I just want to be able to use the shop channel...and maybe learn what the heck bootMii does..

Alright, we'll start all over. Pick any IOS to run off of. I'll pick IOS 36. Then install IOS 61. Once done, install IOS 70. When that's done install the shop channel.

I declare this battle a VICTORY! XD

I got the shop channel working, downloaded the new Nintendo channel and everything!

I also checked all the other channels to make sure they were still functioning. *and they were, YAY PARANOIA!*

And this victory is credited only to ME! It had NOTHING to do with anyone else, or my ignorance for what to be selecting in that menu!

*Now I know selecting IOS 61 as the FIRST thing is BAD!* X_X
