Hello fellow Tempers. I hope you all had a merry Christmas / happy holiday... Now, I need some help with a small Wii hacking-related problem. If I had more time, I'd look up how to fix it myself, but these next few days are going to be busy, and I've only got until the 31st to solve the issue:
I've got a launch US Wii, running 3.2U, which I've only installed the Homebrew channel and BootMii on. I installed BootMii to boot2 and made a NAND backup a while back, and I haven't done any more Wii hacking since then. Now, my problem is that I need to access the new Wii Shop to redeem 1800 Wii points I won in the Pepsi Rock Band promotion... But I don't know how to access the Wii Shop channel without accepting the firmware update it would prompt me to download, and that's not the best option last time I checked. The codes I need to enter expire on December 31st, so I need to access the Wii Shop channel to redeem them before then.
So, how do I do this? I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could post a step-by-step solution. If I had more time, I'd be happy to read through the guides and stickies (which I did a while back, but I've forgotten...), but my family has a lot planned for these next few days (big birthday party for a sibling), so I really don't have the time to figure this out on my own without risking running out of time.
Thanks for your time and (hopefully) help!
