Wii backup ISO loader

Wow! The team over at Tehskeen has made a way for you to play your backed up Wii games. Best of all, NO MOD CHIP IS REQUIRED!

“The ISO Loader works like this. You create a legal backup of a game you own, convert the ISO file with a special program then burn it. After this, you copy over the ISO Loader to the Homebrew Channel and run it. It will boot the legal backup. Pretty simple. Oh, and no modchip is required. However, it does require you to have Waninkoko’s Custom IOS installed.

This is a unprecedented moment in Nintendo Wii hacking history as is probably going to cause a massive movement in the scene. Too bad Nintendo didn’t take Bushing’s advice on blocking the method of doing this. Maybe they will now? Of course, this sort of thing isn’t condoned by the “general” homebrew scene and when it’s released will ultimately lead to some turmoil.”

I dont know what all the fuss is about!!

people who have wanted to Play pirate (backup) games have always chipped the wii. Nintendo has known about this for ages (its just another chapter in the hackers Vs Manufacturer).

Yes, a few more people will try this method – but beware as there is a warning on the software saying that you might brick your Wii (however small that chance might be).

That being said, what an excellent piece of work, I’ve only tried it on one wii iso and it worked straight away. That being said, i’ll still be buying my wii games.

You people want to try homebrew channel, its good to play some of the home made games and apps.

Right, so it’s dec 2008, when I have deleted the zelda game and have copied the homebrew file to the wii. I get “files may not have been copied”. And yes, the files are not copied, what have I done wrong?

I’ve read somewhere the newest wii firmware version blocks homebrewn (I might be wrong).

acutally no, if you get the newest version of the twilight hack from Wiibrew.org you can still install the homebrew channel
@Pipster, if you live in the us, there should be a twighlight hack savefile with “US” labeled under it.

True you can still install the homebrew channel under the new updates from Nintendo but they blocked the installing of new .wads so good luck trying to get the backup loader to run or the dvd player, they should have just included the dvd playing software with the Wii to begin with then there would be little need to hack the Wii unless you wanted to run the back ups or pirate games that is.
