Intro: Wii Hack - How to Get the Homebrew Channel If You Upgraded to Wii System Menu 4.0

Some people have upgraded their wii to 4.0 before installing the homebrew channel. Now as most people know, the Twilight hack no longer works in 4.0. So a new way is needed!

STEP 1: Things You Need:

1. a wii
2. a SD card
3. a pc with internet access (of course)

STEP 2: Action!

Go to http://bannerbomb.qoid.us/ and download the new bannerbomb exploit.
Follow all of the bannerbomb instructions and you will have the home brew channel on your 4.0 Wii!!

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sorry but you'll have to wait for a new exploit.

What can you do with the homebrew channel you ask?
Play games, play video and audio, and various other activities!

More information can be found here: http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Main_Page

Do not pay for homebrew or the homebrew channel

If you have a wifi enabled Wii I suggest: http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_Browser

will my wii get bricked after a few years?

im worried

not unless you have wiiconect24 on

um i have a question.... if a wii SD CARD SLOT is Damaged / Broken (Which is mine) is there another way to use hacks?

well you could try a usb. (which never worked for me)

You can use Smash Stack. It is pretty much unpatchable.You need Super Smash Bros. and an SD card. Google it.

Remember not to update the Wii after.
Any Update for 4.4u ? My friend Updated his WII a week before I found out about the Softmod so that Messed that way of Modding his WII SO I Ordered one of those Solderless Chip's and we find it had Plexy all over the Chip's so Now I'm stuck with a Chip I cant use.

Check wiibrew.org regularly for updates; as per your question, I think so.  Look up 'Bannerbomb' or 'Indiana Pwns' for info.
