=== What's the point of this? ===
+
=== v1.1 08/10/2011 ===
It's only a curiosity. I like to see what games I haven't played in a while and how long other games took to complete. I also found it interesting to unravel some of how the Wii stores its messageboard data. If you do most of your stuff through the Homebrew Channel or other non-official channels and don't play many official games then it won't give you very interesting results.
+
* Fixed some of the bugs causing strange results for some people.
 
+
* Added sanity checks to work around the remaining bugs.
=== Can you get it to show the apps loaded through HBC? ===
+
* Added Unicode support.
Unless I've missed something, the HBC does not log play records so there is no way to retrieve this info.
+
* Added ability to log stats to the SD card.

=== I get nonsense stats/jumbled up titles! ===
  −
Yes, this is a known issue for some people. I have now identified the cause of this bug and a fix might eventually come out, however the bug is non-trivial (at least not for me!) and I don't have a lot of free time so please be patient.

  −
=== Why will it not show stats for channels loaded through Preloader or Bootmii? ===
  −
The system menu is bypassed here so the Wii does not log this information on the messageboard; consequently there is no way to get stats for this.
  −
 
  −
=== Can you add the ability to delete playlogs/reset the stats? ===
  −
This involves editing the messageboard, which is not totally understood. Get this wrong and the messageboard (and consequently the system menu) will not load and you have a [[brick]]. Now we have some form of [[Bootmii|brick protection]], someone might want to have a go at this but I have no interest in doing so. Incidentally, deleting messages will not free up any blocks for installing channels; the messageboard is fixed at 20MB.

=== Why is there no support for Japanese Wiis? ===
  −
Mainly because of the total arseache of supporting all the kanji characters. I would quite like to do this though but I've got to get the other bugs out first.
  −
 
  −
=== How about a pie chart? ===
  −
I did think about this but was too lazy. Maybe later.
