OMG Where do I start learning to hack the Wii? The USB Loader page is a good place to start.
Jan 26, 2010
The PS3 has been hacked! Nothing has been released yet though. Geohot (Who also hacked the iphone) has finally hacked a system which has taken over 3 years yet no one has been able to do so.
check out the new wiki here
Don't upgrade to Wii Firmware 4.2!
Instead of updating your Wii firmware, you can just use dop-IOS MOD to update specific channels such as the Nintendo Channel or Wii Shop Channel without updating the Wii Sytem Menu. This will allow you to shop with the latest Wii Shop Channel without updating the Wii System Menu.
However, the USB Loader guide DOES work if you are on 4.2 and want to hack your Wii.
Don't use IOS60-Patcher for launching games from SD!
Instead use dop-IOS MOD to re-install IOS60 (if you are on Wii Firmware 4.0 or 4.1) or IOS70 (if you are on Wii Firmware 4.2) with the signature hash check (trucha bug). Also, if you are using Preloader and you "dop" IOS60 or IOS70, remember to reinstall Preloader after "doping"; otherwise, you won't be able to load the System Menu. Instead, boot HBC through Preloader to reinstall it.
