<title>possible removal of &amp;quot;Health Warning Screen&amp;quot;</title>
<description> Although it isn&amp;#039;t a really important feature, I was wondering if there was any possible way o remove the health warning screen from the Wii during start up. If it were an IOS, then it could be changed or removed right? I simply find it annoying and evidence that the judicial system in any country is seriously so f***ed up that we now have to warn kids not to play to much video games! I don&amp;#039;t even play them much (mainly just trying Wiibrew apps) but is is really ridiculous. 

So my question is: Can it be removed? and if so, Could someone create an app or cIOS to do so?


Shalom,

In exploring my NAND-Dump, I have been unsuccessful in defining it&#039;s definate location (and how to interpret if I&#039;ve even stumbled across on accident :) ).]]></description>

There are several slightly modified (hacked) IOSes. "Custom" is misleading marketing started by waninkoko. You&#039;ll notice that PatchMii isn&#039;t called "PatchMii cIOS". That&#039;s because only wanky uses that term for modified IOSes.<br /><br />Calling wanky&#039;s stuff "custom" is like calling your car "custom" just because you stuck a bumper sticker on it.]]></description>

There are two ways it can.

IOS can do that too.

No, unless someone releases another starfall-like app. It cannot be done in a custom IOS.]]></description>

Starfall is a program which hacks the system menu in various ways, including removing the warning screen. Starfall only works on 3.2E/U.
