The basic file for a WiiWare or VC title is .WAD. WADs actually represent channels, so channels like Everybody Votes and Check Mii Out can also be downloaded and installed as WAD files.

The WAD installer is an ELF, but it can be run either by the Homebrew Channel or the Twilight Hack. And sorry for the confusing description earlier, but there's really no simple way to describe how to run ELFs in the Homebrew Channel.
