Wii Homebrew Channel Beta Trial now available

Nintendo Wii - Image 1It wasn't so long ago when we reported that Team Twiizers, the creators of the Twilight Hack, were working on a Wii Homebrew Channel. The developers have finally released a beta trial version of the channel which will allow Wii owners to try this service for yourself.

According to the release post, this beta currently allows users to try the channel for ten minutes before the trial expires. Once it does run out of time, it cannot be reinstalled so you might want to make the most of the trial period.

While the file doesn't come with a readme document, Team Twiizers was nice enough to give out some installation instructions. Here's what they posted:

Assuming the Twilight Hack is already installed on your Wii;

  1. Download the installer from the section below.
  2. Place the installer file on the root of your SD card.
  3. Rename the file to boot.elf
  4. Run the Twilight Hack, and allow the installer to load.
  5. READ THE DISCLAIMER! In the very unlikely case your Wii should be bricked by the installer, this will let you know where you stand in regards to Team Twiizers.
  6. Press the RESET button on your Wii.

The installation should be automatic from this point on, and your Wii will reboot.

The Homebrew Channel is the new channel with no skin/theme.


Kudos to stonesam 92 for the hot tip.

I know, it's weird they'd do that, but I guess they have their reasons.



Coincidence, but it's the same exact thing MPH did when he released the GTA LCS loader back in the day for the PSP Homebrew scene.



Also, this uses an older/stable build of the Chainloader, so basically, if you don't have an SD Gecko, don't bother using this because it doesn't read from the front SD Slot.
