Hello, I just recently got Wii RVT-R Reader(Green). It has 2.0J Menu. Its fully on japanese. It has 5 gamesaves on it. It has DiscCheck Tool 1.01 It has Menu Uninstaller. I'm willing to keep it in my collection. I'm interested in its ability to play wii betas.I want to find Dead Rising Beta(s) for it in the future. 0)How to change Language to english on 2.0J? 1)What else can i install on it? 2)Can it play retail wii/gamecube games or NR Discs? 3)Can it play any kind of isos from SD card? 4)I usually see that these units go with "Wii Menu Changer" RVT-Disc. How much useful is it and can i get it? 5)If i'll change the drive it will become 1:1 similar to any retail unit, isn't it?(I mean what should i do in the future if my drive will be broken???) 6)We have XDK noob guide, what about RVT-R Reader noob guide - does it exist? I remember that it wasn't hard to find how to launch betas/alter xex files/copy on HDD on XDK. Hope to get nearly same functionality but its still a nice buy even if i won't be able to do it - because the unit itself is collectible.
0)I am pretty sure you can't change the language. 1)You can install the Homebrew channel with bannerbomb. (http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Bannerbomb) 2)You can't play retail games on it, but you can play NR games. 3)You can pirate games after installing the homebrew channel. See gbatemp.net for more information. 4)The menu changer discs are used to update the system. I have no idea how useful they are. 5)Changing the drive will not make it like a retail unit. The RVT wii has a different common key that prevents it from reading retail games. The drive is only part of the problem. It's not a ton of information, but hopefully it will get you started.
Thats good. But what about the if it will get broken? Is it possible to replace it and remain having ability of reading "NR"/"RVT-R" What do you think about origin of 5 gamesaves? I want some official documentation for my unit - just something like "DTL-Sxxxx for playstation". what else? can i lose any of that on my way of installing bannerbomb? Is there any way to dump such stuff. As i understand going online is a way to fail,isn't it?
