Also, do you need a FAT32 SD card to mod the Wii? does it need to be 2GB?

I personally use a 16gb micro sd card with an adapter to mod my Wii

I'm gonna be using a Transcend 2GB SD card. Not gonna be using an SDHC, miniSD, or microSD card unless I have to. Will that still work?

Yes, unless it's using a version older than 4.0, in which case it must be FAT16.

Some older games can't use SD cards larger than 2GB.

Can you format a 2GB card to FAT32? My Wii is running 4.3.

If it's 4.3, than either FAT16 or FAT32 should be fine.
I don't even know if Windows will let you format an SD card that small to FAT32, since the spec requires cards at that size to be FAT16.

What are some (legal) homebrewing applications I should run on my wii? I have the Homebrew channel.

Yeah, but at least we've learned something today… that every moment of our life should be lived to the fullest because it can be very long or very short, my friend. - Gumball

RiiConnect24 and WiiLink. They bring back online services, and WiiLink brings back Japanese services.

The 2 listed above, and Wiimmfi. It revives the Nintendo WFC service, but everyone uses it for Mario Kart Wii.

If you have Mario Kart Wii, CTGP is a mod that adds more custom tracks to the game, it's also compatible with Wiimmfi,

Priiloader. You should probably already have it installed. It offers brick protection and numerous other features.

I believe so.

Nope! I use a 4GB SDHC card. Keep in mind that generally you only want to use SD or SDHC cards. Regular SD cards are pretty small (though they certainly work), and SDXC and above aren't always supported because they are too new. I have heard of some success with them, but it's generally not worth it. If you need more than 32 gigs of storage then you can probably store the files on a USB drive.

Bump. Also does a virtual SD card conflict with a real one? And do you put homebrew apps on the root of your SD card or in the apps folder?

You put them in the apps folder. Each app should have its own folder in the apps folder. See here

Alternatively, the Open Shop Channel can download apps and automatically format them correctly.

Thanks, but that other question you didn't answer. Does a virtual SD card conflict with a real one?

Try taking your Wii in for repair or buy a new one. Nintendo doesn't repair Wiis anymore so you'll have to find a 3rd-party repair shop. Take note of your Wii's system menu version in Wii Settings as it could be that. (if you don't see a version number, your Wii is on SYSTEM MENU VERSION 1.0!)

Also, the EULA exploit is called STR2HAX.

Or it could be that it's not compatible with that wifi. No need to jump to a full on repair

I would tell you but I'm not very familiar with Dolphin. My best advice would be to look online… or ask ChatGPT ;D
