+{{About|the software that loads [[MIOS]]|the [[vWii]] titles known as BC|Apploader}}
'''BC''' (short for Backwards Compatibility) is a bootloader similar to [[boot1]]. It is responsible for lowering the [[Hardware/Broadway|Broadway]]'s clock speed, then verifying and loading [[boot2]], which will load [[MIOS]] after it detects the lowered clock speed. It is run when a GameCube game is launched from the [[Disc Channel]]. It is unknown why Nintendo did not simply place all of the GameCube compatibility code in MIOS.
