Hello all. I have a question that's been bothering me for a while.


Say you have a VC title installed on a hacked Wii (Which I do), and put onto the sd card. When you take the SD card out, put it in another Wii, and try to run it, It'll say something like "can not run on this Wii".

Now...With all the wad managers and everything, is it possible to change the uh...idk what it's called..."Which wii this VC game is installed on" code, so that you can reinstall it on the hacked Wii to the SD card, move it to another Wii, then actually be able to play it on there?

 

Blue Dump is what I use to extract wads: http://gbatemp.net/threads/bluedump-alpha-2.191486/
I cant remember if you need to know the title ID, or if it tells you the title, but if you need it, check the database: http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Title_database

Side note/question: Why do people bother with VC? There are emulators that accomplish the same thing and more.

 

one way or another, its already pretty illegal... so why not just get the respective wad from wherever and install that on the second wii?

 

Also the wii will only load tiles from the sd card when the ticket for that title is already installed on the wii. So if the title was not installed on the 2nd wii it would not load it from the sd card. It install it via wad, if you wan't an sd option to take to a friends wii and not install on it, use nand emulation.
