Homebrew Nintendo Wii and DS WiFi Communication Server!!

You thought Nintend could end this? http://www.engadget.com/2014/05/20/unof ... ii-server/

Nintendo may have pulled the plug on internet multiplayer services for the DS and Wii, but that doesn't mean that you'll be stuck playing their games offline from here on out. Enterprising fans have launched an unofficial Wi-Fi Connection server that lets matchmaking and other core services work (almost) the way they did before the cutoff. In many cases, it's relatively easy to set things up. The DS usually works just by changing the handheld's connection settings; Wii owners, meanwhile, have to run some software from an SD card for the magic to happen.

Having said this, the solution is far from flawless. The developers have only tested a handful of titles so far, and a few releases (including Mario Kart DS) need some modified device firmware to fully support online play. There's also the matter of scale: enthusiasts just aren't going to replicate Nintendo's capacity, so don't be surprised if the server melts under a heavy load. If you're absolutely determined to play Metroid Prime Hunters or Endless Ocean with your internet buddies, though, this may be your best bet.

Somehow there is a wifi program called wiimmfi that you install to your wii!

IMPORTENT THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL

"It is 100% legit. It was created by Wiimm and Lesarette, so give them all your love c: also, if you want to get this the easy way (for MKWII at least), Download the CTGP-R channel and install the latest update. It can NOT do any damage to your wii whatsoever, and it's practically identical to Nintendo WFC.

It is so far! The motors run and Mario Kart - server waits for your use!


On May 20, the official Mario Kart Wii servers are shut down and many internet sites already hosting a Mario Kart Wii farewell race. However, it is with us again in a different way. The forum users Wiimm and Leseratte who freed after two months of hard development and many tests your Mario Kart Wii Custom server to the public.
This means that you can continue to play Mario Kart Wii online.

Yeah I heard about this a while ago and registered my friend code for a couple of games. I think it's really cool and exciting that people cared enough about these games to make their own server. It's really impressive.
