i have them in the wbfs folder in my usb and everything. also, it detects the usb drive, it just dosen't show the games on it.
also, is there some way to download them to the regular wii menu?

if you mean full wii games, it would probably be too slow. the wifi in the wii is pretty bad, like ds level bad. haha ethernet might be better, but I don't know what speed it uses. I'm sure it's not a gigabit connection like the ps3, which came out the same year.

there's an option at the top that determines what's displayed. see if wii games has a checkmark
there's another problem. with some of the roms i downloaded, they have blank channels with no main channel banner animations, and when i open them, it just returns to the wii menu. what's going on?

also, one other thing: the gba rom i downloaded on it is just plain not appearing at all! i have it in [usb1 (the drive itself)/games/(game folder)] what am i doing wrong?
gba roms are not games lol you need to use an homebrew gba emulator like mgba or something lol the only games that run like games regularly on usbloader gx is wii games, any other type of games needs the apropriate programs on the sd card/usb like gba emulator and etc.
