It took almost an hour, but mainly because I didn’t know what I was doing lol. And yeaa I made it so where it basically just insults you for having a pirated disc or just a faulty disc 😂

Show and Tell Introducing: Another Pwn & The Haxx Bearers, 2 new Wii exploits!

5 Upvotes

Hey guys, first things first: I'm doing this purely out of passion. I'm aware that there are easier Wii hacks (for now; yes this is a spoiler)!

Where do I start?

Over a year ago I started writing my own GameCube & Wii emulator called Gecko. The Wii has always been my favorite console, there's just something magical about it. Since I'm also very interested in all things low level (I've been doing this for a very long time) I eventually set out on a multi year learning journey understanding emulation development with multiple goals in mind: 1. Write my own Wii emulator 2. Write an arbitrary savegame based exploit 3. Write a savegame exploit for my favorite game of all time 4. Write a system menu/IOS/... exploit

I am here to present to you goals 2 and 3: * Another Pwn: An exploit for Another Code R * The Haxx Bearers: An exploit for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers

Fun fact: The Final Fantasy game gave me my online username "Layle"!

Anyways, as you can see I chose the names based on the naming scheme established by the OG savegame exploits like Indiana Pwns and BatHaxx!

Both exploits are open source and also feature full, interactive writeups. Here are the important links: * GitHub * Writeup for Another Pwn * Writeup for The Haxx Bearers

Here are also demo videos on YouTube to see it in action (featuring both of my cats haha): * Another Pwn * The Haxx Bearers

PS: If you're into emulation development, or are particularly interested in Wii internals, I urge you to check out my other blogposts!

I have Kirby Return to Dreamland, Mario Galaxy 1+2, and DKC Returns on Wii. If I buy the Switch versions, is there any reason to keep the Wii ones?

Text Post What are your thoughts on the Wii Fit selection of music in Smash Bros?

1 Upvotes

Melee is turning 25 this year, so I thought I would do this with every represented franchise I'm involved in.

For context, here's the full list:

Main Menu--Wii Fit (Ultimate arrangement of the series menu theme, Advanced Step, and Rhythm Boxing, by Kumi Tanioka)

Super Hoop (also known as Hoop Dance; Sm4sh arrangement, by Kenji Ito)

Rhythm Boxing (original; Expert tempo)

Advanced Step (also known as Step Plus; Touch Generations Sound Track arrangement)

Yoga (original)

Skateboard Arena (Free Mode) (Sm4sh arrangement of the song of the same name, Aerobics/Balance Start 1, and Aerobics/Balance Results, by Hiroshi Okubo)

Mischievous Mole-way (also known as Segway Circuit [Intermediate Stage]; original)

Wii Fit Plus Medley (Sm4sh arrangement of Obstacle Course, Rhythm Parade, Perfect 10, Snowball Fight, and Aerobics/Balance Start 1, by Maki Kirioka)

Training Menu--Wii Fit U (Ultimate arrangement, by Hiroki Morishita)

Core Luge (original; normal performance on Advanced difficulty)

I'm admittedly not that familiar with the music of Wii Fit despite owning all three games, as I don't really touch them all too much. From what I gather, though, this was basically the best they could do, and on that front, it's pretty decent. I don't like the Wii Fit Plus Medley, and Mischievous Mole-way feels a tad bit out of place, but other than that, I have no complaints.

Let me know what you think.

Show and Tell I made a fork of this project that turns your Google TV home screen into a wii

9 Upvotes
Dark mode and CRT effect are both on here

The project is intended to work on Android TV devices, including Google TV, which is what I tested it on. The original project is linked in the README.

My changes include a CRT effect and dark mode, both of which you can toggle on or off. I also made the pointer look closer to the original Wii cursor and lowered the framerate to boost performance. Apps run normally and the main lag I’ve noticed is a framerate drop when switching pages.

This doesn’t replace your TV’s operating system it just runs on top of it. Depending on your TV, you can set the Home button to open the Wii-style menu and have it open automatically after a restart.

I also plan to add unofficial OpenMote support.

Edit: so i forgot to include the link https://github.com/etco920/wii-tv-crt/releases/tag/v1.0.0-crt

Text Post Which kind of remote should I buy

1 Upvotes

I have dolphin emulator, and to be honest, mostly to play Rhythm Heaven Fever. I really, really love this game, and I want to buy a Wii remote to play it (without the lag of the Nintendo Switch joycons).

However, I also wanted to play Wii sports and maybe Windwaker, but I've been agonising if I should buy a normal Wii remote, a motionplus one, or if I should consider buying the nunchuk as well...

I found a normal Wii remote, and a nunchuk, sold locally near me (by some miracle), and I feel a bit impatient to order online and wait even more for the remote at this point. But is motionplus integrated into the remote actually worth it? And should I buy the nunchuk?

Show and Tell Anyone successfully 3D printed an NHL Slapshot stick?

1 Upvotes

I’m looking for an STL or design to 3D print a Wii hockey stick similar to the NHL Slapshot peripheral (holding both the Wiimote and Nunchuk).

I haven't found any pre-made files online. If you've modeled one or cobbled a working version together, I’d love to see how you did it—especially how you kept the joints strong and secured the controllers.

Me and my gf always play scary games around and on Halloween. Well this year I had a great idea to pick up a Wii and some spooky light gun shooters, as well as some classic scary games. I’m also a huge treasure fan so sin and punishment star successor has always been on my list. It’s been a blast so far

Text Post Home brew channel missing.

1 Upvotes

Hello y'all! I modded my Wii back around 2013. I reconnected since I finished my retro room and it was the last console I hooked up.

I turned it on and the home brew channel is missing. Did Nintendo figure out a way to remove these somehow 😆. It still has the sd card with nes roms 🤷‍♂️.

Thought i would ask before I reinstall a new mod.

Thanks y'all!
