AnyTitle Deleter MOD is an unofficial mod by Red Squirrel of tona’s AnyTitle Deleter, which allows you to completely delete (almost) any title on your Wii. This is useful as a space-freeing application, an informative application, and a paranoia tool.

It keeps all original tona’s AnyTitle Deleter functions but it allows the program to show the real names of titles instead of just ID numbers, making it easier to select which ones you actually want to delete.

Changes:

After several requests, I reintroduced the function to get titles names from database.txt for all categories. Now the program first tries to obtain title’s name from internal NAND and on failure reads it from database.txt.
