Hacking Virtual Console Hacked !!

[NewsWii]

Let's hope that we will see in few days "another guy" (you know what i mean) named waninbobo that he'll release it... so Waninkoko's name will be clear because waninbobo did all the baaaad things

ahaha you make me smile KamuiX

, what a strange name for a God... and what you said is quite possible...

Pretty cool proof of concept, that's some nice hacking. But it's not really usefull. One game takes 1 channel this way, your menu will be full in no-time. It's better to wait for full wii-mode homebrew emulators (running from the sd slot, or a bootable dvd). There already is an early version of such a SNES emulator

When you download a VC game it also takes up 1 channel for each VC game

Yes. But then you must pay. With this it's free, and people will ofcourse want to play a lot more games this way. Look at SNES games alone for examle. There are hundreds of them.

 

[Hadrian]

Well if its true than good news, but I'd rather see work done on the emulation scene.

Any chance that the games could maybe be hacked so we can use the emulator running the VC game and use it for games yet to be released on VC? Or is that just retarded?

 

[IxthusTiger]

Oh, I see how it works. Wii updates encrypt the new firmware/software for your wii, so if you just replace the firmware installation with a channel installation, voila! So despite that he says he won't release it, it's actually very likely someone can duplicte the technique.

 

[m0dm0use]

shame we don't see the game working, I hope this is released today since well the PSP Sony Store has now been hacked (woot Fl0w) would be nice to do this with the Wii goods.

And don't forget to Trucha sign it!

Personally I thought the Virtual Console worked like this :

The file you download would be made of 3 parts :

-The ROM itself
-A minimalist emulator optimized for Wii consoles (controls, saving and such)
-Encryption/Code that would be unique to the Wii console so it wouldn't be copied to other Wiis.

So I believed that since you could put the VC game on a SD card, it was just a matter of time until someone figures out how the code/encryption works, and then you could 'exchange' the ROM for another one, or change the encryption to fit your Wii.

I guess it's more complicated that this since after 2 years there's still no way to do it (at least not released).

Out of curiosity, would it be possible to somehow get any N64 rom working through the VC emulator?

I'd love the current ones (Kirby 64 for example), but I'd like to replay the Banjo games and Conkers BFD etc, and it looks like we'll be getting this before any N64 emulators >.>

We can already use the N64 emulator which is included in Zelda: Collectors Edition. Some sites provide pre-compiled ROM packages, but these are illegal so I don't link to them.

Give it a Google

Yeah, but that emulator runs in GameCube mode. I believe most N64 games have certain problems running through it. Only games that have a similar engine to Ocarina of Time run without problems, like Majoras Mask, and Super Mario 64. Also, I think I remember reading that it won't load certain games, like Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, etc.

 

[Hisi]

Goldeneye anyone?

 

[cartman100]

better running N64 games on the PC Project64 emulator, the games look much nicer in hi resolution, just had a look on the virtual console, what a rip off the games are , c64 IK+ - £2.50 , bloody hell , its only 38k of code, you could probably buy a c64 + 100 games for £2.50 now , hehe

 

[King Zargo]

I don't want this released. The only reason to use it is to pirate games.

 

[Hadrian]

Its not IK+ its only IK, no 3 way fighting at all, its still a good game but IK+ was so much better.

 

[Elrinth]

would be nice if u burned an app to a dvd disc then u could insert all the games u wanted to ur wii via the SD-cardslot

 

[katsuce]

strange thing though: neither wiinewz nor waninkoko's website are reporting this...

Ya, you think one of those website would say something about this.

 

[Arch Feline]

whatever. It is a good year for the Wii.

Nowhere in this story it says that waninkoko made it. Only that its created thanks to him.

QUOTEVirtual Console Hackeada!



PREMIER!!! PREMIER!



So! Although unable to believe what their eyes reading this, has already been Hackeada Virtual Console, or rather ... A channel for the Virtual Console.

This is just the beginning, we may even have to be corrected details, but has been able to channel a copy of the original game and virtual console has been installed in another Wii through a disc truchado.

There are no further details at this stage as this test phase.

Here is a video installation, which enjoy it.

PS A special thanks to Waninkoko, because without such things as never could have been done.

Thanks Waninkoko are incredible, and continues to champion.

Saludos!!! Greetings!
