Wii Homebrew Channel

Categories: Video, Wii Console Hack, Wii Info.

The Wii Homebrew Channel is moving full speed ahead. Looks like we have lots of great things coming in the near future.

“The Homebrew Channel is a channel for launching Wii homebrew applications without the need to run the Twilight Hack first. It will list apps stored and organised on an SD card in a nice little GUI, which you can very easily customise with descriptions and shiny little .png icons all by yourself if you want. You can also launch homebrew apps via TCP (with a correctly configured PC) or USB Gecko. Both of those built in options make it extremely convenient for testing out new code, as well as a general purpose homebrew launcher. You’ve seen the video,
now try it yourself!”

    Here is the Fake Wii called the Vii

    Categories: Video, Wii Info.

    Just a matter of time… Here is the first knockoff Wii product. It is called the Vii.

    Videos after the jump.

    “Just in case you thought this whole Vii thing was one big prank, guess again. Our pals over at Engadget Chinese managed to scrounge up one of these clones and put it toe-to-toe with its idol. Needless to say, Nintendo’s unit tends to demand quite a bit more respect”

    Wii Weight Loss Plan

    Categories: Wii Info.

    Get in shape with the Wii.

    “Hi, I’m J. R. and I like to play with my Wii.

    Now that we have that joke out the way, I want to describe what I am trying to do here on this site.

    The idea behind Wiiweightlossplan.com came to me the first day that I had received and started playing my Nintendo Wii back in early January. I knew after a couple hours of playing Wii Sports (and a few sore muscles later) that this gaming system could really be a good workout and could probably help me get back into shape. Best of all though, it was FUN.

    However, I’m lazy.

    I never followed through with this idea until I read the results of the Wii Sports Experiment. Seeing the results of this experiment motivated me, and I’m now determined to do what this guy has done, except on a greater scale. I want to lose 80 pounds! And I want to do it in a year and I want to do it by using my Nintendo Wii as an exercise utility.

    Tools to open a Wii

    Categories: Wii Info.

    Here is all you need to crack open lots of things, like the Wii.

    “There’s nothing like a nice set of screwdrivers to make a person feel special, and the only thing better than an array of differently sized Phillips-head lovelies is a specialised set. Zoozen’s latest is specially grouped to unlock consoles new and vintage - including all XBox, Playstation, modern Nintendo and most handhelds - and will also do a pretty good job of opening cellphones too. Best thing is, it costs just $14.95.”
