TIL you used to be able to order takeout from your Wii and someone made that channel work again in 2022 youtu.be/TJU2b5oh7bI

@noiob when i first heard about this wii channel ages ago i so so wanted to do this

i did not know this was possible today (with what i assume is riiconnect24)

i'm so going to do this if i have the spare cash for it lmfao

@noiob @EeveeEuphoria delivery services like Deliveroo and Just Eat definitely do have some kind of API for developers so it's probably not impossible

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria I've found the software but no guide on how to set it up

@noiob @EeveeEuphoria I used it when I was at Evoke in cologne last year! Was quite reliable for 2am pizza

@noiob @EeveeEuphoria Lieferando seems to be the German version of Just Eat

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria yeah it is but I'm not sure they have the same API everywhere

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria well rip I can't get my Wii online with my new router

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria are you sure? someone at the local CCCAC told me it needed a specific device id

@noiob @EeveeEuphoria idk I just ordered a random one off Amazon and it worked

@noiob @Violet i have a ethernet adapter that works for the switch, and that worked on my wii as well

i had to do that because it also didn't like my router, and just shared my internet from my laptop to the wii

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria it's mentioned in the reddit post I linked lol
I got an original one on eBay, it wasn't too expensive so I'll just consider it a collectible as well

@Violet @EeveeEuphoria (also the person who told me about the device ID wants to know it to be able to reprogram any cheap adapter)
