Wii Shop Channel: Difference between revisions

We can now purchase wiiware shop items in Dolphin lol. I'd recommend people not do that until we enable SSL though.

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 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.
