Downloading regular programs on my Wii

Post by redgroupclan »

Posting from my Wii. Would downloading programs like Java & Flash on my Wii be OK? I'd like to be able to play Internet games.

You can't download either Java or Flash to your Wii, the only Flah you can have is the one that comes with the Opera browser. If it doesn't work try to re-install the browser if possible.

I do believe if you copy the Flash folder from your computer onto a removable hard drive you can plug that into the back of the Wii and it should run from there...although many internet games do not support Wii.

Unless the Wii runs either Windows, a Linux distro, or Mac OS, then that method will most likely result in critical mission failure.
