back up and running.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and to any information/assistance that is given in advance.
I just wanna play some mario party!!
