#### What you need
- An earlier NAND Backup made by [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- A GameCube Controller*
If you need help for anything regarding this tutorial, please join [the RiiConnect24 Discord server](https://discord.gg/rc24) (recommended) or [e-mail us at support@riiconnect24.net](mailto:support@riiconnect24.net).
{: .notice--info}
#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
- [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- An SD card
- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).

- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

#### Cause
This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions

This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.

If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.

<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.

#### What you need
- An earlier NAND Backup made by [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- A GameCube Controller*
Solltest du hinsichtlich dieses Tutorials Hilfe benötigen, trete bitte dem [RiiConnect24 Discord-Server](https://discord.gg/rc24) bei (empfohlen), oder kontaktiere uns [per E-Mail unter support@riiconnect24.net](mailto:support@riiconnect24.net).
{: .notice--info}
#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Voraussetzungen
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
- [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- An SD card
- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Anleitung
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.

#### What you need
- An earlier NAND Backup made by [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- A GameCube Controller*
If you need help for anything regarding this tutorial, please join [the RiiConnect24 Discord server](https://discord.gg/rc24) (recommended) or [e-mail us at support@riiconnect24.net](mailto:support@riiconnect24.net).
{: .notice--info}
#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
- [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- An SD card
- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.

This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

#### What you need
- An earlier NAND Backup made by [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- A GameCube Controller*
If you need help for anything regarding this tutorial, please join [the RiiConnect24 Discord server](https://discord.gg/rc24) (recommended) or [e-mail us at support@riiconnect24.net](mailto:support@riiconnect24.net).
{: .notice--info}
#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
- [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- An SD card
- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.
* If you have not done anything to cause a brick (or you're starting up your Wii after a long time), then it is probably a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
- [BootMii](https://wii.guide/bootmii)
- An SD card
- NAND Backup
<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions
If you have BootMii installed as boot2 you will need to launch BootMii by restarting the console. Skip steps 1 and 2 if this is the case.

This brick happens when a non-Korean System Menu on 4.2 or 4.3 detects that the Korean key is present.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)
#### Solutions
Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.

#### Important notes
If you didn't install BootMii nor don't have a NAND backup, please install it and do a backup. You cannot restore a NAND backup from a USB.
{: .notice--warning}
<strong> Restoring a NAND backup is usually a last resort.</strong>
Wii consoles with no GameCube controller ports CANNOT RECOVER from a NAND backup. This is because recovering from a NAND backup while having BootMii as IOS is dangerous.
{: .notice--danger}
#### Requirements
If you are even able to enter BootMii, enter the Homebrew Channel instead, and try your best to [identify what caused the brick](bricks) and reverse it.

<strong>Family edition Wiis (Wiis without GameCube ports) CANNOT restore NAND backups.</strong>
Family edition Wiis released very well after [boot1 was patched](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Family_Edition#Changes_carried_over_from_previous_revisions), which means you will not have BootMii as boot2.
If you do not have BootMii as boot2, RestoreMii will prompt you for the Konami code via a GameCube Controller.
Family edition Wiis do not have ports for GameCube controllers.
<strong>Restoring an unverified NAND backup may lead to a WORSE BRICK.</strong>
The same also goes for faulty SD cards.
<strong>Want to restore individual data from your NAND backup?</strong>
There is likely a much safer and faster way to bring it back to your Wii, likely involving the use of Dolphin Emulator.
For example, if you want to restore your Wii message board data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, find `Wii/title/00000001/00000002/data/cdb.vff`, copy it to your SD card as `cdbackup.vff`, and use [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup) to restore it.
If you want to restore a game's save data, use Dolphin to import your NAND backup, use `Tools > Export All Wii Saves` to export all your saves to your SD card, and use Data Management to move it to your Wii.
#### Instructions

This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii. ![Error 003](/images/bricks/error-003.png)

Since this brick most often occurs after the System menu updates, Priiloader will not be present.
Korean Wiis also released with System menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as Boot2 cannot be installed to any Korean Wii.
The only way to fix this brick is a way to launch homebrew by launching a game through the Recovery menu.
