Frequently Asked Questions

Information about the service itself.

WiiLink is the only service to bring back Japanese exclusive Wii channels after they were officially shut down. We’ve made Wii no Ma and the Digicam Print Channel functional once more. We’re hard at work on the Demae Channel, letting you order food directly from your Wii. With our service, you can experience all of these once more on your Nintendo Wii - possibly for the first time.

Without a replacement service for these Japanese and Streaming channels, they would be lost to time, never to be seen again. However, thanks to our work, future generations of players can experience these channels again!

Absolutely. We develop all of our channels without copyrighted code and material, and rely solely on what is provided within the channel and public knowledge. All code is written from the ground up. You will have no legal trouble from using our service.



Channels

Regarding the channels you install to your Wii.

Check our Services and read that channel’s FAQ. Your question may already be answered! If you still have questions, please reach out. We’re more than happy to assist! The best time for real-time support is within our Discord server, where an active community exists. You can also contact us via our Twitter account!

Will the Demae Channel order real food?

Yes! Some current information: Support has been developed for Domino’s in USA and Canada. There are plans to expand more services over to Demae for other countries. If this ever changes throughout development, we will always have fake ordering, with restaurants curated from our team!

You’ll want to check out our instructions on wii.guide for simple, easy to follow instructions to get everything installed. For video streaming channels from Striim Network, see their installation guide!

Updating WiiLink channels is the exact same as installing! Simply run the WiiLink or Striim patcher once more, and install the created WADs.

Whenever this happens, just press - and then A on the Wii Remote to uninstall the channel(s). Afterwards, reinstall the channel(s) from your WAD directory. If the problem persists, please bring up the issue in support on our Discord server and we will try to help you.

Is your service open source?

Absolutely! We’re a strong believer in open source - from our service backends to our patchers, we strive to release source code. We’re primarily active on GitHub, and highly appreciate contributions! Check us out: https://github.com/WiiLink24
