Another thought I just had.. Would the old semi-brick fixer disc work? If I burnt off the v290 DVD, set it to autoboot with BootMe should it work? I know the Wii isn't bricked, but should it work to install 3.2E, and from there I can just bannerbomb it? I'll have to take my GC controller apart and give it a shot.
