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();

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;

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.
