I believe Gateway does simple checks such as for the hash of certain games like DevMenu to prevent them from being used. These are easily circumvented.
However a more insidious check is that the GW kernel will force quit any application that attempts to access certain services. If you manage...
Its likely possible to patch the console to appear to be running Japanese firmware. Are you sure its locked to the console region and not the ROM region though?

I believe scr is a write once register that is reset to default after h_reset. Precisely which flag was set is irrelevant because it cannot be disabled by a simple write, which is why f0f used reset fuzzing.

Comex essentially gave all the steps to find WebKit vulnerabilities. Yes the latest update has a newer version of WebKit, but it still has a few use after free vulnerabilities iirc.
Unfortunately web hacking is not exactly my strong suit so I have next to no idea as to how to actually leverage...
I had not noticed that EMBEDDED6XX was dependent on BROKEN_ON_SMP . I greatly appreciate this tip. Since then I removed this dependency and my image compiled fine. (This is using your 3.10y repo).

My changes went as far as modifying the wii.dts file to have 3 cpus as well as modifying the wii_defconfig to have SMP=y . Minor changes so far :)
I am using the gc-linux from this repo : http://git.infradead.org/users/herraa1/gc-linux-2.6.git

I was aware of the vmlinux issue, that was the bug I was referring to :)
I'm going to push out a new build tonight some time that should fix the issue, I'm just glad the arm changes are working properly now.

Can you try the same method but replace the old boot.elf with the following? I enabled debug prints which should give me a better idea of what exactly went wrong.
Thank you so much for the help by the way :)

From what I recall the Wii U actually has 2 flash systems, one for vWii(512mb) and the new eMMC that has the cafe filesystem. The eMMC can just be dumped/flashed with an SD reader.

I would certainly advise against enabling the nand write feature. Quite honestly there is no reason to enable a feature that exists only to brick the system.

Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.
I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet
Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
