[Release] HBC for WiiU - vWii mode - Wii U Hax - PS3Hax Network

After teasing us with HBC for vWii, the hackmii crew have now released HBC for WiiU vWii mode

Interestingly the IOS exploit comes from none other than DevolUtion developer Teuidj

Dhewg from hackmii.com:

Another year, another console, another Hackmii Installer!

Despite all of the anti-reverse-engineering tricks we put into our last installment of the HackMii Installer, Nintendo managed to find the IOS exploit we used to install The Homebrew Channel and fix it sometime within the last two years. There never was a Wii system update for this, the fixed IOS versions can only be found on a Wii U.

They also blocked our old title ID. Consequently, we have a new release with a new version of The Homebrew Channel; this will install on both Wii consoles, and inside the virtual Wii sandbox inside the Wii U. The currently used IOS exploit is courtesy of tueidj.

Please note that this is not running in full Wii U mode; running this on a Wii U will probably work just like on a Wii. (See if you can find any differences, we can all try to hack the Wii U together from inside Wii mode!)

Also, due to technical limitations of the virtual Wii mode, BootMii will not work on a Wii U. If we are able to resolve this, we will make a new release with BootMii support.

As usual, grab the new installer here.

If you’re unsure what do to with the installer, see this wiki page for a general tutorial on how to setup homebrew on your Wii, and this one at the brand new wiiubrew.org for savegame exploits that still work on a Wii U.

Good times

Guessing you still need SSBB for this as well? Wonder if Nintendo will actually take any steps to counter this that would end up making an OFW update corrupt your system some how. Of course they also said they would do that with the 3ds if it detected a cart in it... which never happened.

Side note: I'm willing to bet messing with the virtual wii inside the wii u would actually be safer than an actual wii. I mean I could see the virtual wii program getting bricked but a OFW firmware update being able to fix it.

Not yet.

Wiiflow is currently being optimised for vWii, and has cut down features already working (not Wii backups or GC yet)

In the very near future expect the vWii to be open as Wii is now

Very nice - if 'full' vWii functionality is achieved then that gives an upgrade path while we await good news on the other side.

That (afaik) is the missing piece to getting USB loaders working.
