DARKCORP v1.1 Released

Chris — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 00:59:36 +0000

DARKCORP (formerly known as cIOSCORP) for the Nintendo Wii allows you to load backup games directly from the Disc Channel exactly the same way you would load normal game discs. This may not work with newer Nintendo Wii’s (unless you change the drive) as they simply cannot read DVD Discs. The benefits of DARKCORP is [...]Related posts:

Update The Wii Shop Channel Without Updating Your Wii

Chris — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 16:07:35 +0000

If you have softmodded your Wii you may be stuck with a Wii Shop Channel that needs to be updated before it will work. The problem with this is that it tells you to run the system update, which as you probably know will remove your softmod and homebrew files. There is a way you can [...]Related posts:

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) Beta Leaks

Chris — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 00:12:54 +0000

Over the last few days we have seen a beta version of the Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1). As you may know the update does not bring any new features to Windows 7, it simply installs previously released security and bug fixes. There has been reports of performance boosts after installing SP1, but I [...]Related posts:

uTorrent 3.0 Alpha Released

Chris — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 21:25:05 +0000

The popular Bittorrent client uTorrent has taken a huge jump in build numbers over the last few days and has jumped from v2.02 to 3.0. The strange thing is they have not really added any new features, it just seems to be bug fixes. This is only the alpha version so I suppose there is still [...]Related posts:

Nintendo Wii 4.3 Safe Firmware Updater

Chris — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 13:11:53 +0000

As far as I am concerned I think it is a total waste of time updating your Nintendo Wii to the 4.3 Firmware if you have softmodded it. The only thing you will gain is support for a USB Camera (for Ubisoft’s Your Shape), the other only reason the 4.3 Firmware exists is to remove [...]Related posts:

New Nintendo Wii System Menu 4.3 Update

Chris — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 12:52:30 +0000

Well Nintendo have now released an update for the Nintendo Wii. The New System Menu 4.3 Update is causing all sorts of problems for owners of Softmodded Nintendo Wii’s. As a result of this I recommend you don’t update if you are using any softmods, including the Homebrew Channel as this is removed (if found) [...]Related posts:
