Actually changing the graphics on a Nintendo Wii

[goldencalf]

Hi.

I was wondering if it is possible to change the graphics on a Wii game. Say I would like to make the cow in Rayman: Raving Rabbids minigame Cow-Toss blue or green. Is there any way to do this? Are there anyone who has done anything similar to the Wii?

I guess it’s important that it’s a playable version that works on a Wii console with the Wii and nunchuck.

I don't think you can physically change ones colour in a game, unless the game itself has the setting to do so. If you want sharper picture, you can buy component cables for your TV and make the Wii's picture a tad crisper.

He is talking about hacking the actual rom.

As yet, there is no way to extract or import models or textures to/from Wii roms.

Thank you for the answers.

I was thinking that there should be a way of extracting/importing models and textures to wii games. Is it just a matter of making a program that is able to hack into the source files? On a computer i mean.. Then you can change them and replace the ones you'd like, and then make a new cd that the wii can read.

Anyone up for the task? It would be an interesting project

Aside from needing the expertise and experience to make such a program, you don't think Nintendo has taken measures to prevent people from doing that...

The only console that I know of currently that allows users to create game content is the PS3. Even that requires you to edit on the PC, and then upload it to the PS network... at least from what I understand of it.

Actually, almost every console to date has been possible.

The NES in particular had literally hundreds of different hacked versions of SMB1.

I actually have all the character and enemy models from Twilight Princess if anyone wants them.

Should have clarified; I meant being able to legally distribute your mods that work with unedited games.

Ok then. But that is not what he is talking about.

Yea, I just assumed that's what he meant, because it's pretty obvious to anyone that you can hack anything really... as long as you have the skill
