Hello !

I’ve homebrewed my Wii and want to know if it’s possible to transfer games from an SD card to the Wii’s internal storage. Can I treat the Wii’s internal memory like a hard drive for game downloads? If so, what steps do I need to follow, and are there any risks?

Thanks!:)

I'm sorry? Is there only 528 megabytes in the Wii?

Yes! You expected to had Gigas or something?

ALTHOUGH, what you're looking for can be solved easily by setting up an "emuNAND" which basically "clones" the Wii in whatever SD card or HDD size you decide to use.
So it can be utilized to bypass system memory.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
