Got a nintendo wii today, Already have a 750GB external hdd, looking for a step by step guide to run wii games from that hdd, if there is one.

Also, do i need to have an SD card to get the homebrew on the console or can i use a usb drive as i have plenty of them in the house, but no SD cards.

Thanks in advance :)

I haven't tried it yet myself, but a bluetooth-based hack was just released. This was necessitated by the lack of an SD card slot on the Wii Mini, but it also works on original Wii models.

Requirements:
- Linux computer
- Bluetooth adapter

I haven't kept up to say for sure, but it might also be possible to run this from a virtual machine.

Yes, this is the one I was talking about. Also, I recommend you not follow any video guides. They're pretty unreliable.

  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    @BigOnYa Godreborn sadly went crazy. I didn't spoke a lot with him, but on Discord he messaged me for some weeks before he left. Not sure if I may share his personal situation, but honestly it's nothing he didn't made clear over here. I'll try to be brief: He was having a bad time due to bipolarity. And he was messaging me that he wasn't feeling good emotionally speaking.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Then something happened between Chary and him, again, nothing he didn't made publicly already, but if curious you should check his last threads.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Then, after that last thread, sone users began to mock him. I tried to mock him because he was giving me over 80 notifications per day about his "jokes", but I just stopped replying. I think he took personal the whole situation of me not replying to his same jokes repeated over and over and his personal thingy with Chary was the drop that spilled the glass or whatever. So he got banned fir his behavior towards Chary or something.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Really can't tell much as the last thing he wrote me via Discord was: "you hurt me really bad with your last joke" (He joked I sucked hus BaNaNa all day and I told him that Chary wouldn't even touch him with her bat whilst his mom sucked my BaNaNa every night) and I think he took it really personal. Mind you, that was my first response after 3 months of constant "Juan sucks my BaNaNa" jokes every day.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Oh yeah forgot about the entire Chary thing lol
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    And then he went even crazier and began blaming everyone for his situation (be aware that he's bipolar and I personally live with a bipolar person and I know how bipolars behave and excuses their behavior against others) so I immediately knew something was gonna get awfully wrong, even Flame and I talked a bit about that, and I warned Flame something like this would happen soon.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    But yeah, basically that... Godreborn couldn't take a joke when he was the one that started it all. Again... not justifying my one joke... but it kinda got me tired. Hehe. So... there...
  • HiradeGirl @ HiradeGirl:
    that was such a rabbit hole
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    The only time I answered to his constant jokes left him with a bigger rabbit hole. He basically asked for the tip and I gave him the whole BaNaNa. I'm kind, gave him more than he could take.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    No but seriously... heh... he kinda asked for it... for 3 months or so. I'm kind.
