Is it possible for a GC game to load data from Wiis HDD? A program that copies a saved game on a GC memory to Wiis internal memory and somehow changes so GC games loads from Wiis internal memory.
I want to play Melee with my friends and wants every character, I don't have a CG memory and can't borrow it from my friend...if somethings happens to the memory. I just take my Wii over to him, copy saved game to Wii and can play Melee with all things unlocked.
I have Homebrew, gecko OS and SD to the front of Wii.

Summary: Copy GC game to Wii HDD, GC can load from HDD and no GC memory.

No, it's not.

Also, the wii does not have an HDD.

What is it then? But change something in the Wii to save/load on that thing in the wii that keep all saved Wii data.

It wouldn't be possible without several things like system menu hacks, probably more Melee codes, etc

The chance this will be possible is probably very slim...I highly suggest just picking up a 59 block GC memory card, you can find them for a dollar in a few places...

It's Flash Memory, not a Hard Disk Drive.

especially considering the Wii Flash is only 512 MB.. all GC games are 1.5 GB they just can be compressed to nothingness quite often. However fitting those on a that small Flash.. I'd say not possible. Additionally as disc based games perform heavy read and write operations a Flash wouldn't live too long (Flash based storages die quite quickly if you always read and write them.. WiiWare games and VC games are therefore normally loaded into memory to keep Flash access low).

no you can't, but with Gamecube Saver or NuGaSa and some others you can move GC data to the GC memcard if you have one.
