The '''''Wii Shop Channel''''' allows users to download [[Virtual Console]] games, [[WiiWare]], and [[Wii Channels]] directly to the [[Wii]]. Nintendo uses [[wikipedia:Wii Points|Wii Points]] as the currency within the channel, and many downloads require payment.

Ideally, the functionality of this channel inside Dolphin would allow for download of Virtual Console Arcade games, WiiWare and Wii Channels directly to the [[Wii Menu]]. Currently this is impossible to achieve because of missing or improper IOS emulation.
As of {{revision|5.0-2870}} it is possible to not only download demos, but also to buy Wii points and purchase titles. If using a real Wii NAND, that Wii will be able to download those titles as purchases are tied to the console ID. Titles downloaded are installed directly to your system menu.

Keys from a real Wii are required. Nintendo's servers (and more specifically the authentication service -- IAS) check for the Wii's identity and will deny access to the shop if the device certificate is not signed by Nintendo.

*If the device ID and certificate mismatch, Nintendo will not allow accessing the shop.
If the device ID and certificate mismatch, error 205906 will be shown on start because the console is already registered (as far as Nintendo knows). This is non fatal and as long as Dolphin's Wii country setting matches with the original account's, it is possible to simply dismiss the error and access the main page.

=== Proper NAND ===
The Wii Shop Channel is a bit picky about installed titles in the NAND, so a proper NAND is required.

=== <s>Post-Install Error 206674</s> ===
 
Error 206674 will appear before a title installation completes for the first time. This is due to a title caching issue in Dolphin and is non-fatal. The cache issue is partially fixed in {{revision|5.0-3004}}, enough for this error to disappear and downloading to SD card to work.  
=== Tickets are not decrypted properly ===
The Wii Shop channel uses console specific ("personalised") tickets, which Dolphin currently does not handle correctly at all. This results in contents being decrypted incorrectly. A fix is pending.


=== Error 206674 after installing a title ===
=== <s>Existing Title Updates</s> ===
Error 206674 will appear before a title installation completes for unknown reasons, even though the install completed successfully.
The Shop makes no attempt to download and install new title contents, which results in broken channels after an update. Fixed in {{revision|5.0-2874}}.
