Starfall gets rid of some annoyances of the system menu, but it’s an ugly low-level filesystem hack that will get erased with any Nintendo update. PatchMii was developed to get rid of some of the restrictions of IOS – but it’s not particularly practical, and only really works for one IOS at a time. Now, there have been some hacks around the system, of course. This isn’t a bad thing (it provides many bits of code that we don’t have to write), but it also means we have to follow its rules. Every piece of Wii Homebrew currently depends on Nintendo’s IOS. We can avoid updates and try to understand the existing system, but we’re still dependent on it. Sure, we can run our own stuff, but ultimately we’re users of the system – everything we do has to go through Nintendo’s software. Up until now, we’ve had little control over what software our Wiis truly run. The first thing that you need to realize is that BootMii isn’t a single application or hack – it’s a platform for hacks. The hardware in the video is merely for debugging. Oh, and by the way, before I bore you and you stop reading this, at least note that BootMii is entirely software-based. I think it’s time to answer some questions about what it really is, what it does, and how it will help you. A few days ago I posted a video of something that we’ve come to call BootMii.
