Used on an unlocked Nintendo Wii Game Console.The Homebrew Channel does NOT alter the Wii system software, it installs like a channel. Right now this is explained on [[Nintendo_Wii#Hacking_the_Nintendo_Wii]]. == Research References ==(deprecated)* [http://hubpages.com/hub/Wii-Twilight-Hack Twilight Hack]: a "stack smash exploit" that lets you run unofficial homebrew code.:: The Twilight hack is the name given to the exploit found by Team Twiizers of Wiibrew.org in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess that permits homebrew developers and everyday users to run unofficial homebrew software from a Secure Digital card inserted into the slot on the front of the Wii. Notably, this is the first way found to boot homebrew software without the use of hardware modifications to the Wii console.* [[Bannerbomb Exploit]]: This has been blocked with Wii Menu 4.3 .* [[Indiana Pwns Exploit]]: Works with Wii System Menu ranging from 3.0 to 4.3 .* Do not downgrade your Wii menu version, ever.* If your Wii bios is not 4.3 then do NOT update it.* Never Ever Ever Update Your Wii From Nintendo. Stack smash exploits exist in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures, and Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Wheelie Breakers that continue to work with all System Menu versions from 3.0 to 4.3, current as of December 13, 2010. If you have Wii Menu 4.3 and you want to install the Homebrew Channel you have to use an in-game exploit in one of these games. ''Wii Firmware Version: Go to the Wii system menu and at the top-right corner it will say your Wii's firmware version.'' Once you have unlocked your Wii using the Homebrew Channel method, keep in mind that upgrading the menu version (installing a Wii system update from Nintendo) will delete the Homebrew Channel. Gecko OS or StartPatch (software) can be used to play games that require updates (if your Wii menu is out of date and a new game requires a menu of a later version) without actually installing them. Gecko OS lets you boot the game and bypass updates. StartPatch makes your Disc Channel ignore them.
