I have been seeing torrents popping up for some of the new US WiiWare (but I won't post links) as well as other foreign games. What I am wondering is how do you go about installing them on your system?

I also am curious about this. I assume that they are protected the same as virtual console games, which as far as I know nobody has been able to crack for widespread distribution. If anyone has any info on this I would like to know, too.

I acquainted myself with the WAD loader and now I know how this works! Pretty nifty.

sort of a VC question as well, but can you just pull a VC or WiiWare game onto an SD card from one Wii and use the WAD loader to put it onto another Wii?

Sure, but it would be faster and easier to download the WAD online though.

I have followed all the steps, but when I talk to the guy, the game freezes and I don't get the black screen with numbers.

Can anyone please help me with this?

Sounds like you used the wrong save game file. Check the numbers on your disc and try again.

Yeah I used the twilight hack for USA that ended in 2 (RDZE2?) and it didn't work, but when I switched it out for the one that ended in the 0 (RDZE0?) it worked fine.

tried both the RZDE0 and the RZDE2 and both froze on me. I also have played the game before, I finished it months ago. Everything works just fine except when I start talking to the guy. The game freezes with a loud buzzing sound.
