The Homebrew Browser allows you to download the latest homebrew applications and games all through your Wii. You don’t need to take your SD card out. You don’t even need a computer! You can also delete homebrew you no longer want.

No more dead links, no more extracting files, no more finding out that the homebrew application doesn’t include an icon.png and meta.xml in the zip file!

Release notes:

Also I might point out that HBB v0.3.3 Revision 1 is out for testing. Please let me know if you have any issues with downloading apps to USB.

MiiSX is an MSX 1/MSX 2/MSX 2+ emulator for the Nintendo Wii.

Based on fMSX-SDL, so far, it’s a pretty basic emulator. It doesn’t support either SCC, MSX Music or MSX Audio, only PSG.

Only uncompressed ROM files can be loaded, and there’s no keyboard implemented (so only games that work with joystick will be playable). PSG emulation is still problematic.

Features:

– The emulator can run MSX 1, MSX 2 and MSX 2+ games, in ROM format, from SD cards.
– SDHC supported
– Classic Controller and Wiimote supported, as joystick 1
– Basic menu, for selecting ROM file, and changing emulated system.
– Homebrew Channel compatible

Changes:

SCC emulation (enabled or disabled with “-” on start menu)
PSG emulation without problems
Several optimizations
Bugfixes
“X” on Classic Controller now emulates joy button 1+2, good for games like “Zanac” and “Aleste”

MPlayer CE is a fork of the Team Twiizers MPlayer Wii port.

Changes:

Files now first analyse, followed by cache, as cache was emptied on analysing previously so now you’ll see cache filling later.
Improved audio/video internet cache, detects if it is a internet stream, if it’s a radio stream then initial cache fill is small.
Optimizing memory access suggestion from Shagkur, cache thread is now more stable.
A8 patch added for DVD playback in cIOS202 to avoid problems with old ModChips.
Improved libfat and fix for special characters.
Using latest Libfat to prevent possible corruption on sd.
Improved USB hotplug and dvd detection, echi module modified for more compatability with usb devices.
Can now mount any fat partition, shouldn’t matter if partition is set as primary or activated.
Now has real fat32 limit therfore can now play larger files.
Video files that hadn’t worked previously may work now.
New buffering system implemented for when buffering is low, if cache becomes low, it will pause and re-buffer to fill cache-min value, to prevent possible hangs with bad connections. You can see the cache by pressing 1 twice on the wiimote, when cache drops to 3% then it will pause.
Shoutcast TV is complete with caching, thanx to Extrems, Review menu.conf.
If IOS202 is installed via the Installer then DVDx is not required for DVD Access.
