Hi everyone, I own a white Wii hacked for years with a defective disc drive. I use it with USB loader gx etc and bootmii on boot2.
So I planned to buy an other one in order to use some Wii and GameCube games from disc, make proper dump etc. And I say why not the red Wii ?

After many reading, my question is. Is it possible, in 2024 to install bootmii as boot2 on a red Wii ? I heard something about sdboot...

Thanks for future answer

Bootmii boot2, no

SD boot, yeah probably, but sd boot in its current form will refuse to boot without an SD card with appropriate files on it, so if u ask me it's actually more of a brick risk, because if the sd card slot dies then u lose all functionality until the hardware is repaired

In theory there's work being done inspired by sd boot, that if accomplished could install something like bootmii boot2 on all wii's, but even if it can be done, unless it can be reverse engineered somehow or recreated using content from NUS, it can't work without either blatantly violating copyright laws and redistributing sd boot (or a modified version of it), or by requiring you source it yourself in order to actually use whatever tool is potentially released

I wouldn't hold my breath

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.

    I love it for most things most stores you just shows the receipt online and they scan it

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen
