Hacking Can I install Wii Channel wads(Netflix, Photo Channel, etc.) on vWii?

[Jwiz33]

I read that it was safe as long as the banner was proper(like on the Wii), but I wanted to be sure. Can I just get a Netflix .wad and install it?
The reason I want to is because to use Netflix in Wii U mode I have to update from 5.4.0, but I don't want to.

EDIT: Yes, you can. I just read this:

if you install a WAD of the Wii Netflix Channel, it should work as the channel does not check if it is a vWii or not. I personally would not do that as the picture quality of the Wii one sucks compared to it's Wii U channel.
other than that, as long as you can source a good WAD for it, it is perfectly safe to install it.

My question is, can you install any virtual console game WAD on vWII, or does it has to be vWiI specific?

Is it like Netflix in a way that it just works on both wii and vWII?

Any wad, as long as the banner isn't corrupted or anything.

Then why is there a thread for vWII specific channel forwarders?

But yay awesome, I'm gonna install just N64 games since it's impossible to emulate them perfectly. Wii64 isn't perfect and can crash anytime (Happened to be with Banjo Kazooie).

So I have Banjo Kazooie on Loadiine instead.
