I am having trouble with region change from US to Japanese verison wii. I have installed homebrew channel with apps and wad in the root of my SD card. However, I have also put anyregion changer 1.1b to my SD card, and nothing showed up on homebrew channel and wii.

Any suggestions on how to perform the language change?

P.S. I wasn't sure what verison my wii is, but there are no more updated in my wii, so I believe it's the latest verison.

you need to put the .dol named as boot.dol, in a folder called whatever you want, inside the apps folder on the root of your SD, like:

SD:/apps/ARC/boot.dol

.....and you can't change the language, of your Wii, you need to change it completely to JAP region for the language to appear, go to the Wii Settings, and then Options, and the first screen on the upper right corner you'll see your FW version...!!

    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
