The Wii Shop channel still works in that you can redownload anything you have previously purchased on that Wii. As far as making an illegal version of it that allows you to illegally get Wii Ware. Someone would have to want to meet Nintendo's lawyers to attempt that. Of course with a modded Wii and a bit of gumption, you can install anything that was ever on the Wii Shop channel onto your Wii.
Well at least I could look at the weather
The Wii Shop is actual like Hell !!

I posted a pic of it a while back, because you can go to it on the wii u. it closed in January of 2019 iirc.

I actually went into the eshop to see about mega man 9 and 10 and final fantasy: the after years dlc. none of them were appearing for me. someone claimed you had to go into the dlc page on the eshop to get mega man's to work, which turned out to be a lie. it was an emunand option from what I remember. I have all of it working now.

I actually still have a copy of the "shoplifting channel" by cwstjdenobs, AFAIK less than half a dozen ppl have it. And it still works in 2021! I don't use it, but it's one of the cooler underground apps that I have in my collection

Proof of concept only, don't ask for the binary. Sorry for the shaky cam video

I feel like if I created a separate topic for this there would be a lot of buzz... but I won't.
OpenShopChannel team is surprisingly still working on it. it will only have homebrew but will be a revival nonetheless, with the music and everything.
Want to contribute, you can go to github.com/OpenShopChannel/WSC-Web which is their in-slow-development thing.

Jan 27, 2021, not even 1.5 months ago... what you smoking?
No, I remember making it. I just never checked back, I also never got notifications about it for some reasonJan 27, 2021, not even 1.5 months ago... what you smoking?
Dude THAT IS AWESOME! I just posted about a day ago asking if anyone had a copy of SLC but no one even knew what it was. Then I came across this. It’s cool to know that it still works.
Will old WADs be available for download or would that be too much of a copyright ticking time bomb? This is Abandonware after all, it's not like the developers are making money off these games, nor Nintendo.
Some of these games need a bigger audience. FAST Racing League, for instance. I don't condone piracy by any means, but if it'll help expose good games to more people when they need it most then I'm absolutely for it, for preservation sake.

Unfortunately my sister stole and wiped my Wii when I was just a kid and so all of my purchases are gone. No tickets in sight. She gave it back literally a day or two before the shutdown. By this point, you couldn't add Wii Points to your account, so if you didn't buy what you needed to buy by 2018 you were screwed.
So I unfortunately can't legally acquire any WiiWare games via the NUS, and I'm worried many people out there still can't.
As these Tickets slowly become more and more inaccessible with the passage of time (accidental Wii brick, Wii formats, etc), and as the NUS gets inevitably closer to shutting down, I don't believe "just download your already bought copy from the NUS" is a viable preservation option.

@Xdqwerty, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is the Japanese version of the game, different settings/characters/songs but otherwise identical mechanics. I played that before I knew about Elite Beat Agents lol. Both fantastic games https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!_Tatakae!_Ouendan+1 -
