Homebrews?

 

 

 

Legal copies?

 

 

I'm trying really hard to understand this post of yours...

 

Are you implying that Homebrew = Piracy?

 

If so then your fail is much stronger.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

LOL, where I live everyone has homebrew. Actually, we consider idiots anyone who doesn't have one(or rich people. Maybe both).



Above: still the best game of the year.

My cousin's roommate has homebrew for Wii, he's got a bunch of old Genesis, SNES, NES, and N64 games. It's pretty cool, but the damn thing doesn't even work half the time. I would try to hack my Wii but I'm afraid I'd brick it, plus I don't think you can ever update your system or go online. Although I do have 2 Wiis, (one for me in my room, and the community Wii in the basement for Wii Fit and such), so I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try it on one.

I admittedly have a homebrewed PSP with some PSP games, SNES games, and a couple Playstation games. Most of the games I already own, I just couldn't help but try out a handheld Secret of Mana. Though I think I'm going to un-hack it (so to speak) and sell it on amazon, as I don't really use it much anymore, and I could really use the money.

It is nearly impossible to permanently brick your Wii if you install BootMii as boot2 and backup your nand.

wait... you can't play online or update?

but someone here said you can, also I read that

 

But the only reason I said I'll keep it is because someone said it is safe to play  online, is it a lie?

I have home brew channel on my Wii cuz nintendo lock my games by region and i love japanese games also i would never played Another Code R without it...


Wait... You can play PAL (and Japan) games on an NA Wii with Homebrew?  Maybe I will pick up a black Wii, slap Homebrew on it and order Another Code R, Disaster:DoC and some other PAL games.


Hell yeah , the best ?

-Simple and there is no danger to your Wii.

PS:I also played disaster that by the way rocks a lot !

Yes, you can go online, use the Wii shop and update your Wii, but unless the Homebrew Channel is updated to work with the new Wii update then the Wii update will probably delete your Homebrew Channel. And make your Wii go into self-destruct mode if you're unlucky

aaa, ok, it is updated for wii menu 4.2 so I think I'm safe, maybe I'll eventually erase it just in case, when I'm bored
