Scratch Everywhere! for Nintendo Wii is a homebrew C++ runtime that brings most Scratch 3 projects to the Wii console, letting users experience visual coding creations on real hardware. It is tailored to run efficiently on Wii, supporting custom controls and project features for a range of Scratch games and animations.

Features

• Runs standard and TurboWarp-modified Scratch 3 projects on Wii hardware.
• Mouse input can be controlled via the Wii Remote and Sensor Bar for point-and-click interaction.
• Supports MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and WAV audio formats; streamed audio used for background tracks, though only one “Streamed Sound” at a time.
• Special Scratch Everywhere!-exclusive blocks provide unique project enhancements.
• Adjustable framerate if configured via TurboWarp during project export.

Limitations

• Only the first connected controller is supported for project interaction.
• Pen and music extensions, cloud variables (not yet supported, but planned), and several Scratch blocks (say/think, color, sound effects, most costume effects) are currently unavailable.
• If running Wii on PAL region, 50Hz display mode is required.
• Large images, extensive blocks, and many clones can cause slow performance or crashes due to hardware memory constraints.

Installation

• Download scratch-wii.zip from the Releases page.
• Unzip and place the apps folder inside the root of your SD card.
• Put Scratch projects into sdcard:/apps/scratch-wii/.
• Launch the app from Homebrew Channel on the Wii.
