Guide to installing [RiiConnect24](https://rc24.xyz) on your vWii (Virtual Wii on Wii U) with: CMOC/MCC, Nintendo Channel, EVC and News Channel along with forced 4:3 aspect ratio patching.
Since certain features found in the original Wii are not present in the vWii, we can only partially utilize RiiConnect24. See [what's currently working](#What%E2%80%99s-currently-working) for details.

#### Warnings
We are **NOT** responsible if you brick, or damage your console in any way whatsoever. If you follow this guide exactly, you shouldn't have any problems.
{: .notice--danger}
Do **NOT** perform this guide on any other console than the vWii (Virtual Wii
on Wii U). If you're looking for instructions for a Nintendo Wii, use
[wii.guide/riiconnect24](riiconnect24).
{: .notice--danger}
The following is a list of things that can potentially **BRICK** your vWii (don't do these things!):
* Installing IOS for a Wii console on vWii.
* Installing Wii menu themes not formatted correctly for vWii and/or your region.
* Installing BootMii and/or Priiloader/Preloader.
* Failure during the install of crucial system/IOS titles (e.g. power outage).
* Modifying the vWii NAND without knowing what you are doing.
{: .notice--danger}
If you somehow happen to brick your vWii, [follow this guide](https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-vwii-unbrick-guide-by-garyodernichts.528329). ([Archive](https://web.archive.org/web/20200213194233/https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-vwii-unbrick-guide-by-garyodernichts.528329/))

#### What you need

* A Wii U console capable of launching the Homebrew Launcher (either via the web browser exploit, Haxchi or Coldboot Haxchi). **If you do not have a softmodded Wii U console, please follow [wiiu.hacks.guide](https://wiiu.hacks.guide/), as well as [wiiu.hacks.guide/vwii-modding](https://wiiu.hacks.guide/vwii-modding) and then come back.**
After following the above linked guide, you should have:
