About to take the plunge, some advice please Hi all, Have been reading up loads on the Homebrew / Twilight topics and am about to try it out on my Wii which I purchased for xmas (2 minutes time !!). I am not interested in downloading games or anything like that but just making copies of disks that I own as my son has scratched about 10 of my cd/DVD/game disks in the past and I don't want to fork out for 2 copies of a game that I already own. My console is on 3.1 but I wish to know: 1. Should I upgrade to 3.4 as there is a twilight version available for that ? 2. Should I install Starfall ? 3. Do I need to, or should I run WiiBrickBlocker when I backup an original of mine Any advice apprciated and apologies if this information could be found y searching but I have gone loopy from mis-reading so many posts. Thanks and Merry Chistmas to all TK PS - I was advised to rub Brasso on a scratched disk to help it recover.... bad idea full stop ! next stop a DVD cleaning / repair kit .. fingers crossed.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5888#msg-5888Thu, 12 Mar 2026 20:51:29 +0100 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5934#msg-5934 Re: About to take the plunge, some advice pleasehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5934#msg-5934 icefire Homebrew GeneralThu, 25 Dec 2008 20:16:35 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5923#msg-5923 Re: About to take the plunge, some advice pleasehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5923#msg-5923 tk007b Homebrew GeneralThu, 25 Dec 2008 18:50:57 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5895#msg-5895 Re: About to take the plunge, some advice pleasehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5895#msg-5895

That would be a bad idea as upgrading your Wii will block the programs you want to use.]]> comex Homebrew GeneralThu, 25 Dec 2008 03:37:40 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5894#msg-5894 Re: About to take the plunge, some advice pleasehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5894#msg-5894
But, you can always send in your disc to Nintendo, and they will replace it..

Happy Christmas!]]> DrLucky Homebrew GeneralThu, 25 Dec 2008 03:05:53 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5888#msg-5888 About to take the plunge, some advice pleasehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,5888,5888#msg-5888
