|
Earlier today I was searching for a Wii S-Video cable at BestBuy.com, and I came across an Action Replay for the Wii. Would we be able to use it to aid the booting of WiiLi? The console would be booted off of the AR disc in RAM, easily allowing WiiLi to load up (in theory).
Good/bad idea?
EDIT: Here's the page. It releases early February:

I hope WiiLi will be working by then...

| So the action replay acts as a bypass? |

It *could* act as one.

Yeah. It COULD. AFAIK and from my experience at least on the 'Cube the AR acted as a bypass allowing you to play imports etc. I hope this'll be the same. This in my view almost guarantees WiiLi's successful execution on the Wii hardware, given it's ready to go.

Yes, but aren't we gonna need to crack the Wii Image format to allow normal DVD-Rs or boot unsigned code? And even so, how are we going to compile WiiLi as a Wii Image (.iso or POSSIBLY .rvl)? Mind you, I suppose it will be cracked in time.
Perhaps a version of Datel's Max Drive Homebrew launcher using SD cards, if such a tool was released? I don't doubt it will, with Wii hardware being similar to the GCs hardware. |

Holy hell! I'm sorry I missed this topic when I posted my own about AR for the Wii.  |
