I'm quite interested in all of the above, seems to be a sort of burst of action in the Wii "scene" recently.

I only really found out about it today. I knew there was a method being developed for loading NSMB levels off SD card, which would also be used in the next RawkSD, and I had guessed it was using a custom IOS because of some hints dropped a while ago, but I was not certain of all details.

There's another method for loading NSMB levels too. You can (or will be able to, I don't know if they've gotten it to work yet) insert level files in the NSMB save and then load them by a gecko code, but Riivolution seems more smooth.

Tanooki v. 1.2 readme
Features:
-Select number of lives
-Select number of coins
-Select current equipment
-Change score
-Change start world
-Select number of items
-Complete every level with all Star coins
-Unlock all hint videos
-Change region of save
-Inject and use custom stages from save file

Usage:

BASIC USAGE
-Extract your gamesave using Savegame Manager or a similar homebrew application.
-Open your gamesave (wiimj2d.sav) with Tanooki and enjoy!
-Remember to hit Update after making any changes, and File>Save when finished.

STAGE-TO-SAVE USAGE
-Select the level you'd like to replace from the dropdown menu.
-Use the '..' button to browse for the replacement .ARC level file.
-Select the 'Add' button to inject the level into the save.
-Copy down the Ocarina code that is generated, or use the 'Create GCT' button.
*This code is necessary to run the injected levels*
-The game may freeze the first time trying an injected save. Try again.
-To remove all levels from your save, use the 'Clean' button.
-When importing a clean save after using an injected save, the game will give a
corrupt save message. This is due to a problem with savegame Manager.
-Simply allow the game to create a fresh save (fixing the problem), then import
your clean save again.

I'm pretty sure there is a Neo Geo emulator, and the reason there's no YouTube player is probably because the Internet browser can play YouTube videos already.
