I just noticed this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/custom-...ection-for-system-menu-backup-loaders.325003/ and I am using a regular Wii (NOT a Wii U)

but alas, there's no tutorial on how to use these forwarders.

First off, the thread says, near the top: ''The Channels will make it easier to launch Gamecube games directly from the System Menu (Doesn't require any USB or Disc loaders).'' so where should I put the ISOs on either an SD Card or USB Stick?

Secondly, this caught my attention, also near the top of the thread: ''DML/DM is the only prerequisite for the channels to work on the Wii.'' What does that means? Should I install DIOS MIOS to make the forwarders work?

Last, is there anything I might have forgotten? The WADs are installed on my Wii, but they do nothing... yet.

(Do note that I rip the GC games myself, I'm not getting them from some ROM site 'cause they're filled with viruses and/or malware, and I only want to play games I paid for. And sorry if this sounds like a n00b question... I just wasted 6 hours trying to figure out how the forwarders works...)

Sorry for necrobump :P

Not sure if this helps but @libertyernie made a good tutorial for make Nintendont autoboot (auto load & start) a GameCube game, here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...ader-for-games-skip-the-emulator-menu.520525/

If you also want to make forwarders or game autoloaders for old games (NES, SNES, N64, GBA, Arcade, etc...), this another tutorial by me will also work: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...ls-of-your-favorite-retro-games-d-wii.602640/

Hope this helps ;)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
