Welcome to the We Hack Wii Database!
The Home of Homebrew!
This is where we can help each other with all homebrew issues:
Applications, Games, WADs and Much More!
OMG Where do I start learning to hack the Wii? The USB Loader page is a good place to start.
MESSAGE FROM THE ADMIN (Dec 14, 2009):
We are in need of editors to help keep the wiki nice and tidy! Obviously they can only be people who are trust worthy and have been on the website for a while. Email " Wehacknet@gmail.com " to get permission, dont forget to include your username on the wiki. Here are what editors can do: (copy and pasted)
"Editors are trusted helpers who are highly privileged Writers. They can rename or delete pages, files and folders. Editors should be highly trusted, since they can delete your data irrevocably"
Secondly, I am sorry for being away for so long, I was moving into a new apartment and had very serious girlfriend problems -_-
I will be checking the comments more often and will be deleting and banning anyone who is spamming, or just being plain annoying. This is about Nintendo Wii hacking, not a site to display links to earn points for games ect.
Also, check out the DSi section, Team Twizzer should be bringing out their solution soon (Hopefully) and we can get a head start when its released.
I hope to do a PS3 blog and wiki soon if something comes up with softmod, I picked up a slim a little while ago and love it! ^_^, it has great potential for homebrew apps and hacks. (If ANYTHING is out for softmodding a PS3, let me know! I have googled but couldnt find anything)
Dont forget to check out the blogs (Wehackwii.com / Wehackdsi.com) and the dsi wiki (wehackdsi.pbworks.com)
Thanks and have a great holiday everyone!
DSI brew is coming soon! Check out the WeHackDSI wiki for DSI hacking/homebrew!
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.
