Wii Modding/Homebrew Topic!
Do you have an SD card? All that LetterBomb requires is an SD card and an internet connection for accessing a website — no programs need to be installed AFAIK. I'm interested in modding my Wii U (and the built in Wii in the Wii U)
but it's like I know how but I don't have the resources (I have a Mac, but my whole family uses that.)

Wii U isn't hackable via Letterbomb iirc. If it is then that's not the safest method.Do you have an SD card?

All you need is an SD card, your Wii U, and wiiu.hacks.guide (type that into your favorite browser's address bar)
that and vWii modding is significantly different from Wii modding. DO NOT try Wii methods on your vWii, that will brick the system.
what I mean is, different IOS, different exploits, a lot of stuff.
You still have Priiloader tho.

This isn't the forum for Wii U, but we can help you with Wii. If you've got like, another computer in the house, use that. I'm interested in modding my Wii U (and the built in Wii in the Wii U)
but it's like I know how but I don't have the resources (I have a Mac, but my whole family uses that.)

I used to put the Switch dock on top of my Wii, but now it's closer out of the viewThis actually happened to me by the way. We still have the Wii to this very day, it's displayed front and centre (even more displayed than the Switch) my parents used to own a wii, if we ever find it i might homebrew it and install some free games on it

You betcha you won't. Trust me - all you need is a 32GB+ SD card. (can be micro, with adapter) and I don't think they're even going to get you in trouble.it's not even like I have my own, the only reason I'm typing this is my school computer, and I know I'm gonna get expelled if I do that on thisYeah you do really need a computer I'm interested in modding my Wii U (and the built in Wii in the Wii U)

yupAnd how is that related to modding the Wii? So my school has finally blocked Nitro Type. It looks like that means they took me and the boys LAST SOURCE OF SANITY BESIDES GOOGLE SNAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!
Also, you should really be doing your work in class, not playing games.

I think a safer/better method is Wilbrand, similar to letterbomb but more effective from what I can tellDo you have an SD card? All that LetterBomb requires is an SD card and an internet connection for accessing a website — no programs need to be installed AFAIK. I'm interested in modding my Wii U (and the built in Wii in the Wii U)
but it's like I know how but I don't have the resources (I have a Mac, but my whole family uses that.)
(or maybe it just IS letterbomb, either way I retract previous statements as vWii mods much differently)

(removed by moderator - please do not encourage illegal activities on Scratch) you'll need to be packing serious heat in terms of external storage. I have literally 2 games on my 32GB SD in my classic Wii and it's already 20% used up.You betcha you won't. Trust me - all you need is a 32GB+ SD card.

Hey! After recently modding my new 2ds xl I'm been thinking “Well I have an old Wii I don't use anymore!” so I've been thinking of modding it. I've been doing some research in the past couple days on wii.hacks.guide and the WiiBrew Wiki, and I think I have the knowledge to follow the tutorial and know what I'm doing, and fix bricks that don't require hardware modification.
My question is: Is modding a Wii worth it in 2025? Also, what size of SD should I get? I have a 64gb for my new 2ds xl but I figure I won't need that much space because the Wii is a bit older.

It's a lot of fun so if you're capable of doing it then go for it! Hey!

2GB is probably plenty if you don't intend to store any games on it. If you do then of course you would want a higher capacity one or, more likely, a USB hard drive or flash drive.
