r/homebrew

i have an old modded wii (from probably back when the wii first was around) and i want to create a backup of the hdd. when trying to use wiibackupmanager, it tells me that i need to format the hdd in order to access it. im assuming because the hdd wasn't formatted to fat32 originally during the modding process. how do i bypass this so i can get the data off of the hdd without losing all of my data? i’ve heard of using WBFStoFAT. does that work well/is it safe?

I’m still pretty new to brewing, so I’m not sure if I should focus on getting one thing right first or just experiment.

Part of me wants to try everything, but I also don’t want to mess up too much.

What worked better for you early on?

Tengo este archivo de esta persona y me parecería sabes si undertale osea ese Port funcionaria para mi Wii y si hay problemas ya no me importa que le pase algo es una Wii para testear

hi yes im reading/using the aroma guide. when i run the exploit and hold B it freezes on the white wiiu screen every single time. i have deleted browser history and cleared cache and everytime. its just not working period. can i use something else?

64 gb microsd in an adapter. formatted to fat 32, and its not named wii u.

I have the game digitally through wii flow. what is the easiest way for me to apply a cheat or mod or something to unlock all the courses?

Hello! I am currently stuck in the Modmii main screen because BOTH (When I was only using one) Wii remotes stop responding, they blink, blink, blink, blink, then shut off. I've tried 2 new pairs of AAs and yet nothing. Got any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone,

me and my gf successfully modded our 3DSs yesterday and everything worked fine until she tried to uninstall a game via the System Settings and now all of the game-icons are gone as well as the important applications.

Is there any way to solve this problem?

Thank you!

"brew install imagemagick". Should be simple right? Just a few executables packed into /usr/local/bin, right?

It's been running for half an hour, downloading and installing dependencies.

It just downloaded and compiled openssl. I already had ssl on my machine! Why does imagemagick need its own copy of ssl? Why does it need ssl at all?

I stopped it when it got to Python 3.14. I already have Python3 on my system. 3.14 breaks things.

Here's what it had installed by the time I stopped it: and, aom, ca-certificates, cmake, expat, freetype, giflib, jpeg-turbo, libde265, libheif, libpng, libtiff, libtool, libvmaf, little-cms2, lz4, lzip, m4, meson, mpdecimal, nasm, ninja, openssl@3, pkgconf, python@3.14, readline, sqlite, webp, x265, xz, zstd

Lord knows what state my system is in now.

Hello everyone! I recently got my 2ds XL and have been looking to emulate with Twilight Menu++. However, after installing it with my PC the message, on the image appears. How do I format my SD card properly? Thank You!

Tried opening Pictochat and it crashed and showed this message (top image). Initially, it was a different message (bottom image). Also my Netpass turned into Japanese for some reason. I was told this was an issue where it was bricked and I'm in the process of trying to get it fixed. (even more recently, I tried using Flipnote and it gave the same error message as the bottom image)

I made a homebrew game in DSGM (DS Game Maker), and was trying to use the NSMB Editor to change the icon. I succeeded in changing the icon, but for some reason it still shows up wrong on DraStic. I honestly don't know if this is a Rom hacking problem, or an emulation problem, but I'm putting it here.

i downloaded usbloadergx and for some reason whenever i try and use the usb device on the homebrew channel (im using a hard drive instead of an sd card) it just automatically goes back to the internal sd slot, where ctgp is, any ideas??

I got a notification on my wii u that aroma has an update so I did it, but now my theme is gone, I now see the NintendoID icon not the pretendo one, any ideas?

Hey everybody!

I am a synth wave/indie artist under the name Starletta based in Nashville, TN. I released my debut album "Neon Cowboy" in 2023 and wanted to keep telling the story of the album in a fun way, so I made a video game based on the story! This is my first NES home-brew and I am very proud of how it turned out. It's a right-to-left scroll platformer where you leave Miami to head out west to California and save your true love from your arch nemesis- Sabot. Love is worth fighting for, and now you have the chance to fight for yourself in this game!

I have carts available on my site (the game is also available on Steam). You can check it out along with my music at starlettamusic.com

Hope you enjoy, let's keep indie art and games alive!
