NES Hacks

One of the big reasons people despised firmware 3.3 was because it cut out the Twilight Hack and blocked Trucha Signed discs. Well, earlier this week we got ourselves a new Twilight Hack, but we still needed a way to run our Trucha discs on 3.3.

Fear no more, because we now have a BETA release of Gecko OS. Now as an official BETA, you can now run your games region free. Online has been tested and working too!

This is the first public beta to allow people to try out WiiRD (Wii Remote Debugger). It also has a new Gecko Region Free engine which will boot nearly all games, even from the homebrew channel.

SD card features and USB Gecko client commands are disabled in the version as they are unfinished but I wanted to release a version of WiiRD / GeckoRF engine due to large amount of requests and the fact Gecko RF 1.5 had too many bugs

The package comes as a app which can be launched with the homebrew channel, also a DOL file is included if you want to make trucha based DVDs or custom channels

And what is this WiiRD you’ve been hearing about?

WiiRD is a game hackers dream app, with a large number of cool tools you can use. The official website for it is http://wiird.l0nk.org/wp/ and will also be posted and supported at http://www.usbgecko.com/forums

Documentation for WiiRD including the new cheat code type technical documentation is always included in the WiiRD archive download file.

Included in the download is a file that can be launched from the Homebrew Channel, or a WAD you can install to the Wii main menu. You don’t need both. Choose whichever is more convenient to you.
