Also, @zedthehedgehog I'm not sure what an NUS downloader is, could you explain?

Oh guys I found some really obscure Wii channels only released in Japan: Wii Fit Body Check Channel and Grill off with retro hand (This one was also released in NA but in both regions was only a Club Nintendo Exclusive.)
I linked the WAD files here for anyone who wants to use them (MAKE SURE TO REGION FREE YOUR WII WITH PRILLOADER FIRST OR YOUR WII MAY BE SUBJECT TO VERY UNWANTED CIRCUMSTANCES)

Wii Fit Body Check Channel:

Wii de ultra hand:
https://repo.mariocube.com/WADs/_WiiWare,%20VC,%20DLC,%20Channels%20&%20IOS/W/Wii%20de%20Ultra%20Hand%20(Japan)%20(Club%20Nintendo)%20(WiiWare).wad

If anyone with Wii Fit can try out the body check channel, and link some photos here, I would really appreciate it! It seems that when you launch the app, it needs you to insert the disc (I think anyway, I can't read Japanese). I don't have wii fit, so I can't use it.

Thanks, and enjoy!

I have Wii Fit Plus, but according to this Dolphin Wiki page, it appears that it was used along with a DS to give data to health professionals. However, this is probably obsolete, and this article makes me wonder if it is kind of pointless.

I watched the trailer for Grill-Off with Ultra Hand, and it looks kind of boring. It's all about grabbing meat with the Ultra Hand.

Also, please refrain from directly linking to pirated content.

Wii Fit Body Check Channel may have got your information from various locations and uploaded it to a website according to this layout:
https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/vEenCP76Zhm_hM10W3doKA–~B/Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTI5MTt3PTY3NTthcHBpZD15dGFjaHlvbg-
It also seemed to have collected information from the DS through the Personal Trainer: Walking game that I found used a pedometer accessory, also included in the layout.

The data uploaded to the web also contained BMI info from Wii fit. Health Professionals would review the information and send back suggestions and comments to the Wii (Judging by the layout it was in the form of a Wii Message Board letter).

It was developed by NEC, Hitachi, and Panasonic Medical Solutions (According to this website)

I'm really not sure about the rest of this. I'm still unsure about the “Insert the SD Card” screen shown in LunaValoaa's YT video. If any of you can or know someone who can translate Japanese, that would really help! I'll upload pictures of the Wii Fit Body Check Channel here so we can figure it out, but otherwise, I'm not sure what else to do. WiiLink24 has halted the revival progress of this channel, so it's kinda up to us to figure it out.

And yes, Wii de ultra hand looks quite boring, though I cannot get it to run on my Wii, so I can't really play it.

I was able to translate the layout using an image translator service. It's not perfect, but it's there:

I also was able to find some info on the Japanese Wii Fit website about the channel, and translated that as well:
This was the text.

Support health care with the Wii Fit channel!
You can check it.
Graphs and calendars of treg achievements
Register data for up to 8 people and graph changes for several years of other members with each other
You can check.
There is a Wii Fit channel in the Wii menu, so you don't need a Wii disc
You can check the achievement level of the recorded members and enjoy “body measurement”.

I assume this was more like:

Support health care with the Wii Fit channel! (This was where the companies may have used the data collected by you, according to this website)
You can check it.
Graphs and calendars of treg achievements (??)
Register data for up to 8 people and graph changes for several years of other members with each other
You can check.
There is a Wii Fit channel in the Wii menu, so you don't need a Wii disc. (Aha there's mention of the channel)

Ah. I found some more info about that text, and it's just the wii fit plus game. Darn.

Which channel? This statement is referring to the Wii Fit Channel, not the Wii Fit Body Check Channel. The two are completely unrelated.

Oops. It looked like the check channel from the picture, but I did more research and that's just Wii Fit. I don't actually have Wii fit. I used to but I don't have it anymore. Therefore, I kinda forgot what it looked like.

I'm still trying to get into the channel, but the problem is when you boot it up, It shows something in Japanese that I used Yandex to translate. Apparently I need save data from the game. I tried using a NSTC version of the game on USB Loader GX, and it created save data, but that did not work. I'm thinking I might need the Japanese version of the game. It would make sense, I guess.

Yeah, this translates to…
There is no personal data for Wii fit.
Re-Boot from the Wii disc
Please create your personal data.
Return to the Wii menu.

I'm a little stuck. I may have to buy back the Wii balance board and find the Japanese version of Wii fit. I'm annoyed that I can't get further into this channel. Right now, I know as much as anybody about this.

Just *try to* find a Wii balance board for cheap that is *brand* new (I don't trust used things) (and a brand new balance board for cheap would be impossible), and use Priiloader to region free your Wii, and find a brand new Japanese Wii Fit game that is only for like 10 bucks. Put the disc in (make sure the region free Priiloader hack is on), create personal data, and you should be able to try out the body check channel!
I hope this works for you!

When will WiiLink ever release the Demae Channel to the public?

I'm wondering when as well! It's taking a long time, and there hasn't been any news from wiilink since February. I'm always checking the website. For a while they had a private beta open, but you had to pay a fee to get early access to it.

Thanks. I tried using a japanese wii fit rom (japan region games are harder to find) and created save data that way. I got a little further into the channel. It created save data for the channel, checked for mail, then boom. It showed the same annoying screen. You need personal data! So this means I will need a balance board. I'll start looking for one. Then I'll create “personal” data that way. But for now, this is as far as I can get into the channel. You should check out LunaValoaa's video on the channel. Just Google it. It'll show you some of what I saw.

The mii stamp commercial is the best thing ever. You gotta check it out. Just Google “Mii stamp commercial”

Yeah, you'll need a Balance Board. But why do you want to check out the Body Check Channel? It's obsolete now, and Wii Fit isn't 100% accurate.
