ShowMiiWads is a 'Wad File Manager' for Windows. It displays information about wad files, edits them, gives a preview of the Banner and Icon and more. New since Version 1.0 is the included NAND Backup Browser 'ShowMiiNand' which displays all titles installed in your NAND Backup (No BootMii Backups!). If i recall well, softmoding is not enought if you wana use a X region wad game (virtual console) into a Y region wii. It won't work directly. I wanted to do that with fews games but you must do some modifiction with the wad or whatever. I can't remember it very well. Wii U Virtual Console titles (Japan) Edit Talk The Virtual Console is service accessed via the Wii U eShop to play games from the older systems similar to the Wii 's and 3DS. The service supports titles from the Famicom, Super Famicom, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, MSX, PC-Engine, Nintendo DS, and Wii.

Due to some people stating this as a piracy tool, I just wanted to clarify that I'm all against piracy and this tool was never intended to be used for piracy!
