Ready to install homebrew your Wii? Don't buy a kit for this. All homebrew tools can be found for free on the internet; these kits simply repackage these free tools. Things you will need: • A Wii console • An SD Card (formatted in FAT16 or FAT32) • A computer with Internet Access • An SD Card reader for your computer Things you should know: If you don’t know what homebrew is, read. The Wii was not designed by Nintendo to support homebrew. There is no guarantee that using homebrew software will not harm your Wii.

Lifewire.com does not take any responsibility for any problems arising out of installing homebrew. Proceed at your own risk. It is also possible that installing homebrew could. Future Wii updates to the Wii may kill your Homebrew Channel (or even brick your Wii), so you shouldn't update your system after installing homebrew.

To prevent Nintendo from automatically updating your system, turn off WiiConnect24 (go into Options, then Wii Settings and you'll find WiiConnect24 on page 2). You can also learn how to prevent new games from attempting to update your system. It is a good idea to read the before proceeding. The first thing you will need is an SD card and an SD card reader connected to your PC. Steve Earle Copperhead Road Midi File here. It is a good idea to format your SD card before you begin; I had a number of problems with homebrew applications that were fixed after I reformatted my card.

I formatted it in FAT16 (also just called FAT) on the advice of who says the Wii reads and writes faster using FAT16 than FAT32. If you have previously used the SD card to install or attempt to install homebrew you might have a file on your SD card called boot.dol. If so, delete or rename it. The same is true if you have a folder on the card called 'private.' Optionally you can also put some applications on your SD Card at this point, or you can wait until you make sure everything installs okay before you bother with that. In this guide, I will choose the latter option.

You can find information on installing homebrew applications to your SD card on the last step of this guide. The method for installing homebrew is somewhat different depending on the operating system of your Wii. To find out what version of the operating system you have, go to Wii Options, click on 'Wii Settings' and check the number on the upper right corner of that screen. That's your OS version. If you have 4.2 or lower you will use something called Bannerbomb.

If you have 4.3, you will use Letterbomb. If you're installing homebrew using Letterbomb for OS 4.3, click here. If you're installing homebrew using Bannerbomb for 4.2 or lower, click here. (We're skipping steps 3 and 4, which are devoted to the Letterbomb Set Up.). Before downloading, you need to select your OS version (viewable in the Wii's settings menu). You also need to input your Wii's Mac Address.

To find this, click on Wii Options, go to Wii Settings. Go to page 2 of the settings, then click on 'Internet'. Click on 'Console Information'. Enter the Mac Address displayed there in the appropriate area of the website page. By default, the option to 'Bundle the HackMii Installer for me!' Leave it that way. The page has a 'recaptcha' security system.

After filling in the words, you have a choice between clicking 'Cut the red wire' or 'Cut the blue wire.' I clicked the 'red wire' button, but as far as I can tell it doesn't make any difference which one you click. Either will download the file. Unzip the file to your SD card.

Note: If you have a brand new Wii, this reportedly won't work until there is at least one message in your message board. If your Wii is new and you have no messages, create a memo on your Wii before going on to the next step.

To create a memo, go to the Wii Message Board by clicking the envelope in the little circle on the lower right corner of the main menu, then click on the create message icon, then the memo icon, then write and post a memo. There is a little door next to the game disk slot on the Wii, open it and you will see a slot for a SD card. Insert the SD card into it so that the top of the card is towards the game disk slot. If it only goes partway in, you’re inserting it backward or upside down.

Turn on your Wii. Once the main menu is up, click on the envelope in the circle on the lower right of the screen. This takes you to your Wii Message Board. Now you need to find a special message indicated by a red envelope containing a cartoon bomb (see screenshot). This will most likely be in yesterday's mail, so click the blue arrow to the left to go to the previous day.
