The hbc starts in SD card mode. If you press 1 or 2 you can switch it to USB mode then it will show the contents of the USB drive in slot 2. Try the NZero game as well. Always good to have a working nunchuck
fun fact the wii has a compatibility list of what usb drives it uses that the community found out, there is a spreadsheet about the usb drives that are actually compatibility but usb drives are not recommended because homebrew like usbloader gx and other gameloading software bricks the usb and makes it unusable. Always use a sd or a usb harddisk
@@ZsobixLmao it doesn't matter what port you insert the USB when you are in HBC, and you also have to press 1 to change where to show apps, 2 changes the layout.
oh yeah cavex is getting a big update later on this year (i think) with survival mode and a working inventory sooo love to see a sequel, also it will probably support the pro controller but no promises :)
The nunchuck you were using was most likely not an official Nintendo brand one. Wii sports boxing has the same issue of the nunchuck not sending to inputs to the game.
Minecraft came out in 2011 (classic/alpha/beta in 2009), probably one of the last years for the Wii. We could have probably seen a Minecraft: Wii Edition, but instead the world had to wait for the Wii U edition. ...But somewhere... in an alternate universe... Minecraft: Wii Edition exists...
My uncle used to tell me that he'd download minecraft for me on the wii but warned me that it was alpha and I wouldn't like it because it was so old that there was no beds, and that turned little me off. I regret that decision now -_-
I'm not sure how you got the idea of using an USB Stick for Homebrew Apps instead of SD Card. It's common knowledge to use a SD Card for compatibility reasons and it was a must have to Homebrew your Wii in the first place before the Internet DNS Exploit (the one you used in the vid) existed, e.g. Bannerbomb/Letterbomb exploit, Brawl Stage Builder exploit, etc. that load in the end any boot.elf file from the SD card... which a USB Stick is unable to do anything.
The fact that i was a kid when Minecraft and Wii were popular, I thought that Minecraft on the wii was possible and that one video made me believe they actually ported it. Silly me.
Playing Minecraft on the original Wii without homebrew is a bit tricky, but there's a way to do it! Minecraft was never officially released on the Wii, but you can play it using the Wii's web browser and a Minecraft web version. Here's how: 1. Ensure your Wii is connected to the internet. 2. Open the Wii's web browser (Internet Channel). 3. Go to the Minecraft Classic website ((link unavailable)). 4. Start a new world or load a saved one. 5. Use the Wii Remote to control the game (pointer for movement, A button for actions). Note that this version is Minecraft Classic, which is an older, web-based version of the game. It's not the full Minecraft experience, but it's still fun! Keep in mind that this method doesn't require homebrew, but it's essential to be cautious when using the Wii's web browser to avoid any potential risks. Please can you use this method I have find it with very difficulty
ive looked at the controls of a wiimote and you probably need a nunchuck to _really_ play minecraft: nunchuck: thumbstick - move square (forgot the name) - mine c - place/use remote: d-pad - move camera a - jump b - crouch plus - pause 1 - scroll items left 2 - scroll items right imk if i missed any controls
Ive been a fan forever now and I love your videos and seeing the growth in the channel your so underrated keep up the great editing and effort in the vids.
Hey you should probably know that only the usb port at the bottom of the Wii works for usb drives. That might of been the issue. and sometimes you need to press 1 or maybe 2 on homebrew channel menu and select usb.
It is such a missed opportunity for Minecraft to not have been on the Wii but I guess Minecraft released during the Wii U's release so it would have been odd to divert what little attention the Wii U got back to the Wii. But still, even though they came out, Minecraft on the Wii U and 3DS were such missed opportunities released at the wrong times. Even in an incredibly downgraded form, Minecraft on the Wii, Wii U, and 3DS could have been a huge deal in 2012.
@@gerardonavarro3400 I honestly forgot that the new 3DS wasn't out at the time. You're totally right. But still, something akin to the scope of Minecraft Pocket Edition would have been decent to have on the Wii, especially since it was a time where every single kid didn't have a tablet or smart phone just yet.
You at the beginning: what could possibly go wrong’s You in the middle: well everything has gone wrong. What else can go wrong well nothing You at the end: well the Wii died
You plugged in the usb on the wrong port :) For some reason the homebrew channel can only read the files on the drive when you plug it in the right port. There's two next to eachother but I don't know which one it is
HBC has GC controller support, should have checked if it worked in the menus and just load the game with no wiimote . Also you can set it up so it launches the HBC on boot, or even a specific app/game.
While the Wii ultimately didn't get as much play time from Child me as the 360 and ps3 did, I am super nostalgic for it and it's one of the things I think of first when reminiscing on my childhood. It was super innovative for its time and felt like the first step into methods of gaming that allowed you to be more involved. While today we have shit like VR headsets that blow the Wii out of the water, I remember loving the motion controls back then on games like Wii Sports.
If someone showed me this a few years ago I would have believed that they made Minecraft Wii edition.

With Minecraft on the Wii, you'd probably never need another console again at this point..
