str2hax is an exploit for the EULA app on the Wii that does not require an SD card. It targets the vulnerability (CVE-2009-0689) to enable homebrew on a Wii. To use str2hax, a Wii with an internet connection is required. However, the payload can also be hosted locally if internet access is not available.
