WiiGSC, or Wii Game Shortcut Creator, is an easy to use channel creator for games loaded through USB, allowing for direct access to games like Mario Kart Wii or Super Mario Galaxy from the Wii menu.

The program was previously known as Crap.

User guide

Important notes

Be aware that creating game channels for "A Boy and his Blob" and "Mario Party 9" can cause your Wii to brick, so avoid installing them.

Before using WiiGSC, ensure that your (v)Wii is fully modded, including cIOS and a USB loader of your choice. Additionally, install Priiloader for brick protection (Wii only) and create a NAND backup with BootMii beforehand (Wii only).

How to use

To use WiiGSC, follow these steps:

• Run the program as an administrator.
• Select your ISO/WBFS file or WBFS drive and choose the game for which you want to create a forwarder.
• Choose your USB loader.
• Create the WAD.
• If using Wii U Wii mode, customize the WAD for the vWii with Convert2vWii.
• Install the WAD from the "Wad" folder.

Keep in mind that the Wii Menu only has 48 free slots (excluding disc channels and preloaded channels).
