Polyfilling WSC APIs for functionality

Normally the Wii Shop Channel provides several JS APIs. When opening the site on PC, since these APIs aren't present the site won't function properly. In order to fix this you can install this userscript to mock these APIs and navigate around the site properly. You might need a browser extension like Tampermonkey in order to install a userscript.

Authenticated pages

To access some pages, you need to include special parameters in the URL about your console. Generally, authenticated pages require the following parameters:

• accountId - Your Wii Shop Channel account's ID
• deviceId - Your Wii's device ID (not your serial)
• serialNo - Your Wii's serial number. This can be found on the bottom of your Wii's case.
• token - Your Wii Shop Channel account's "weak token". It's unknown exactly what this is.
• transId - An unknown parameter, only used in some pages
• transType - An unknown parameter, only used in some pages, it should be 3

To get the values for these parameters, you must capture logs from the shop in Dolphin containing them. To do so:

• Enable Dolphin's debugging UI by going into Config > Interface and toggling Enable Debugging UI on.
• Ensure that you have a NAND backup imported into Dolphin from your Wii.
• Open the Wii Shop Channel on Dolphin, ensuring you have the original, unmodified Wii Shop Channel installed.
• As soon as you see the initial "Wii" loading screen, pause the emulation.
• Go into the Code tab within the Debugging UI (you may have to enable it by opening the View menu and toggling on Code) and enter the address 80078610 into the Search Address box.
• Right click the instruction highlighted on the right hand side of the Debugging UI, and select Add function. Right click the instruction again, but select Rename symbol and enter OSReport as the name.
• Open the Symbols menu at the top of the program and select Patch HLE Functions.
• Switch to the Log Configuration tab within the Debugging UI (you may have to enable it like the Code tab) and ensure OSReport HLE is enabled in the list of log types near the bottom of the UI.
• Switch to the Log tab within the Debugging UI (you may have to enable it like the other two) and play the emulation. You should see logs populate in the large black text area. Wait until you load into the shop.
• Once loaded in, look through the logs to find your accountId, deviceId, and token. These values can be found in the various SOAP requests (XML blocks) throughout the logs. Save these somewhere.
• Finally, add the values you found into the URL of your desired authenticated page.

An example of valid authenticated URL structure:
https://oss-auth.shop.wii.com/oss/serv/H_01.jsp?accountId=[Your Account ID]&deviceId=[Your Device ID]&serialNo=[Your serial]&token=[Your weak token]
https://oss-auth.shop.wii.com/oss/serv/H_04.jsp?accountId=[Your Account ID]&deviceId=[Your Device ID]&serialNo=[Your serial]&token=[Your weak token]&transId=[Your transaction id]
