So, long story short (and told in another thread), but back in 2015 my best friend from back home gave me a modded Wii for Christmas. I've recently gotten it back out to try to understand a little more about how it works, as well as play a bunch of Wii stuff I haven't before.
Through some trial and error (as well as some helpfully-answered posts), I eventually figured out more about its mod configuration, and learned that it uses WAD Manager to install WADs.
Everything else (emulators, Configurable USB Loader, etc) works perfect, but I haven't worked up the courage to try and install any WADS on it yet, and I don't know if I'm just being overly anxious about nothing. I know there's some games that you just straight-up can't install to the System Menu without bricking your console, but am I at any real risk for running games that were always meant to be WADs like Mega Man 9, Strong Bad, etc? I've made a backup of my NAND using BootMii for safety's sake, but is there anything else I should know before I run off trying to use any WADs or am I just being a worrywart?
