HOLY SHIT THIS INCREDIBLY CALL THE REPORTERS

And I care......why?

>>54758233
Because you have a space for the spare SD card your newer PS3 can't read

true

call fucking ripleys

>>54758272

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE GEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>54758272
Or 360.

PART CIRCEL RED FIT SD

>>54758042
There is a same space on the other side of the Wii holder. They're not SD card holders, they're just holes that enable you to fit your Wii into the holder easily.

>>54758379
but the 360 has never been able to read them.

>>54758479
That will change soon in a update.

>>54758379

I don't think they ever were able to read them. Yours isnt funny...

>>54758438
it bothers me that you took the time to edit that picture for no reason at all. like you wasted time editing that picture to post it, probably with some bad ass smirk on your face or in your mind. You thought this was clever. What the fuck is wrong with you?

THE WII IS SHAPED LIKE AN SD CARD HOLY SHIT

>>54758438
It's an SD Card holder, you're in denial.

You will need this tiny whole to fit the console easily when there's no plastic in the back of the stand :/

See this? Its where I plug my HDD with 100+ games on it into.

Feels good not paying for shit.

>>54758581
I think it took me less than a minute, how much time did it took you to click reply in the /v/ main page, think this delicious comment and then post it?

>>54758581

>>54758851
why is this relevant at all

>>54758880
nonono don't pull that shit.you know for a fact that you did not intentionally "trololo" anything. You just did something really fucking dumb.

>>54758851
me too, and also my Xbox 360 Play and Charge because of the stupid memory problem in the rechargeable batteries. But you're getting out of the main point, the SD card holder, not the USB ports. Geez.

>>54758905
2PORT

>>54758905
WHY IS >>54758042 RELEVANT?

FUCK YOU

>>54758867
But it was me who edited that pic, not you.

>>54758867
>>54758581
When a girl and a boy fight like this, it shows that they're hiding their true feelings for each other!

>>54758976

So I just discovered that the part circled in red can fit weed sideways.

>>54758591

WHAT

>>54759016

because you can hold 2 SD cards now
and come one, you can see Apples with USB ports now a day, even the frickin macbook air has 1 port.

But no laptop or "next gen" console has an SD card port and an SD card HOLDER!

>>54759051

Bonus points if you read the posts in Ash and Misty's voices

>>54759173
or 37 SD cards! :D

Anyone in here have a Wode?

>>54759284

A what?

>>54759284
I have a wood ;D

>>54759051
Read that in her voice
FUCK YOU

I'm buying a Wii tomorrow!

So I just discovered the part circled in red gets you high as fuuuckkkk.

>>54759284

>>54759284
people actually buy those things?

>>54759549
It kinda seems worth it, but I guess noone on /v/ has one! Ha

>>54759857
The fuck is it for?

>>54759857
>seems worth it
dude the only thing a wode can do that softmodding can't is run gamecube isos off a usb hard drive

>>54760010
you plug the optical drive cable from the wii and a usb drive into it and it loads ISOs and pretends to be the DVD drive.

>>54760017
I remember reading that you can copy games onto HDD using it as well, that's a nifty thing, seeing as being an australian my net is show as shit

>>54760255
dude you can do that with a softmodded wii too. that's what the "+" button on left does.

>>54759549

>>54759510

>>54759510

What's with that button in the middle of the Classic Controller? The one on the top. It doesn't seem to do anything except move some plastic bits on the back of the controller.

>>54760348
What the shit?! Why have I not heard of this?!

>>54758042
can anyone get ocarina of time master quest gcn iso to run? i am using neogamma but don't find any info on the "interwebs"

Well after reading this thread, /v/ has saved me $150!

So I heard the Picture Channel or whatever can play mp3's from an sd card. Nintendo lies.

>>54760017
You can run burned gamecube games on the Wii, using DVD-Rs.
I got a ten pack for a few bucks, way worth it bro.

>>54760348
So like, any links or literature about this? My wii's from launch and is still running the twilight hack. Yeah I'm one of THOSE people

>>54760771
piracy means never paying for anything

>>54761270
Shit nigga imma pirate a couple of wiis.

Wait, I don't need the smaller DVD-R discs to run burned GC games? Someone told me otherwise, so I also figured the regular-sized ones just wouldn't work.

Do you have a gamecube backup loader yet?
If you do and it doesn't run, it might just not be compatible. Anyways, if I were you I would just get the Zelda N64 wads, as well as a Windwaker iso (I know this one works)

>>54758976
umad?

>>54761476
No brah, follow the youtube vid posted above.
All you need is DVD-Rs, and you're set

>>54760348

is this app actually called "wii usb loader"?

the one I'm currently using, usb gx iirc, looks like complete shit

>>54759510

>>54761476
you only need the mini-dvds if you're burning the discs for a gamecube and you didn't replace the lid when you modded it

How you bros install wads? My wadmanager 1.3 isn't cutting it anymore.

>>54761715
dude that's usb loader gx. if yours looks like ass it might be like an ancient version or something
>>54761782
http://code.google.com/p/yawmm/

>>54761476
They run fine on regular DVDs. Personally, I'm waiting until they find a solution to run them from USB hard drives, because running burned discs degrades the laser faster. Though I'm not really using the laser for anything other than ripping games.

>>54761749
>>54761652

Thanks anon, you guys have helped me yet again. Now I can put these 150 DVD-Rs to use again, since I've already ran out of Wii games to get!

Take this cool picture of Dragonite.

