title: "Creating Wii Game Shortcuts"
---
{% include toc title="Table of Contents" %}
Do you use a USB Loader and want to create game shortcuts to launch them on your Wii Menu? Then try WiiGSC (Wii Game Shortcut Creator), previously known as Crap.
In the case of a brick, [installing Priiloader is a must](/priiloader). Also, install BootMii (as Boot2 if you have an early Wii). Installing brick protection along with following the guide correctly should keep you safe from bricks. DO NOT CONTINUE UNTIL YOU HAVE INSTALLED PRIILOADER AND BOOTMII!

Do NOT make a shortcut for the games "Mario Party 9" or "A Boy and His Blob". It will brick your Wii.

If you get an error saying "The system files are corrupted", don't panic as long as you installed Priiloader.
Turn off your Wii, then hold down the RESET button down and turn on your Wii. You should be able to boot into the Priiloader menu. <br>
Simply enter the Homebrew Channel, and use your WAD manager to uninstall the WAD.
