    Neat! I’m somewhat familiar with homebrew but I haven’t kept up with it in years. I didn’t know you could put Linux on it too

    I wonder how it would do as a media center for the living room. I’d much rather use a Wii remote to navigate on a TV instead of buttons.

    Being able to play Jellyfin off of it somehow would be amazing, I imagine it will need a custom app. Possibly based off of this thing? https://www.wiimc.org/about/

      I have heard of people putting main linux on wiis but in my case I didn’t do that niiofetxh just happens to be a neofetch fork for wii on the homebrew list of apps.

      This is the bulk of where I got apps from https://oscwii.org/library

      A Wii u might be better than a Wii. It was pretty underpowered from day 1 and that thing has no hardware video decode. The wiiu has hardware video decode for h264 video.
