If anyone here doesn't know, The Homebrew Channel is an unofficial channel for the Wii console made by Nintendo. It allows users to run homebrew programs on the console and other such things.

The Homebrew Channel has now ceased development because a developer says that 'key figures' actually stole the code from Nintendo themselves to make the homebrewing possible.

I predict that Nintendo will use this as an excuse to crack down hard on homebrewing and the community at large.

I apologize if any details are wrong, I'm actually not a Wii homebrewer, I just don't want all this work the community has put so much effort into, to just fizzle away.

Also I myself am also not a datahoarder, I don't have the means to do that unfortunately. You lot have my utmost respect for everything you all do.

I realize this may break Rule# 8, and if it does mods, please feel free to remove this post. I'm just worried about all that could vanish and this post is the only thing I can do to help.
