The Homebrew Browser v0.2.5d (Wii Application)

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:

Another quick fix for the homebrew browser, this time my host is moving me to another server which means the codemii.com IP address will change. I recommend everyone update as once the codemii.com website has moved servers, if you have HBB v0.2.5c or below, it won’t work. (I know, I should have implemented this feature earlier
