    I installed BreWii onto my Wii. My Wii version is 4.2u. I was able to install everything fine. I have it configured to where I can play Wii games from a USB external Hard drive.

    I notice the old games such as Mario Kart Wii, Super Smash Brothers Wii the older games work fine for me. Its the new games that will NOT work.

    I have to admit some of this stuff is over my head. What do I need to do to get the NEW games to work properly?

    First off: Congratulations getting ripped off. BreWii is a scam, a collection of freeware programs bundled together with a price tag slapped on.

    Secondly: Exactly what games are you having trouble with? There are games with known issues running from USB loaders. Nearly all of them have workarounds, but the workarounds are different. So we need to know what games you need help with before we can help.

    I've got everything to work perfectly!!! Thank you very much!

    One question...My wife wants to play the classic games.. Super Mario Bros, Bubble Bobble, Donkey Kong, etc... I think that stuff is on the Virtual Wii.

    What must I do to install this as well?

    You can go the Virtual Console route, or even better just download the Emulators, and ROMS.
