ModMii 4.3.2

Jeremy — Wed, 13 Oct 2010 17:49:46 +0000

ModMii for Windows

Windows based wizard style program for up/downgrading to firmwares 4.3, 4.2 and 4.1 (Support for all wii’s: U,E,J,K and even Region Changed formerly Korean wii’s)

When using the download wizard, a custom guide will be generated based on the users answers to a few simple questions

This can automatically download all the files you need to install and modify your choice of system menu 4.3, 4.2 or 4.1. (the exact firmware and region is configurable and totally up to you, see video below)

Grab cIOS/cMIOS Wads, cIOS/cMIOS Installers, IOSs/MIOSs, System Menu’s, Wii Channels (ie. news channel, internet channel, wii speak channel etc.), Priiloader (with hacks), MMM, Yet Another Wad Manager Mod, Dop-Mii, Bannerbomb (both versions), the HackMii Installer (downloaded via bootmii.org and Team Twiizers said it was okay), and much more.

Install SNEEK, build SNEEK NAND dumps, and Batch Extract Wii Game/ISOs for use with SNEEK+DI or UNEEK+DI

Customize Bootmii, Wad Manager and MMM start-up settings using ModMii Configurators to create a custom config files

Patch system menu IOSs on the fly for offline installations on the Wii

This is also capable of downloading 000000**.app files for Sneek and MyMenuify

This includes an easy to follow SOLUTION for the upside-down homebrew channel and the HackMii installer No Vulnerable IOS problems

This includes an easy to follow Custom guide to setting up a USB-Loader (including how to format/partition your external hard drive)

Advanced Custom Downloads Feature will allow you to easily patch and change the slot/version of IOSs/cIOSs (only use this feature if you know what you are doing!!)

All the downloaded files will be packed into wads (unless otherwise specified) for easy offline batch installation with a Wad Manager (YAWMM or MMM recommended).

Usage

Download ModMii

Run the “ModMii.exe” file by double-clicking it (if it doesn’t work right away, you may need to right-click it and select run as administrator, also make sure your firewall is not blocking the program from accessing the internet)

Choose an activity from the list on the Main Menu to customize what you want to download (see screenshot above). Note, a custom guide will only be generated when “ModMii Wizard (W)”, “HackMii Solutions (H)” or “USB-Loader Setup (USB)” are selected.

It’s very simple, so I won’t even go into the details, but here’s a video tutorial made by Pepxl based on v4.0.1 (thanks for the great video man!!). Later versions work much in the same way, so its still a great tutorial even if you are using a newer version.

Wait until the program is done working, verify that all the files downloaded “OK”, then (if you didn’t change the drive letter to your SD card) locate the newly created folder called “COPY_TO_SD”. Copy everything inside this folder to the root of your SD card (merge folders if it asks).

Now just follow the generated guide.

Sand Traps

Sand Traps is an original puzzle/platform game for Wii homebrew.

In some levels you can add new stone, and in some levels you can also remove it again so you can reuse it elsewhere.

Latest DSi and Wii firmware reportedly blocking flashcarts

Mickey — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 21:17:44 +0000

GamesIndustry.biz Reports:

The latest firmware updates for Nintendo’s DS and Wii are reportedly preventing the function of many flashcarts and modifications designed to enable piracy and homebrew on the machines.

Officially the Nintendo DSi Menu Ver 1.4.1U update, which became available on Tuesday, is listed as “providing behind-the-scenes improvements to system performance” but many users of unsanctioned storage devices are claiming that the true intention of the update is to block the use of flashcarts.

Not all flashcarts have been affected, with the notorious R4 apparently escaping the fix, but many models have been disabled following the update.

The import, advertising and distribution of DS flashcarts was ruled to be illegal across the UK in July.

Wii homebrew users are also reporting that the Wii Menu 4.3U update has disabled some features which let them use unofficial homebrew material on the console.

The update itself warns customers that “if your Wii console includes unauthorized modifications this update may detect and remove unauthorized content causing immediate or delayed inoperability of your console” before they install it.

The reports follow hot on the heels of Sony’s recent 3.42 firmware release for the PlayStation 3, which prevents the controversial Jailbreak dongle, the first device to circumvent the PS3′s anti-piracy measures successfully, from working.

Updating firmware is optional, but many new software releases traditionally require the latest system software to function.

Nintendo wins case against Wii mod-chip sellers

Mickey — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 04:52:03 +0000

The Hague District Court has upheld a ruling on behalf of Nintendo against 11 retailers accused of the illegal selling of piracy chips and cartridges for the Wii and DS consoles.

Retailers had been importing and selling the piracy aids in the Netherlands, and the court also rejected the retailers claims that Nintendo was engaging in unfair competition.

Nintendo responds:

“Nintendo welcomes the decision by the Hague District Court to uphold its claim that 11 online retailers operating in the Netherlands have acted unlawfully vis-à-vis Nintendo by importing and selling game copiers for use with Nintendo DS and mod chips for use with Nintendo Wii,”

“These devices circumvent Nintendo’s technical measures designed to prevent software piracy. Nintendo also welcomes the decision by the Hague District Court to reject the online retailers’ defence that Nintendo has engaged in acts of unfair competition.”

Nintendo said it was acting on behalf of all its development and publishing partners, as well as upholding the quality and standards associated with legitimate Nintendo products.

“Nintendo protects its intellectual property rights globally and takes action to prevent the distribution of pirated software and devices that allow illegally downloaded software to be played. Nintendo takes this action not only for the company’s sake, but in the interests of its partners who spend time and money legitimately developing software for Nintendo videogame consoles and systems, and customers who expect the highest standards and integrity from products bearing the Nintendo name.”

New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe!, SMB remake available by Christmas

Mickey — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 02:06:53 +0000

GBATemp forum member, gridattack, updated us with his project “New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe!” NSMBD! is a hacked version of New Super Mario Bros. DS. NSMBD! recreates all of the levels from the 1985 NES original, Super Mario Bros. and also includes the Lost Levels (Which were featured on the SNES game, Super Mario Allstars) to run on the same engine and use the same graphics as the DS title.

Gridattack is saying that the game has fined tuned all of the problems that have been seen in the early videos (seen below) and added new levels. All of levels 1-6 should be available by December 24th, 2009 and maybe even ALL levels.

Check out the videos so far (most bugs or inconsistency’s with the original have been addressed and new videos will be posted as they arrive), also mute your speakers before watching any of the videos, you’ll thank me.
