Wii Modding/Homebrew Topic!
RC24 has had full WC24 support for years and WiiLink only supports four WC24 based channels. Please use RC24 for WC24 support and use WiiLink only for region-specific channels. No, this is not me dissing WiiLink.
RC24 supports:
1. Nintendo Channel
2. Check Mii Out/Mii Contest Channel
3. Everybody Votes Channel
4. Forecast Channel
5. News Channel
And more…
WL24 supports:
1. Forecast Channel
2. News Channel (planned)
3. Everybody Votes Channel (under maintenance)
4. Nintendo Channel
5. Check Mii Out Channel (planned)
6. Wiiの間 (Wiinoma)/Wii Room
7. 出前チャンネル (Demaechanneru)/Food Delivery Channel
8. デジカメプリントチャンネル (Digikammepurintochanneru)/Photo Prints Channel
9. テレビの友チャンネル Gガイド for Wii (Terebinotomochanneru: G Gaido for Wii)/TV Guide Channel (private beta)
10. どこでもWiiの間 (Dokodemo Wiinoma)/Wii Room Anywhere (Formerly Wii Room GO)
11. WiiLink SPD
12. Wiimail/Wii Message Board
13. Metroid Prime 3 Preview Channel
14. Kirby TV Channel

this is an extremely misleading post. what, “many = 0”? you list rc24 as having support for 5 channels + many more, when there's only 5 channels + Wii mail it has support for. i'd rather miss out on 2 channels in exchange for not having to use a service that has: -snip-
1) flooded the server of a competing service with a vulnerability
2) then stolen their code because, apart from that vulnerability, it was better in every way
3) refusing to move wii.guide to a non-biased GitHub org without them in control
4) refused to put disconnect on the guide, essentially killing them
5) made it difficult for wiilink to be properly added to the guide
6) stolen wiilink's Nintendo channel to fix their broken one, while that Nintendo channel was closed source at the time
7) lied about having express permission for taking more code
8) “and many more” (because according to you, that just means “i haven't bothered to research any more than this”)
just don't use rc24, they aren't even supported by doujinsoft before

Now that I think of it, My Wii is still connected to Nintendo servers. (My dad apparantly is paranoid about the RiiConnect24 DNS.) So Nintendo may or may not know about all the WADs I have… *boom* Nintendo Ninjas are here! Hands up PIRATE! WAIT THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO GET THE GAMES ON WII PLEASE– *double pumped*Plus the Nintendo ninjas would be knocking on your door sooner or lateryou can, but you have to install a modchip, and that is beyond the expertise of the majority of scratch so a topic is pretty pointlessLike, a Scratch topic for Switch modding? That's still pretty niche because not all Switch models are supported yet. I wonder if there’s a switch one yet

The Wii (aside from the Shop Channel and Nintendo Channel) doesn't even have any telemetry .

I saw this Japanese Wii on eBay, and something's off.

(if you don't get it, 2 weather and news channels)
This was the only page shown and there seems to be no homebrew installed. How did they do this??

Guys plz help. I tried to install Priiloader, but this happened: The loader app appeared but not the installer, even when I put the “priiloader” folder in the apps folder. Looking inside the “priiloader” folder, there seems to be another apps folder inside. I think this is the problem.

Does RC24 have Kentucky as an option for the forecast channel? It's my home state. If not then I can just use WiiLink for the forecast channel. Not like I'm losing much.

What homebrew apps need cIOS? I'm planning on skipping cIOS because it's just too complicated.
(And no I won't use a USB loader, I'll just use the disc channel)
