hi my wii is getting brick for installing wii menu 2.1 but my wii doesn't support bootmii as boot2 just support as ios
please reply me and thank you.

quiet elbow
#

Recovery mode is only for banner and mail bricks iirc

#

you'll need bootmii or priiloader

queen briar
#

so you downgraded system menu without installing the necessary ios?

#

yikes

#

basically, your wii is irrecoverable without bootmii boot2 or hardware modding

quiet elbow
#

say why do people downgrade the wii menu anyway

spiral sedge
#

Is newer wii!

#

so there way to unbrick my wii?

queen briar
#

no

spiral sedge
#

changing the nand?

#

from older work wii

queen briar
#

no

spiral sedge
#

no

queen briar
#

you could use an external nand programmer to create a new nand, which requires soldering skills and buying an expensive nand programmer

#

but other than that, the console is bricked

spiral sedge
#

oh fuck i need get a new wii but older and newer

quiet elbow
spiral sedge
#

ok

#

so what i'm gonna do with my brick wii and i get a new one?

#

smash it

queen briar
#

you could sell it for parts

#

because the disc drive, gamecube ports, fan, sd card slot etc all work fine

spiral sedge
#

yeah

young ember
queen briar
#

that's not true

#

if you install the correct ios before downgrading, your wii can run any system menu version

queen briar
#

you sure?

#

@fickle finch ?

quiet elbow
#

what about boot2 wiis? whats the minimum version they can go

#

ah

#

also i never got answered about this but why do people downgrade wii menus

#

oh

#

so just for fun

fickle finch
#

how about you try trol

urban wedge
spiral sedge
#

guys what i'm gonna get?

#

wii made from 2006-2008 or get wii u?

fickle finch
#

old wii

#

but honestly the wii u is very good as well

spiral sedge
#

but like wii u cuz you can recover your wii u from brick and have wii backwards compatible

#

and cons is don't have GameCube controller and backwards compatible and don't read blu-ray or DVDs and don't have photo channels on it

queen briar
#

you can install the photo channel on vwii through system channel restorer

spiral sedge
#

But uhh

#

there older wii u do have blu-ray and DVD support?

queen briar
#

no

#

but neither does the wii really

#

wii can't play blu-ray either

spiral sedge
#

ik

queen briar
#

and playing dvds on compatible wiis damages the disc drive over time

spiral sedge
#

wii u disc is like blu-ray

spiral sedge
queen briar
#

cause they were never really meant to play dvds, so it wasn't properly tested by nintendo ig

spiral sedge
#

oh

#

Is cool having wii with 128 mb of ram and 2 gb of nand

#

but only on ndev

urban wedge
spiral sedge
#

and the nand on wii is same on USB?

#

for pinouts

fickle finch
#

tbh i would get the wii u

queen briar
#

same

spiral sedge
#

yeah

#

With wireless screen or gamepad i can play wii games on it

spiral sedge
#

there different models

#

the WUP-001 AND 101

#

the 001 is the 8 gb wii u but 101 is the 32 gb wii u

#

Which is better?

queen briar
#

imo 8gb, as some 32gb ones have a faulty nand chip which can render the system useless

spiral sedge
#

but get the 8 gb/go model?

spiral sedge
#

or get old new wii?

#

i found old new wii in box for $65

#

Let me ask him

#

there a way to know what this wii boot

#

*boot2 or compatible with dvd?

#

old white with wii sports

fickle finch
#

my serial is LU31 if that helps

#

but serial isnt a good way to determine if its boot2

spiral sedge
#

but us European wii

#

not us wii

fickle finch
#

is LU62 compatible

spiral sedge
#

*is lol sorry

fickle finch
#

LU10

spiral sedge
#

fickle finch
#

spiral sedge
#

fickle finch
#

#

spiral sedge
#

fickle finch
#

#

why Rayman origins on wii is not like the Xbox 360 and ps3 ver

#

for level design

spiral sedge
#

#

warm shore
#

try priiloader, bootmii, then restore a backup

#

srry, i didn't read whole thing

quiet elbow
warm shore
#

did not know, been on 4.3 or vwii my whole life

#

i got a 4.3U wii at age 8, and recently i switch to vwii.

queen briar
#

also priiloader works by injecting itself into the system menu, so if the system menu down have the correct ios to boot, priiloader won’t but either

spiral sedge
#

i want see the old wii menu

young ember
#

don't give people ideas like that

queen briar
#

just use dolphin for that lol

young ember
#

have fun

queen briar
#

anyway i'm closing this issue because the question has been answered
