2. Click on any of the apps you want by checking it
3. Click “Generate My Custom Pack”
4. Download it and store where you can remember
5a. If you saved it as a ZIP file, extract it to the root of your SD Card

GuitarFun, a clone of Guitar Hero has now been updated with many new features. It now supports the Wii Guitar, and one of the most anticipated features, Online Multiplayer.
As promised, here dejo la version 2.9 for the testeeis. As you see, I have a curious policy that instead of electing a group of privileged people to give evidence, we treated everyone as privileged users
Those of you who are regulars of this site already know that we have a tournament in works for SSBB (Super Smash Bros Brawl) and Mario Kart Wii. For those who are new and dont know what im taking about, please follow the link below this for more information.
While we are gathering the participants for the tournaments, some of you would like to just battle others for the fun of it and some of you want to practice with others. Well here is your chance to do just that. NES-Hacks member xeareas created a topic dedicated just for random battles. Use this to your advantage for practicing and/or just for fun.
As for those waiting on the tournaments, more information to come in the next few days. So get your friend codes ready and register

NES-Hacks presents SSBB & Mario Kart Wii Tournaments
iTouchDS firmware 1.9 has been released for the Nintendo DS. See Changelog below..
CHANGELOG
1. Passcard function:
Press “B” at INITIAL TURN-ON = SLOT-2 NDS BOOTING
Press “SEL” at INITIAL TURN-ON = SLOT-2 GBA BOOTING2. Press “L” at the main meun to adjust the black light contrast
3.Smoother the process of selecting files or folders. The speed of listing games should also be improved.
4.State restoration. For example if you turn off the console on the Setting screen the next time you turn on the console it will boot into that same state which in this case the Setting screen. Note this does not apply to in game state. If you turn off your console during in game play the next time you turn the console on it will return to the Game Listing.
5.Improve the game compatibility
According to marcan at HackMii, he is stating that they hope to have DVD access for Homebrew and Homebrew ONLY for unmodded Wii’s in the next coming weeks. They are already working with the creators of MplayerWii to release a proof of concept. To top it off, he also announced that they have DVD-loading versions of SNES9x and GenPlus.
On a side note, it seems like the engineers at Nintendo never actually reached bushing for a conversation… What will come out of that?
DVD Access Library (no modchip required)
Note: this is not a backup loader, in any way, shape, or form. If you’re looking for a backup loader, please move along.
While Nintendo did reply to bushing’s open letter, he has not succeeded in establishing a conversation with an engineer about the issue. Furthermore, we have learned that they received and read at least two of the original three e-mails that were sent prior to the open letter, and decided not to reply (in fact, one of their replies was to one of the original e-mails, but only after the open letter was posted). Therefore, we can only conclude that they are not very interested in the issue.
As many of you may already know or have deduced, the bug in our open letter referred to a way of reading DVD-Rs (and Video DVDs) without the use of a modchip. Several people have investigated the bug independently, and they’ve gotten pretty close. However, we did discover an easier way of enabling this mode from homebrew, which, among other things, does not require any changes to IOS at all. This method is also relatively difficult to transform into some sort of backup loader.
Erant has been developing a library that uses this trick to enable DVD access for homebrew. We hope to release it this coming week, after a few details have been polished. svpe and dhewg have been working on a native mplayer port that uses this library to play back DVDs, which we hope to release as a proof-of-concept together with the library. We also have DVD-loading versions of snes9x and Genplus.
Non-modchip users will not need a custom IOS. Ironically, this method doesn’t work for users of some modchips. Therefore, these users will require a patched IOS using the well-known UnencryptedRead patch (the library will automatically use it if needed). We’ll try to release a somewhat more user-friendly version of patchmii dedicated to this task together with the library.

WOW… seems like the Wii scene is getting hotter than ever. Could you believe that this is true? Waninkoko seems to have released the bug to a fellow hacker and they seemed to have cracked it. What are your thoughts? Please take this with a grain of salt right now as its just a rumor and have not been proven yet.
Translated from Tehskeen
Beforehand, I have to say that Waninkoko explained me all of this. I know publishing this here is betraying him, but without publishing it i’m betraying myself for having the way for the scene to advance and not using it.
The exploit is all about the Nintendo’s idiotness. If you look at the DVD commands taken from the Revolution SDK there’s 8E DVDLowEnableDVDVideo, that they forgot to remove. If you can modify IOS to use this funcion instead, this activates a special mode from the DVD to enable DVD-R reading (in this case, its purpose was enabling VIDEO DVD’s)
If you modify IOS to enable this (you need to do it in a special way), you could enable reading of DVD-R’s from homebrew and the DVD drive would read it.
About backup loading.. you have to work that out a bit first.
To read data once DVD-Video mode is activated, another special funcition is used, that is, a backup would use the normal function, not the dvd-video one, so you would have to hack a little more for the backups to load.
DVD_LowEnableVideo was programmed for a DVD player that they didn’t create, but they left it there. The thing is, activating DVD Video mode is not simple as it checks for the UID of the process that wants to activate it, it can only be activated if the UID is 0, depending if the mode is activated or not, a variable is set to 1 or 0.
Using another reading function which is very similar to DVD_LowUnencryptedRead you could read discs in dvd-video mode and read sectors in a normal way. The problem is that DVD games use DVD_LowRead; to read data from the game partition we need it to use the special reading function, ¿how? Hacking IOS (creating a backup-only IOS), patching-on-the-fly (difficult).
That’s all. I’m Dj-Celta with my new user.
Message for Waninkoko: I’m sorry, I couldn’t keep it to myself and I can’t understand not publishing the bug. Nintendo knows about this.
Message for the rest: Don’t ask me, I don’t know anything else.”
The GBA emulator for the Wii has been updated. New features added are Save States and battery saves automatically being written to the SD Card instead of saving manually.
Version 7.24.08
- battery saves are now automatically written to SD Card
- savestates are implemented:
pressing + in the ingame menu now writes a savestate,
an option to load the savestate appears on rom load.
(only 1 save state per game for now)- the screen has been enlarged as much as possible without changing the
aspect ratio.
