Is Homebrew worth it in 2024?

Hey everyone! I recently plugged in my wii again after having it in the wardrobe for over 5 years and I'm having a blast! I've seen some videos talking about homebrew and it seems really nice as I saw that with usb loader gx you can install any game you want for free. After some research I read that the wii can get bricked. I don't know a lot of stuff about the wii so if you can, please tell me, what are the possibilities of my wii getting bricked, how hard is it to mod it and if the whole modding scene is safe. I really can't have my wii bricked or harm it or something like that. That wii has all of my childhood in it so it's really important that it remains fully functional. Sorry for the bother, thanks!

Wii games for a slow learning friend

I have a friend and we want to play fun multiplayer games. I have wii sport , resort, play and party. I really want her to get good at some game that is new to the both of us. I have been playing all these games for more than 14 years now and i find it really difficult to even try and have a close match with her. I really want her to love the Wii. Which games should I play with her/ what should I do?

Lyrics Display

Hi y'all. Is there a way to use Wii Homebrew or media to sync displayed lyrics to audio?

I'm well aware the US prohibits this kind of thing bc of copyright but as a deaf person, I need to be able to have the lyrics to understand the songs.

If you have any other avenues worth checking out that will help me in my cause, please feel free to suggest them!

Was loaned/gifted a Wii

My buddies were nice enough to bring their Wii over, and let us use it. I’ll tell you what it’s been a blast. Truly. Had one as a kid, and having one again has been a blast. Question just in general since I’ve seen it pop up more than once going through the threads. When folks say they have modded Wii’s what’s exactly that? Is there something that by doing that really opens them up? I remember jailbreaking my iPod as a kid, and that’s about as far as I went “modding anything”

Also is there a better way to have the Wii connect to the TV via the RCA HDMI adapter thing? Someone said to me they eventually did switch to HDMI - RCA cables or something.

Thanks again

Looking for my first Wii, advice?

I plan on using it for homebrew mainly 240p stuff, as I upscale GC and Wii already for my modern TVs. The Wii would be hooked up to a CRT via S-Video. Is there any specific Wii that I should get for this purpose? Thanks for any general tips too, cables, controllers, memory cards etc.

Does anyone use the plastic Mario Kart wheel when they play ?

I found one. Was wondering if it really made a difference in gameplay as I’ve yet to play Mario Kart Wii.

Good SD Cards for Homebrew?

Hi all, owner of a homebrewed Wii here. I have a 32GB SD card and I’m looking to upgrade to something in the 256GB range (or higher). I’m vaguely aware that some cards don’t work well with homebrew and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on what to buy?

It just occurred to me Mario Paint would have been really fun on Wii. Are there any similar, fun painting games using wiimote? Or is it just shovelware?

Give me your recommendations!

Here’s my Wii and GameCube collection

Some may consider it pretty small and missing some must-have games, but I kinda like where I’m at right now with Wii collecting. There’s certainly room for improvement (which will happen) but for now, I think it’s pretty good!

PAL Wii 60Hz issues

Hello! I've recently dug up my old Wii, but I have issues getting it to work on 60Hz in the Wii settings.

What happens when I select it is that it distorts the picture, forcing it in the upper left corner and cutting it in half.

I'll preface this by saying that I truly don't know much about cables and what's possible with my setup, so I'm posting this here in hopes someone knowledgeable can help me out.

The photo is how it's wired to the TV. The TV only has the SCART and HDMI ports.

The TV is a Grundig 55 GUB 8765.

It's a modern TV, so I'm not sure why this is even happening. I've dug through the TV settings many times, hoping to find something that could fix this, looked online, but I still can't figure it out on my own.

What can I do to get it to work properly?

Thanks in advance!

Most Underrated Wii Game?

So I just got NCAA Football 09 All-Play the other day, wanted something to hold me over until the new college game comes out. I had low expectations going in because the NBA Live All-Play honestly sucks and I figured it would have the same features

I was NOT expecting it to have basically every feature I was looking for, especially considering how newer (2010-2013) Madden games on the Wii don’t have everything I’m looking for

This got me thinking, this might be the most underrated Wii game to me, although it still goes for around $20-$30. Maybe I’ve just been sleeping on it this whole time and it’s more popular than I think? What are your guys’ underrated games? I’d love to add some to the collection!
