Wii Twilight Princess Hack

    I'm very surprised nobody has posted about this yet. An exploit has been found in ZTP saves that allows basic homebrew to be run. So far a tetris game has been released but give it a few weeks and I'm sure there'll be quite a few cool wii homebrew apps. Your wii doesn't need to be chipped for this to work either, all you need is an sd card.

    More info and download can be found here http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=Twilight_Hack


    I'd love to try it but I don't have the wii version of TP, anybody want to swap for the gamecube version? :p

    Yeah i've been watching the progress. I have TP for the wii but i haven't tried it out yet. I'm waiting for something serious to come out of it

    theyll never get access to the kernel !

    and surely if they ever got anything even remotely illegal and/or homebrew on the Wii, a Nintendo firmware update would see it off...

    +1 because it sounds like a fact.

    I'm don't know if a wii update could kill it off because it takes advantage of TP and not the wii firmware, I'm more than likely wrong though.

    I'm fairly sure it'll be impossomble to run backups through this obviously, so that's the whole illegal aspect of it gone. It's not illegal/doesn't void your warranty if you run homebrew if you're not modifying any part of the console I think.

    Hrmm, this looks good but I wonder:

    Any chance of it screwing up your Wii or TP? Are there any security issues?
    Is the tetris any good, like the gameboy version?

    I'll keep an eye, dunno if I'd use it yet.

    There was a Wii update today which seemingly kills off this hack

    Are you sure? I can't see any mention of it anywhere.

    Where did you read that?

    "Nintendo have released system update Wii Menu 3.2 across all regions. It does not appear to affect current exploits. Details in Homebrew status"

    Who's this "we" you speak of Butt Demon? Face it pal, you're on your own. No friends, no girlfriend, no life. The only "we" in your life is the Nintendo one.