>>54761933
unlikely. gamecube games directly access the DVD drive (Wii games can't do that and have to go through the IOS)

>>54760348
Shame you can't dump gamecube games yet. Oh well, that's why we have a gamecube disk backup loader channel

>>54761933

I lack a USB Drive anyway, so I'll stick with my DVD-Rs.

But still, thanks.

>>54762163

Actually how much does one of these bad boys cost?

>>54762163
>no usb drive

you're missing out. Wii games actually load quite a bit faster off the hard drive (and if you get a decent sized harddrive you can have every Wii game that interests you on it and not have to dick around with discs ever)

op is a douchebag

>>54762319
A hard drive? Not much, really, though it's a good investment compared to disks (you can use the hard drive for your PC, delete old games and replace with new ones, etc.)
If you don't already have a hard drive, you should get one. Other wise, disks are fine.
I dunno, I'm just using my PCs other hard drive for Wii game storage

>>54759173
does weed have a proper position to be in?

>>54762517

My dad might have a spare external harddrive lying around somewhere that he'd donate to me. I think he just got a new one a few months ago, so I'm sure he wouldn't object to me taking it off his hands.

How do I go about loading the games off of it?

>>54762624
Assuming it's a USB hard drive, you just need to get a USB loader
http://www.usbloader.com/
That's assuming you've already hacked your Wii and whatnot.
Anyways, you can get a solid 100 gig USB hard drive for around 30-40 bucks, so it's not that big of a deal. Plus you can use it for pretty much anything else (work, college, etc.)

So you just download Wii game .iso files, put 'em on the USB hard drive, plug it in and run the USB loader.

>>54762624

Just talked to him. He gave me a 1TB external harddrive. Doesn't look like anything is on it, so I'm set.

>>54762624
http://www.gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=188295
get wii backup manager
use it to format the drive (wbfs, you can try dicking around with fat32 or ntfs but i couldn't get it to work right)
if you're downloading isos, use wii backup manager to add them to the drive
if you've got discs, plug the drive into the wii, use the dumper in your usb loader to add them to the drive

>>54762994

I have it softmodded. That's fine, right?

>>54763031
shit if it's a terabyte you could partition it and toss a fat32 partition on there for roms and shit (fce ultra gx and snes9x gx can load roms off of a windows file share, and everything else can load off of the SD card so it's not that big of a deal)

>>54763098
yeah. if you're the guy that originally twilight hacked it way back when you might want to update to 4.2 (assuming you're not at sys menu 4.x already) then bannerbomb it and install newer cIOSes

>>54763225

Fuck, and right after I got done adding a cIOS of some sort that let me run pirated VCs off of an SD card. I think I have 6GB worth of SD cards, and now you're saying I can throw those out too?


dat harddrive

>>54763313

I Twilight hacked way, way back when, but then had a moralfag moment and totally cleaned out my Wii, and then bannerbombed a few months ago. Dunno what firmware I'm currently running, but I installed a shitload of cIOS's, so I'm guessing I'll be fine.

>>54763225
check out UNEEK: you can use a USB harddrive instead of the wii's internal flash storage

>>54763098
Yeah that's perfect. And 1tb? Shiiiitt niggaaa.
Anyways,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG9YKC8FJOY
>>54763060
And listen to this bro

>>54763313
twilight is pure art
When the dude turns around and tries to talk to you and then the code comes scrolling down your TV
that made my heart happy
also I like the ps1 swap trick

>>54763472
if you have an "SD" button on your main menu you've got 4.x

I soft modded my Wii once.

For some reason I couldn't get the games to work from my External, I tried everything.

Wii bricked, memory gone, Animal Crossing town, eliminated.

>>54763760

well then you best be believan i've got 4.x


with 1TB, how many games and shit can i fit on, roughly?

>>54763930

More than you'll need, partition that shit.

I have about 70 games on mine and it's about 1/3 full iirc.

So how do I modify my Wii so I can play isos from a regular HDD?

>>54764036

Scratch that, it's about one third of the partition, so even less.

>>54763825
if you've got an older Wii that can get bootmii installed as boot2 it's almost impossible to permanently brick the wii (short of fucking up your boot2)
if you've got a newer Wii install priiloader and you'd have to fuck up the system menu/IOS the sys menu uses to brick it

>>54764036

/v/ what does partition mean

>>54763930
512GB will probably fit every wii game you'll ever be interested in on it (the ISOs are all 4.7GB or 9.6GB but the actual game channels on the disc can be pretty fucking small in some cases -- a lot of Wii games are < 1GB)

>>54764141
Well I bought my Wii at launch, so it's pretty old.

It's no big deal really, this just gives me another excuse to start again from scratch and get a black Wii this time. Much sexier.

Okay, 163 GB gets you 64 games. Unless you want all the shovelware in the world you won't need more than 300GB

>>54764036

If I do this, I'm selling off all of my GC games and the only remaining Wii game I have, which is Brawl. I kept it around because I wasn't about to go and buy dual-layered discs for one game.

Anyway this is great, and it's all thanks to you /v/. You make dreams come true for pirates everywhere.

>>54764294
dude the older wii > the newer wii

black wii's and all of the new new white wiis can't read DVD-R discs at all

>>54764395
Like I said, no big deal. I wasn't planning on pirating much on my Wii anyways. But if you can find a way to fix my old one, it'd save me a bundle.

In case you're wondering, I bricked it by trying to reset the system's version to 3.4 I think.
