What is Wii Modding and Homebrewing?
Homebrew refers to the ability to run software on the Wii that is not licensed or sanctioned by Nintendo. This includes homemade games, game engines that can run old PC games, and homebrew applications that do things like play DVDs through your Wii or use the balance board as a scale.

You can do a lot of great stuff using homebrew
(Keep in mind doing this voids your Wii's warranty)

BE CAREFUL WHEN USING HOMEBREW APPLICATIONS
If you make a homebrew application or use a homebrew application install BootMii boot2 or Priiloader on your wii install a homebrew program!!

For instructions of installing homebrew, go here:
https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_setup

What you can do here:
Talk about homebrew programs others created
Talk about homebrew programs you created
Talk about Wii modding in general,
or other Wii modding/homebrew-related stuff!

Anyways, have fun!

Oh, and if you're wondering about where to post download links, I recommend github.com

If you want to install a homebrew application, make sure you have an SD Card

that's cool and all but I just want to know if there is a way to play scratch games on a Wii (homebrewed)

These were so cool

I'm thinking about adding homebrew to my Wii.

Random Question: Does Scratch work with the Internet Channel?

The internet channel has not been updated since 2009, so, uh, yeah, probably not. I can test it if you wish!

I have already homebrewed my wii, if you need any help with anything, feel free to ask!

I play the Wii, but only sometimes now. Mine is not modded.

the only wii i have is my dad's and if he finds out i made it into whatever i'd be screwed

I don't know, there is a Scratch WAD for the Wii, but I believe it just crashes.

Where's that?

Isn’t homebrew illegal?

It will void your warranty (which I think all have expired at this point), but it won't land you in jail.

You own the Wii, you have all rights to modify it in whichever way shape or form

The only thing that is illegal is if you do illegal stuff with homebrew, but not the homebrew channel itself.

Only if you do illegal things, like install copyrighted software. Otherwise, no, like zedthehedgehog said.
