Wii Hardware Cheats for Nintendo Wii
192 Piece Puzzle
At the puzzle piece selection screen hold down the 1 button and an option for a 192 piece puzzle appears.
Constellation
Go to the News or Forecast Channel. Go to the globe. View the Earth as far back as you can and go to Asia with The Philippines almost in the middle. Have a lot in the east but so you can still see some blue. Look to the right of the world and you will see the Orion constellation.
Determining Wiimote battery life
Press Home to show your Wiimote’s battery life. When the battery life is at one bar, the light on your Wiimote will grow dim. Another way to check your battery life is to turn on your Wiimote. The number of lights flashing represents your battery life.
Moving Wii Channels around
Hold A + B when you move the Wii Pointer over a Wii Channel to move it to the left, right, or the bottom. Note: You cannot move the channel that you are playing games on.
Photo Viewer Hint Cat
While in the menu of the photo viewer, a cat should walk across the top title bar. If you catch the cat with the Wiimote by clicking on him before he runs away, he tells you secrets and tips about the Wii.
If you do a mood change to a movie file, the sound also changes.
Press D-pad Down and select the eraser while doodling. This will undo some of your changes.
During a slide show, press Plus or Minus to adjust the volume. You have more volume options with MP3 files than you do with the default music.
Aim the pointer at a photo and press D-pad Up or Down and something will happen around the pointer.
To easily move from a close-up of one photo to a close-up of the next, press D-pad Left or Right.
When you have many photos on your SD Card, you can press D-pad Up or Down to scroll through them.
To easily create composite photos, first use the scissors to cut a piece out of one photo, then move to the photo you want to paste that piece onto.
The scissors in Doodle can do more than just cut. Press 1 while you cut or after you have cut.
If you hold some buttons down, you may be able to scroll faster.
Shoot fireballs
When Mario or Luigi run across the screen in their Fire Flower costume while downloading a game in the Shop channel, press B to shoot fireballs.
System update
Note: You must have an Internet connection.(wireless, LAN, USB adapter, etc). Test the Internet connection or go to “Wii System Update” at the Wii options menu. You will be able to enhance your Wii’s capabilities and allow it to use the other channels on the Home menu.
Weather Channel: Turn globe
Hold A to grab the Earth. Then, move the Wiimote to the left or right while still pointing at the screen. Release A when you move the globe and you will spin it.
