4.2 “Virgin” Wii Hacking made easy

February 12th, 2010

Recently a bunch of my friends have purchased Wiis and have been requesting me to “hack” them. I was doing this manually using TBR , NUS, and a few other tools.

Xzxero and others on GBATemp have come up with a more straight forward way of hacking the 4.2 system, by using a modified version of Dop-IOS, GP DOP-IOS MOD. The GP version is just as straight forward as you can get, as in now you just have to click A 10 or so times to restore back the trucha bug to an IOS.

Sad day in console hacking… Tehskeen is dead …

January 12th, 2010

From Tehskeen.com ;

Dear Skeeners,

Due to circumstances out of my control I have no choice, but to inform you of the bad news. TehSkeen is lost. Therefore, due to internal and external reasons I am leaving the “scene”. It.s been a hell of a ride and five years is a long time to work on something you enjoy to have it just vanish. TehSkeen had a vision and I hope someday someone else will follow this vision. I.m not giving up just moving on. I hope you all can understand this and if you can’t I’m sorry. There are other sites out there with similar morals and content that you can be a part of. Farewell.
