Just downloading the homebrew channel won't get you to play illegally downloaded games

Also, if your Wii is a newly bought Wii, be careful as it might have a DVD drive that doesn't read copied discs.

Did you actually try it?

For backup launchers to work, you need to install a cIOS
And before you can do that, you need a trucha patched IOS

That guide does have everything you need. Just e-mail the address for the files and follow the steps. No other way to do it...

Dude just follow this guide. It mods a 4.2u console and its easy if you sit down and follow the instructions step by step. Don't just read it, think its too hard, and throw it away, it works and does what you need. Modding a Wii isn't gonna be as easy as "oh you just do this in one step", you're modifying and working around the code Nintendo wrote. Does that sound easy? Follow the guide and you'll see it's not nearly as hard as you think it seems.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
