Thanks @SaulFabre for re-posting this tutorial! My previous searches on the vWii SNEEK kept pointing to the original dead link.

So I've installed devkitPro, but how exactly do I install devkitARM r32? I've downloaded the linked .rar file but there's no installer that I can see. Or does "installing" in this case refer to the next step reading "restart your computer. Open C:\devkitPro\"??

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!:grog: I think I see what I need for the "devkitARM r32" step now.

For the initial devkitPro installation I used "Updater v3.0.3" from GitHub, should I backtrack and use a resource from the page you linked instead? I noticed there was no mention of PSP in the installer I used, so I'm concerned I might not be running what the tutorial expects here... :unsure: I am on Win10 64bit btw.

EDIT: I actually got a real Wii last week :D... so I'll be shifting all usage of Wii software to that now... but thanks for the helpful vWii thread everybody!

I just want to highjack this thread. I manage to compile this from the guide on 1st page loaded to my WiiU's vWii. I only copied the USB part and it loaded from ULGX fine with the channels. Tested Castlevania and it worked well now.

Question is, does this version of Neek have the hidden menu? It doesn't seem to load when I press 1 or 2. Was needing it to launch some Wii Disc games. I already have the DiscEx format under usb/games/[title]/game files

I manage to launch the hidden menu. It's buggy. Sometimes it appears sometimes need few long press 1 or 2.

But no game detected. I have put a game in discRex format as advised under "usb:/games/[TitleID]/game files"

I also change the region to USA. The pic is not updated. Maybe need to change GameRegion:UNK? But didn't see that as an option under hidden menu.
