Wii Anti Piracy Failed + Repair | Read Description

After mashing the "A" button I was brought to the repair menu. This just wipes the Wii thus unlocking the disc drive. This means the lock was only a software lock. I remembered that I had a copy of RAAE in a drawer and wanted to see If I could unbrick this Wii. I think that Nintendo's repair team used this to recycle Wiis or resell them. Anyways hope you enjoy it!

[@kekgaming420]

Fun fact: In the video description it says that the person had "a copy of RAAE" in the drawer. RAAE is the identifier for the Wii Startup Disk. An actual copy of the Startup Disk has never been found but the data for it was leaked in the 2020 Nintendo Gigaleak. Basically what it did is installed the Wii Menu version 1, and any Wii's out in the wild wouldn't accept disks with the identifier RAAE. This was only used in factories where they were made, the disk was inserted and the Wiis were sold. So basically the Startup Disk would do nothing to the locked Wii. The Wii is still made to deny the RAAE identifier (startup disk). The only way the Wii accepts the disk if its system menu was completely wiped. Only then would a startup disk be accepted.

[@climbingtooth8716]

Technically the startup disc was leaked. I love to tinker with stuff so I flashed the blank firmware on one of my wiis just for fun. Then I made a copy of RAAE on a disc.. Then I put the disc in and played around with version 1.0. After that I put the disc in a drawer.

[@climbingtooth8716]

Nintendo service would use this disc to unlock the wii after being locked from the anti piracy. (Thats what I wanted people to think)

[@climbingtooth8716]

@Lime_on_KZbin it does while the wii. It says that in the video.

[@kekgaming420]

@@climbingtooth8716 No copy of the blank firmware exists rn. Only the code of the blank Wii and images of the "Please insert startup disk" exist right now. But I guess you can flash the completely blank Wii code and images on the system and make it accept RAAE?

[@Abloodywaffle]

Maybe the Anti piracy works like that: After test concludes with a Fail,it wipes out The ENTIRE OS,and when i say entire,I MEAN IT With only things that are left The drive disk for the spining,the text,and the wii logo,to use in the left upper corner,and rapidly pressing A,installs the Repair mode OS,thats just my theory,A GAME THEORY

[@VV_insane]

amazing anti piracy screen, makes you feel uneasy without using jumpscares or anything like that

[@tyr0onyoutube381]

I think for a more realistic screen, instead of blocking the console, it informs you that either 1.The disk may be damaged (and to get it repaired/exchanged) or 2. That the disc is a counterfeit, and to demand your money back if you have payed for the disc. Then eject disc and press a button to return to the main menu Still pretty cool tho!

[@climbingtooth8716]

This is a check to detour piracy. You know if your buying a fake disc most of the time.

[@tyr0onyoutube381]

@@climbingtooth8716quite true, great video nontheless. Though having a scratched/dirty disc can make the disc reader act weird considering how the light refracts. Blocking the console is definitely a very nintendo thing to do regardless

I remember the exact number!" -"There is a fee from the FBI"!? ARE WE TRACKED BY THE FBI!?- As Bill panics,you decide to mash all buttons on the wii remote,and something appears,"Nintendo Repairs"?,you insert a disc that you remember to unpack in the Christmas,a "Wii start up disc" That was in the slevee with the Wii sports disc™ and it factory resets your wii,you are scared,just as the night after the "Cursed Christmas",but you continue to play wii sports and wii play you brought along side the disc,that saved your Wii...and probably your butt,imagine how ANGRY mom would be if you broke your wii in 2 and a half years You go to bed with the same nightmares,but WORSE And you name this..."Day" "The cursed sleep over"...veeeeery oooooriginal, *Matt*

Parts of this video that seem weird: First, the use of a Wii Startup Disc. Nobody has one, even if you burn it. Next, "Dolphin Disc Validator" is slightly wrong. This is a Wii game, shouldn't it be "Revolution Disc Validator" instead? Lastly, sure, you can disable the optical drive. What about disabling the entire console by blowing a fuse? Because you could just use homebrew. You'd prevent that by disabling the USB port (afaik there is one), the SD card slot and the optical drive. This isn't criticism, but it would make more sense.

[@bl0xyg4m3r3]

Oh, also, why is there the 3DS Settings music? At least, as far as I know it is. I need answers. The Wii was released in 2006, so the only possible time this would've happened was with the Wii mini, released around the time the 3DS was.

Nintendo service would have a startup disc or a disc with firmware on it. Dolphin was the codename for the gamecube. The wii is a expanded gamecube so why not use the name dolphin. Also looking the disc drive locks alot for a non homebrewed wii.
