Wii USB Mass storage device demo

[emwearz]

svpe on #wiidev released a USB Mass storage device demo yesterday which lists files and folders on external USB devices. This is something that would be hugely beneficial to the Wii Scene especially with Nintendo's reluctance to release any kind of official USB device for the Wii.

 

The demo is still in the early stages so no download link is available but the source code has been posted on the WiiBrew wiki so if you fancy having a mess around with it then you can.

 

A USB Mass storage device file/folder lister demo has been released on the #wiidev channel by svpe, the same person who made the first SD elfloader. It is still in testing stages and the code needs to be cleaned up, so no download link will be provided here. It is compatible with anything that adheres to the USB Mass Storage Device specification and FAT16, including USB memory sticks, flash drives, certain phones/MP3 Players, some FAT-formatted USB Hard Drives and even single-slot card readers. When a cleaned-up version is released it will be posted here.

If the Wii got external HDD support via USB, that would just be utterly awesome.
