BrawlStats is a Wii application that will have to be run after a Super Smash Bros. Brawl session. It will store automatically on your SD your results and then you will be able to navigate freely through a clean GUI that will show you a lot of information that Brawl doesn't store (or doesn't show). It also gives different trophies to players that achieve certain records.

It can be like a database of your Brawl matches.

What I need?

  • Homebrew Channel 1.0.7 or later
  • Super Smash Bros. Brawl save data (PAL or NTSC-USA)
  • SD card


Usage

Run BrawlStats for the first time. This will create the needed data on your SD.

Once you have the data on your SD you can play Super Smash Bros. Brawl as long as you want.

After the Brawl session, you must run BrawlStats again. It will ask you if you want to create a new session, answer always YES. And now you will be able to see all the information about that session! :D

From now on, you will have to run BrawlStats after any Brawl session. If you don't follow this rule, next session you create will have the information of the last session plus the previous unsaved one, so remember to run BrawlStats after any session.


Menu & controls

BrawlStats has a simple graphical user interface that we will divide in tabs, and every tab is divided by pages.

Controls:

  • A: next page
  • B: previous page
  • +: next page
  • -: previous page
  • 2: save screenshot to SD
  • HOME: help screen/exit

IOS Reload

BrawlStats v1 uses AHBPROT in order to have access to NAND and read SSBB savegame. However, you can also force an IOS reload. Remove the commment lines (<!-- and -->) and edit the IOS number to use on meta.xml file.

Example for IOS236:

   <arguments>
       <arg>--ios=236</arg>
   </arguments>
