Fun fact about the Wii: It doesn't have an OS. The Wii Menu is just a built in game that launches are startup. As for the menu you see when you press the home button, that's built into the games themselves! That's why Homebrew applications always use their own version, cause they can't include the official due to copyright.
It does have an OS called "IOS", which runs on the console's ARM coprocessor. The Wii firmware contains several branches of IOS, and hacked versions are called cIOS.
If I'm not wrong, the Metroid Prime 3 prototype can actually be played on Game Cube hardware but will crash in some specific parts due to not having enough RAM.
I have tried this before and I can confirm it works as intended. Usual install takes about 15 - 30 minutes, but sometimes can take longer. Unfortunately you can not do this on Dolphin Emulator, it breaks the emulated system if you do.
Btw the creator said the video was fanmade in one of their replies. To my knowledge, the GameCube BIOS chip is read-only, unless the GameCube works similar to a PS2 where the system can load "firmwares" from a memory card. And even then, I think the GameCube and Wii hardware are different enough for forward-compatibility to be out of the question.
It can be made but in development gamecubes conected to two pc one with linux and other with Windows de linux pc is by pasing de bios and charging the new os and the windows pc is emulating the brodway chip from the wii along to all tho pther part that wii has and gamecube no
I'll admit there are some believable things about this concept: 1. Nintendo has legitimately released some software updates through games back in the old days. For example, a Zigzagoon traded to your Pokemon game on the GameBoy Advance could update the Pokemon game's software with new content. 2. Video game consoles are still very much computers, even though they're very specialized ones. A disk that can install Wii software makes sense. 3: There is a port underneath the GameCube where you can attach additional hardware. The things that are not believable: 1: I don't believe Nintendo would outright allow a GameCube to Wii update. They would want you to buy a Wii...same as there was no N64 to GameCube update, no NES to SNES update, no Gameboy to Gameboy Advance update, etc 2: The Wii's hardware is different enough that the GameCube, even if you could get it to run Wii games and support a Wiimote somehow, that the GameCube hardware would have a very hard time trying to run Wii games.
If it was real, im sure it would only be to test the menu stuff, and it would be a very early beta. Also, im pretty sure the gamecube's bios is on a one time flash chip.
@@Rage_BX Actually, no. While you could transfer your save data over to a Wii U, you could not actually turn the Wii on a software level into a Wii U. You had to have a Wii U on hand.
I tried this on my gamecube but the light went off right in the middle of the instalation my gamecube now turns on and shows a bunch of colors I guess my gamecube is now done
@@АлександрГолованов-ь3вwell yeah obviously because right off the bat, if you were to do this on real hardware. you wouldn't even be able to fit the wii startup disk in the gamecube
@@mintybudgiei was thinking the other way around, its an old prototype wii with the old gamecube os on it, and then this was some sort of developer installation well made fake.
The editing could have been a bit better, honestly - the installation process images didn't line up with the animation very well. The Wii Startup Disk menu also went by way too fast and was stretched to 16:9 - the Wii and GameCube both defaulted to 4:3. You also didn't showcase the Wii's first-time setup feature (unless that wasn't in 1.0)
The Gamecube-Wii softlocking/crashing at the end 😭 Might be better to just get a fresh Wii unless there's a workaround to the upgrade crashing it EDIT: I guess you could try going into settings and formatting the Wii so you can properly load the Wii setup process? Since Gamecube data is stored on a memory card instead of the system, I don't see why it wouldn't work
I don’t think this is real because the gamecube doesnt have a motion sensor for the wii controller or the gc controller so how did they get the movements so smooth with a gamecube controller
goes to data managment clicks gamecube "i dont have a card inserted?" goes back clicks wii gamecube crashes "my gamecube cant run the wii system memory? wow"
You connect a wii remote witg a sync button that csme with the sensor bar snd a wii remote included in the wii startup disk bundle. And nintendo issues special coupons for games you pay money for to get with codes on the wii shop channel.
It's fake, because the Gamecube doesn't have the components to run Wii software, detect a Wiimote, or motion controls, plus the information on the update box is incorrect, and the restarting doesn't actually do anything at all, it's just there to make it look believable. Edit: Nintendo would never release an update disc either, and if it was "finally possible" then it wouldn't be a disc from 2006
Yes, this video is fake, but since the Wii is just an overclocked nintendo GameCube, if you try really hard, you can get a wii game to run on it at a very low framerate.

