    So i bought this wii some weeks ago, and I gave it to my cousin so that he would hack it so that it could read backup copies of my games. He gave it back to me but it seems the same to me. If he did hack it, then the menus would change, or there would be more channels there right? He tells me that everything is in an SD card that he forgot to give to me, but I suspect that he didn't do anything to my console. So, since I have almost no experience in this, can someone point me to a noob guide to hacking a virgin 4.3u wii? Thanks a lot.

    Wiis that have not previously had homebrew on it are risky to hack. You are going to brick it if you dont know what you are doing or follow a guide that starts you off with 4.3u virgin. I suggest you wait.

    I used this guide HERE on a 4.3 virgin the other day and it worked perfect.

    Just make sure you follow the steps word for word. I would suggest reading it a few times before trying it out.

    As always there is a risk of a brick if things don't go as planned and you make a mistake.
