Tried everything but can't get USB Gecko working :(

[michael2016]

Hi all,

I just received my USB Gecko but for the life of me can't seem to get it working at all.. I was under the impression that I could get it working on my Wii without an SD card but this doesn't seem to be the case. My Wii is version 3.3 but according to the many wiki documents I've read, that shouldn't be a problem.

I can't get the homebrew channel on my Wii by means of disc - and I can't do it with an SD card as I don't have one so what other options do I have?? When I try to connect via my pc it says that there was an error and to retry.

If you could help me I'd really appreciate it because I'm out of ideas

Thanks again everyone,

- Michael

An SD card with reader costs $12 at places like Target, Kmart, and Wal Mart.

You need one.

edit: You can also buy them online (card and reader) for $1 online. lol

I don't think so. The HBC uses the SD card to store its apps, such as Gecko OS and Ocarina.
