Someone needs to make it so the slot light is always on Think back to 2006, back before the Wii was out. Remember all those promo videos and demonstrations with all those ethically diverse people wearing white polo shirts with vasaline smiles posing for lifestyle pics? Good times. And the Wii was always seen with that sleek blue slot light while people were playing with it. Then came the interactive tours Nintendo did throughout the world, letting the press and a few lucky people a chance to play the Wii before anyone else. Like with E3 '06, the slot lights on the Wiis were also on. But then, as time went by and the release date got closer and closer, less Wiis with the slot light on appeared. It was then that a Nintendo rep said that the retail systems would only feature the light upon startup and in the event of a message. Meh, no one cared...... Except for ME!

getting rid of the health warning screen is possible with preloader?

Sort of, you can replace it with a blank screen via hack.ini and it will auto enter the system menu as soon as whatever loading it does durning the health screen display is done (no need to press A to continue).

Not a black screen, but the back menu. Instead of the healthwarning, the silhouette of the Wii chanels flash and the systemmenu loads automatically. You know, the screen whenever you load to the Wii Menu via the Home screen.]]> mcmeaty Homebrew GeneralMon, 23 Feb 2009 03:57:12 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,8299,10291#msg-10291 Re: Someone needs to make it so the slot light is always onhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,8299,10291#msg-10291

I used Healthii to replace mine with my own that I made. However when installing it on the wii it dosent work for some systems mine included) and you have to rename the file and install it with another app, but i did that and it worked with no problems.]]> ninjafish1990 Homebrew GeneralThu, 19 Feb 2009 17:22:01 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,8299,10217#msg-10217 Re: Someone needs to make it so the slot light is always onhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,8299,10217#msg-10217

I just learned that myself


You'll need to have a record of those damnably unmemorable friend codes for anyone you want to mail, but once you do it's simple: just drop a message to w[friendcode]@wii.com.

Then came the interactive tours Nintendo did throughout the world, letting the press and a few lucky people a chance to play the Wii before anyone else. Like with E3 '06, the slot lights on the Wiis were also on. But then, as time went by and the release date got closer and closer, less Wiis with the slot light on appeared.

It was then that a Nintendo rep said that the retail systems would only feature the light upon startup and in the event of a message. Meh, no one cared...... Except for ME! [/raaaaage]

Anyways, I was just wondering if such a thing would be possible via homebrew?]]> mcmeaty Homebrew GeneralMon, 19 Jan 2009 07:00:54 +0100
