    Yeah it’s usualy how they work. At some point you could do it with a modified custom map for Smash Bros. IIRC before that another hack used that Tales of Symphonia Wii sequel everyone has forgotten ever existed.

    On Wii U, they found a way to execute code from a vulnerability in the web browser, so that’s convenient. Just go to the right website and you can launch your homebrew installer that will replace the useless “Health and Safety” app.

    There was a time you needed to sacrifice a legitimately acquired DS game on the Wii U (Brain Training DS was a popular choice, because it was free at one point. And most people don’t care about being able to play that, especially on a home console).
