Developer ports classic Mac OS to Nintendo Wii hardware

A developer using the handle Rairii has gotten classic Mac OS, including versions 7.6 and 9.2.2, to boot on the Nintendo Wii's desktop, after beginning the project on June 22, 2025. The work involved porting OpenBIOS to emulate the Open Firmware environment required by the classic Mac OS 'Trampoline' bootloader, building on Rairii's earlier experience porting Windows NT to PowerPC Mac hardware with similar ArtX-designed chipsets.
