I am wondering if it is possible to make the wii make backround stuff, because WiiConnect24 is kinda backround (in some games, it doesnloads stuff for WC24 Service)

once I add the rest of the stuff. Since I am still trying to get it to hover over stuff and scrolling up and down on a site. All it does now is load the site and I can interact with it so I am adding typing support.

I got it so it routes from instead of trying to access nintendo servers to run opera it instead routes it to my computer which will then load the website as screenshots and a click map so you can browse the Wii. Soon I will make a video showing it of before I release it but now I am just trying to get all the small kinks sorted out

I wonder if it would be possible to do that on your internet channel. But that requires other user agent and certificates files.

Right now I made the proxy be able to detect what language your Wii is in. It right now can support English (United States), English (United Kingdom), Spanish (Latin America), Spanish (Spain), French (Canada), French (France), German, Italian, Dutch, and Japanese.

It detects what language your console is using then switches chrome to that language.

However you can only automatically change the language to the languages your console supports so if you use a Ver. 4.3U the only languages you can change your Wii to are English United States, Spanish Latin America, and French Canada. But if you were using a Europe console you would have English United Kingdom, French (France), Spanish (Spain), Dutch, German, and Italian as those were the only languages that type of Wii was released in.

You can change the browser to any language you would like it will just be that you can’t automatically change it if it is not one of the languages up there and the actual internet channel would not be that language.

This all means I have every language the internet channel actually supports in the proxy.

However there are 3 secret versions that if I could get my hands on I would add support for: Korean, iQue aka simplified Chinese, and HK/Taiwan.

Technically they were never released to the public but leaks from Nintendo I have found the iQue and Korean versions that Nintendo made but never fully finished or released. The only thing is since they were not finished the wads I found I could not install and if I opened them up I found the .app files but I could not extract them as a u8 archive for some reason. If anyone knows anything please let me know.

The actual browser can load modern webpages perfectly and click and hover. I am just right now trying to figure out how I can have a fast stream of pictures without the internet channel refreshing over and over and over again.

I have also added support so you can now change what browser your using like yahoo or google And it will detect that and use google or yahoo to search.

i just heard it was another language that Nintendo made but was never released so I just thought it was cool since I had also gotten the files for it I just do not know how to extract them. Also it would be really easy to add support for them I just need to get the wad files for them that I can actually use

It would be cool if there is something, the wii can download in standby for your internet channel revival on its banner, so it can be seens as WiiConnect24 channel (even tho mii channel also does WC24 stuff and isn’t called WC24 channel)
