How to launch a Wii Channel or game from the SD Card Menu
1. Insert an SD Card into the SD Card slot on the front of the Wii console. Push it firmly into the slot until it clicks into place. (image)
2. Select the SD Card Menu icon from the Wii Menu to see the contents of the SD Card. The SD Card Menu icon is located in the bottom-left corner next to the “Wii” icon on the main Wii Menu. If an SD Card is not inserted, you will receive the error message, “Nothing is Inserted in the SD Card Slot.”
3. Select an item from the list of available games or Wii Channels and press the A Button to open the Start screen for that item.
4. Select “Start” to run the game or Wii Channel.

Akihiro Hino displayed a list of games that Level 5 have released including Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. Later, Hiro shared news in a Q&A session that he wishes to see all of the Layton games in North America and Europe and that localization is being done on Diabolic Box.

– Fragility is the main idea to tell. It’s in Nyx, and she needs player’s help.
– 20K downloads will be a fine number to cover game’s development costs.
– Focus on finishing Icarian. They’re open to sequels or bigger Icarian games with old ideas.
– First video in below link is Steven Gutheinz’s music: 3 samples
– Second video in link is In-game footage, you may already have this.
– “Family” aids: aside from the 4 guys at Over the Top games, people around them tried the game. Nyx voice is from one of the member’s girlfriend. Animations refined by another friend. Free physics system.
– One day gameplay: as the night nears, the end approaches.
– They hope Nintendo helps them to get to the Japanese market, same as with World of Goo. They already have the game localized into 6 languages for Eur/US markets.