does the wii u have an actual OS?
@@IAmComicallyCartoonyYKnow I'm pretty sure it does, since they were able to update the pause menu via a system update.
Fun Fact:
Wii development was actually started with the real Gamecube hardware with more additional hardwares.
I guess that’s why we were able to play GameCube games on the Wii. *already knew that*
And ONLY Wii sports

Also, Nintendo never officially refers to it as “Nintendo Wii”. It was always just Wii
well, you could upgrade a wii to wii u

How did you install the wii
Did anyone notice that the Wii froze at the end?
ye
Yeah
Because gamecube only works memory while wii well with installation you cant and it will receive as a warn and error
Yeah! I just tried this! My GC games got too boring and I can’t afford a Wii. 😔 but now I have this! 😁
For people asking this is Fake and FanMade Video.
The GameCube doesn't have the Storage space to Store Nintendo Wii Title Menu and IOS.
It's editing.
This video would've scared and haunted me as a kid
The Gamecube-Wii softlocking/crashing at the end 😭 Might be better to just get a fresh Wii unless there's a workaround to the upgrade crashing it
EDIT: I guess you could try going into settings and formatting the Wii so you can properly load the Wii setup process? Since Gamecube data is stored on a memory card instead of the system, I don't see why it wouldn't work
its a fanmade video
Can I do this with my Game & Watch?
Hell, I've seen people do it on a deck of cards.
Can you send the ISO? I wanna see if eventually I can get it to work on Dolphin. And even if not, it would be cool to see anyways.
Its fanmade
@@ArtieArchives Oh, well it’s very well done! Only thing I would suggest is the GameCube ambience during the installing screen.

All the gamecube players: omg this works?
When they tried: bro what is this?
Instructions unclear, I put in the disc and it downgraded me to the game cube bios and my wii is now permanently a game cube lol 😂
Weird, I didn't know the GameCube control had a built in sensor to control the pointer on the Wii menu...
merasmus:WHY WHY WOUD YOU DO THAT!!?
IT LOOKS SO REAL BRO HOW
bro evolved his GameCube, just so he can put Wii RC1 firmware
How would you even use a wii on a gamecube? The disk drive on the gamecube is to small for wii games.
Bro went from 4:3 to 16:9 in microseconds
I remember the wii
i don't
Instructions unclear, WiiCube startup disc wont fit in! (；ＴДＴ)
I don’t think this is real because the gamecube doesnt have a motion sensor for the wii controller or the gc controller so how did they get the movements so smooth with a gamecube controller
This update is fun, but I wish my parents would stop arguing
goes to data managment
clicks gamecube
"i dont have a card inserted?"
goes back
clicks wii
gamecube crashes
"my gamecube cant run the wii system memory? wow"

at least we get photo channel, miis, and wii shop

no sd, no internal storage, so how u gonna do it

And you can’t control the menu with a GameCube controller lol

Can you actually do this by launching the Wii Startup Disc.iso on a GameCube with Swiss?
no, its fanmade
Aw man, I still wanna try that for some reason and probably brick my gc.
remind if you instal windows 7 on a windows xp
Can u do now a update for Wii to Wii U?
The final:😂. the wii:🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
Dont Worry That's A Panasonic Q
or A Wii Development Kit With Sensor Bar, Disc Drive and an SD Card/USB Reader (my opinion)
I dont understand, is he playing from a wii or the gamecube is a wii itself idk😭😭
None, it's fake and edited
Real
1:09 why
It doesn't make sense because the Nintendo GameCube disc drive is pretty small to run it 😂
Oh yeahhhh, I did this and it worked, but then it crashed and got bricked 😢
Damn
How will it get brick no internet u cap
the end:
How are U gonna Play Wii Sports? With a gamecuberemoteitmakesnosense
The thing froze up at the end!
Okay but how do you use motion controls on this?
the gamecube controller transformed into a wiimote during the upgrade
You connect a wii remote witg a sync button that csme with the sensor bar snd a wii remote included in the wii startup disk bundle. And nintendo issues special coupons for games you pay money for to get with codes on the wii shop channel.
Wow!!
then you install the wifi card and sd card slot and increase the on-board memory and it becomes a full wii after overclock
Alright, so, I wont touch the wii, but I will however touch the gameboy
lol

Does homebrew work with the gamecube? Lmao
Maybe
How do you do this?

Backwards backwards compatibility
Not much point to updating a GameCube to a Wii Bios unless you installed a hard drive, imo.
