I've been out of the Wii hacking/homebrew loop for awhile now, so I'm coming here first to see how much I have missed. I just picked up Epic Yarn and want to play it tonight on my SoftModded Wii, but remembered there might be some AP protection or forced updates on the disk. Does anyone know what IOS I need to update to get it working on my Wii?

Running 3.2U. Last game I got played on it was Ghostbusters, which required a few IOS updates to be installed (been so long I don't remember which).

As dumb as this is going to sound, is there a homebrew app that auto downloads and installs those IOSes?

Edit: I actually made a mistake. Last game I played was Monster Hunter Tri. Not sure if that means I dont need to update any IOSes or not; Thought Id mention it.

GeckoOS.

If you put in your disc and start it through GeckoOS it will install the needed IOSes

I think I remember doing that with Ghostbusters. I'll give it a try as I think i have GeckoOS installed. Will need to update most of my homebrew, but that shouldn't be too hard. Thanks all. If GeckoOS doesn't work I'll try pimp my wii(snico1995).

    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
