There is a service called RiiConnect24 which has the News Channel working again. If you take the /title/00010002/484147xx/data/wc24dl.vff file from a Wii that has it connected to it and put it in Dolphin, the News Channel will work normally, but will not update.
The RiiConnect24 service can restore the News Channel functionality, but doesn't support Dolphin yet. Refer {{issue|10200}} and see [https://rc24.xyz their site] for details.
