WiiMU is a PoC "Channel Launcher" app for the Wii. It eventually aims to completely replace the System Menu in functionality. At the moment it is quite far from that goal, but it does have a start.
It currently:
Please note that at the moment it DOES NOT REPLACE ANY SYSTEM FILES! It may eventually get to that point, but currently it is far from it.
Changes:
It currently:
- Lists all installed Channels. (Does not include those with only a ticket)
- Allows selection of the Channel to load.
- Allows launching of a disc.
- Allows return to loader.
- Allows return to real System Menu.
- Has a NAND Dumper. Thanks to Redbird who released YaWnD, I was able to add this to the release. This is NOT my code, it is Redbirds.
- Allows you to look at all save files on your Wii. Copying does not work yet.
- Allows you to look at the configuration settings from your Wii.
- Has a Main menu. Contains Launch Disc, Launch a channel, dump NAND, return to Wii Menu, browse save files, look at configurations, and return to Loader.
Please note that at the moment it DOES NOT REPLACE ANY SYSTEM FILES! It may eventually get to that point, but currently it is far from it.
Changes:
* Fixes a bug in which certain users couldn't get the list of channels.
* Adds save file browsing. Copying does not work yet.
* Adds a configuration viewer. Will eventually allow changing.
* Adds launching a disc.

There are some slight problems with 0.1a3. First, on the channel list, you may get two listings of a channel. Choose the first one. Second, the elf file is named WiiMU.elf. You must rename it to boot.elf for it to work. These issues have already been brought to attention and will be fixed in a4

Music player for the Wii. It has a nice interface and is skinnable. It plays mp3, ogg and other formats but does not work with wma, aac or flac. It is a native Wii application (no Wii Linux) with the intent of being a multi-source media player on the Wii.
DragonMedia Player will pick up files anywhere on your SD card, and plays sequentially once a file has started. Simply install into the HBC by copying the dmp folder in the zip file to /apps/ and run the program. Do not rename the folder as DragonMedia Player expects things to be in the correct order to function. For the changelog, please look inside either the source or the binary zip file.

S2U2 (Slide2Unlock2) is a simple lock/unlock application which has the iPhone style slide unlocking. It can be used as a screensaver while you don't use your device. And it's has a CallerID function.
Although S2U2 is now called v1.13, it doesn't mean it can be run perfectly on your device. Thanks to different devices produced by different vendors. So, please test it before use it everyday, especially the CallerID function.

AmplituDS is based on the gameplay of Amplitude for the PlayStation 2.

How to play?
Thanks to http://www.nintendomax.com for the news.

How to play?
You are in control of the ship. You can move it left and right, to let it hover over another lane. In the picture above, for instance, the lanes are coloured red, orange and blue.
When hovering over one of these lanes, you will notice dots on them. On the blue lane for example, you see them being yellow. Those dots are actually targets, and your goal is to shoot them all without missing one. Sounds easy enough, no? The catch is that the targets are aligned to either be on the left side of a lane, in the middle of a lane, or on the right side of a lane. On the blue lane in this picture, you can clearly see the pattern being [ left, right, left ] each time. You need to hit the right buttons in order to be able to shoot down the targets.
The targets are placed on the rhythm of the music. That should make things a bit easier for you. The music of a lane will only play if you're shooting down all the targets in the right way (ie: not missing one). If you succeed to do that for a while, the lane blows up and the music associated with that lane will play on. For the red lane, that music is usually the drums section. After having shot down a lane, I suggest going to try an other available lane as soon as possible, to rack up your score. Each consecutively succesful destroying of a lane not only gives you points for all the targets you hit, but also increases the multiplier, making your score even higher!
Now, there are also powerups available in the game. These are: autoblaster, freestyle and scoredoubler. Autoblaster destroys an entire lane for you. If you failed a lane, and use the autoblaster to destroy it anyway, you'll get your old multiplier back (yay!). Freestyle is you scratching on the touch-screen to get points and creating a nice melody yourself. Scoredoubler is exactly what you'd expect it to be; it doubles the scores you'd otherwise receive for a short time.
That's it. If you want to know more about the concept, please read FAQs and such on the game on which AmplituDS was based on. That should help out. Maybe one day, I'll put a quick video of this game online as tutorial.

There are a bunch of high quality prices, head over and check the rules. Having an entry is actually more "spirit" than fame - this would be more in the sense of homebrew scene, but anyway... if there are nice goodies to win why not!
