This is a quick start guide on how to use WiiFlow, a USB loader for the Wii that's used to play games from a USB drive or SD card.
|
|
|
|
#### What you need
|
|
|
|
- A Wii
|
|
- A USB drive and/or SD card
|
|
- [WiiFlow Lite](https://oscwii.org/library/app/wiiflow)
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have installed [cIOS](/cios) before following this!
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
We recommend you copy games over with [Wii Backup Manager](/wiibackupmanager) if you use Windows, [Witgui](https://desairem.com/wordpress/category/witgui-download/) if you use macOS, or [Wii Backup Fusion](https://github.com/larsenv/Wii-Backup-Fusion) for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
If you want to play games that are in NKit format, use [this program](https://gbatemp.net/download/nkit.36157/) to convert them to ISO first.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
If you are not copying games using Wii Backup Manager, Witgui, or Wii Backup Fusion, make a folder on the root of the USB drive or SD card named "wbfs" and put the games in there.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
To play games, we recommend using an external hard drive for your Wii. Flash drives are not recommended, and may vary in behavior even between the same product.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
Make sure your USB drive is formatted as FAT32. Do not format it as other types such as exFAT or extFS. <br> You may format it as NTFS, but it won't work with a majority of apps (eg. The Homebrew Channel, Nintendont)
