Wii Modding/Homebrew Topic!
Isn’t homebrew illegal?
As @zedthehedgehog said, homebrewing itself is not illegal. Nintendo is very strict with homebrew. On the Wii, your warranty is void (If you brick it, they won't repair it), and on newer consoles, you can actually get banned from using online features, unfortunately. They also have tried quite a few times to remove homebrew (Such as the Bannerbomb patch and Twilight Hack patch).
Though homebrew is not illegal, piracy IS ALWAYS ILLEGAL.
Piracy includes watching downloaded copyrighted movies on a Wii and downloading copyrighted video games and emulating them (i.e played SMB on Fceugx). Making a copy of your disc game (i.e by using CleanRip or USB Loader GX) is not illegal.
I would not worry about your warranty being void. I don't think the warranties are even active anymore. Besides, as long as you install BootMii as Boot2 or Prilloader and a NAND backup. you're pretty well safe from bricks. Just don't download ROMs from the internet. Make archive copies of games you own. You can also download unlicensed ROMs and Homebrew Games, legally. There are a few good ones.

Have fun homebrewing your Wii!

As zedthehedgehog said, it voids your warranty, but you won't get thrown in jail for it. Isn’t homebrew illegal?
But you CAN get thrown in jail for piracy (basically downloading music or games or shows for free).

Meh. I get it. These were on the Wii when I got them. Though it is illegal, it's really the only way to preserve their history. I mean, they can;t be downloaded anymore anyway, and as much as I don't endorse piracy, it really is the only way to do that.

While I do agree with efforts to archive software, I don't agree with pirating games with the sole intention (or even intention in general) of playing them. Pirating is illegal. Though it is illegal, it's really the only way to preserve their history. I mean, they cant be downloaded anymore anyway
