Shop

Control the whole channel

When you wish to control the console itself, you utilize wiiShop. It is an important (and necessary) object to instanciate, as it controls the flow of the channel - rebooting, errors, options - alongside handling localization.

var wiiShop = new wiiShop();

Properties (Get)

Property Name	Discussion
wiiShop.errMsg	Returns a localized string for the current error message. TODO: Determine how this is set, and why error code 209658 is handled differently.
wiiShop.errCode	Returns the current error code registered as a string.
wiiShop.title	Returns a localized string of the channel. In English, this is "Wii Shop Channel".
wiiShop.retryBtn	Returns a localized string for the retry button, such as "Try Again" in English.
wiiShop.menuBtn	If launched normally, returns a localized string for "Wii Menu". If launched as a manual viewer, returns a localized string for "Back" .
wiiShop.wiiUMenuBtn	Returns a localized string for "Wii U Menu".
wiiShop.eulaBtn	Returns a localized string for "Proceed".
wiiShop.eulaMsg	Returns a localized paragraph pleading for the user to agree to the Wii Network Services Agreement.
wiiShop.manualBtn	Returns a localized string for "Continue".
wiiShop.connecting	Returns a localized string for "Connecting. Please wait..." This string is extremely important and must be accessed on each page load. Please see Connecting example for more information.
wiiShop.isCompatibleMode	Appears to always return 0, as nothing accesses what it reads from at 0x803607f9. TODO: Verify
wiiShop.launchCode	Returns some variant of a launch code, which is also referenced to check if the channel was launched to be a manual viewer. TODO: Determine possible codes

Connecting Example

It is important that wiiShop.connecting variable is accessed once per page load, as it stops an internal timer. It is additionally important that its value is set to a variable and not cast away, as it being accessed is what cancels the timer.

If the timer is not cancelled, error 209601 is displayed after 100 seconds.

The following code block provides an example of the bare minimum required to prevent an error thrown:

var wiiShop = new wiiShop();
const unused = wiiShop.connecting;

wiiShop.getLogUrl = stringVariable	Sets a log URL to the given string. TODO: where and how is this used otherwise? It seemingly cannot be queried, and nothing accesses the URL throughout runtime.
wiiShop.fadeColor = integerValue;	Sets a color to fade to when exiting from the Mario downloading animation. TODO: Is this correct?

Test Variables (Get/Set)

It's unclear on what these are used for: the channel never utilizes set values throughout operation, nor does the Nintendo-provided Wii Shop Channel. Their values persist unmodified throughout the current channel's launch, making them the numerical equivalent to a cookie, at best. One can assume that they were most likely included for testing purposes with the C++ <-> JS runtime bindings for Opera. Nonetheless, they are included.
