1. Is Modmii the way to go, or is there some 'more preferred' way these days? Yes, modmii is the easiest. answer the questions and it will download/generate a guide for your specific setup.
2. CAN the red anniversary Wii be downgraded to 4.1? Yes (it's not a real downgrade, just copying a file over the other one, like replacing a .exe in windows)
3. If the answer to #2 is YES, what is the order of activity here?
Do I softmod with Modmii (or whatever's preferred) and THEN worry about downgrading? Or do I downgrade first? none. It's all done in the same step.
Modmii download all the files to be replaced (system menu and IOS), and install them all at once. there's no second steps.
Actually, you even though the Zelda game tells you it needs 4.3 to run, it really doesn't. At best, it just needs to have the right IOS updated. You can just use ModMii for Windows to update all those. Give the SysCheck log suggested by pwsincd to ModMii and it will analyze it and download exactly what you need to install to update that AND generate a custom guide telling you how to do so.Hi all,
I left the wii scene for almost 2 years but want to get back to playing the new Zelda game now that school is over. How do I update my wii to do that? My system is already soft modded and I have usbloader gx installed.
Is there anyway to update my system menu to 4.3?
Thanks. Yeah I only had one on this most recent backup and the last time I had around 3 or 4. I've read in the past that you should always do a NAND backup before doing any major updates, etc. but it got me thinking if the NAND itself actually ever changes. I assumed that it didn't so I figured there's really no point in having to continuously back it up. Either way, better safe than sorry I figure.I heard 80 bad block is the acceptable limit to ship the console to customers.
past that, nintendo doesn't sell it.
(I don't know if that number is exact)
Don't worry if you have few bad blocks.
making a new dump shouldn't be needed, unless your NAND has more and more bad blocks (which could make problem when restoring a backup which will not know the new bad block to skip, and would certainly be a sign of the Wii dying). You can make a new one every nowand then after you changed, and want to keep, the data stored on it.
At worst, you will loose your save data/mii. other things can be reinstalled.
Which IOS are you using to install the wad?I've been trying to install dios mios lite, and I've been having the most difficult time with it. When I attempt to install the WAD, I get an -2011 ticket error. Could anyone help me, please?
