For øyeblikket er det ingen risiko for å bli banned av Nintendo ved bruk av homebrew med mindre du jukser i online spill. Men du bør alltid være forsiktig med å kjøre nedlastede homebrew filer, spesielt hvis du ikke stoler på kilden, da Homebrew kan potensielt skade systemet ditt!
Haxchi er et sekundært inngangspunkt som bruker visse DS Virtual Console titler til å gi tilgang til homebrew uten å være koblet til internett (det fungerer fortsatt online, men trenger ikke tilkobling for å starte CFW)
Haxchi is not required, however, if you want to use homebrew on your Wii U while offline you will need it. It’s highly recommended as it’s more stable than the browser entry point, especially on the newest firmware.
