Step 5 - Backup and play Wii games with Configurable USB Loader, WiiFlow, and USB Loader GX 5.0 - Insert the USB hard drive into the Wii. Safely remove the USB hard drive from the computer. Insert the USB hard drive into the USB port on the back of the Wii that is nearest to the edge (outermost). These three apps are referred to as USB Loaders.
Sd/usb Loader Wii Switch
- USB Loader GX does not support loading Wii games from SD at all. Had to switch to Configurable USB Loader which works just as well (using Mod r65). Launching Wii games though kept giving me an ID Mismatch / SetWBFS error and I followed this guide to fix it.
- I am new to the Wii and softmodding in general, but I was able to get USBLoaderGX running (with Nintendont) through the forwarder, but would love to get the Wii to boot straight into USBLoaderGX using only a external harddrive. I've read a little bit about Priiloader but a lot of the tutorials utilize an SD card.
- USBLoaderGX is a GUI for Waninkoko's USB Loader, based on libwiigui. It allows listing and launching Wii games, Gamecube games and homebrew on Wii and WiiU vWii mode. Its interface, based on the official theme from Nintendo Wii, is easy to use and perfect for kids and all the family.
This tutorial will tell you how to install cIOS (custom IOS). This is required if you want to load games with a USB Loader. Some homebrew might work better using cIOS.
If you have a Wii mini, Install this cIOS instead. Attempting to install any other cIOS on a Wii mini won’t work.
What you need
- A Wii with an Internet connection
