WIIPC, NINTENDO-STYLED DESKTOP FUN!

Post by soloist »

For those of you who dig the simplistic Nintendo Wii interface but don't get enough of the Wii because not much else has come out since Wii Sports you just don't, the free download WiiPC is a Windows-based launching program that can add a little Fanboy to your desktop. With programmable shortcuts to your favorite programs and files, WiiPC is the perfect way to fool your peers into believing that you've hacked into Miyamoto's personal computer and found his stash of illegally downloaded SNES romz.

You beat me to it... but at least I've included a link to the software, as it was also listed on Fark.com.
I quickly bookmarked it into my "Random Stuff".

The program is a bit basic right now, but if you have the will & the skills to modify the program files (as in add stuff)... you can make it a pretty good loader!

Thanks for including the link, TStodden!
While basic for the moment, as with
any program or tool created, in t-
ime, it's worth and potential a-
re expanded exponentially!!
On another note, have y-
ou seen the animated
screen inclusions f-
rom CW with Fa-
mily Guy chara-
cters walking
about your
screen a-
nd spe-
akin-
g!!

No I did not, but I'll definitely pick it up... although it probably won't run that well on my slow computer.

determine wh-

pass-
ion.
