The Scene had to create a freeshop after Nintendo disabled the purchase of Wii Points in the Wii Shop Channel, this happened on March 26, 2018.

By this I mean that we can not legally download our WiiWare or Virtual Console without the wii points, the most advisable if Nintendo disabled buying Wii Points in the Wii Shop Channel, is to create a freeshop after March 26, 2018.

Because nobody created a freeshop after March 26, 2018, where Nintendo disabled buying Wii Points in the Wii Shop Channel?
 
I think it is because you can install wiiware wads and vc games wads by the MultiModManager or something like this. So there is just no need for freeshop.

But installing WADs with Multi Mod Manager or WAD Manager is not directly from the wii shop.

More than anything, we must search for the WAD from the Wiiware / Virtual Console that you want through the Internet.

Example: Search in Google, '' WAD from My Pokemon Ranch or WAD from Super Mario Bros. 3 ''.

When a FreeShop can look for simple the Wiiware or the Virtual Console game that you want through the CDN of the Wii Shop Channel server, similar to the FreeShop of 3DS.

A FreeShop would be necessary for Wii, why?

  • It would be quite safe with Multi Mod Manager or WAD Manager, since there is a risk to install Corrupt WADs or Uninstall an important title of the system. Like the System Menu or the IOS that it uses, they can cause bricks to our Wii.
  • Increase the experience that you install WADs with Multi Mod Manager or WAD Manager, as you would have downloaded them from the Wii Shop Channel.
If a FreeShop could be released after March 26, 2018, we only had 10 months before the Wii Shop Channel closed, our FreeShop would stop working after January 31, 2019, the day I closed the Wii Shop Channel, due to which our FreeShop connects through the servers of the Wii Shop Channel, it would stop working and we would move to install WADs with Multi Mod Manager or WAD Manager, it would lower the experience of each Wii user to simply download the Wiiware or Console games Virtual from FreeShop.
 
You can't download anything anyway. The Wii shop have closed it's doors.
 
They didn't. They enabled it for their usage. So what you ask is a Wii Eshop with pirated content basically?
But linuxares, the Wii Shop Channel will be the last official service to use WiiConnect24, according to Wikipedia:

At the moment, the last remaining online service for the Wii is the Internet Channel.

Will the Wii Shop Channel have to do with RiiConnect24?

Ha! I knew I saw them post it already, still can't tell if Nancy is a troll, or just really, really, really ignorant? Not sure if that's the right word, but was the nicest I could come up with
I'd say both, considering he/she was already suspended for creating pointless threads across the forums. I think this one about the unnecessary revival of wiishop takes the cake.
