I wanted to know how to downgradw a wii's firwmare because i updated to 3.3 firmware a few months back. And i found out that with a modchip i can install the homebrew channel without the twilight hack. But i also heard that with 3.3 firmware, i can't install the homebrew channel except with the twilight hack and i don't have an sd card and i don't plan on buying one so how do i downgrade my wii to 3.2 firmware!

It will still work. Just use the file of of the Homwbrew Channels' official site.

EDIT: Opps sorry. I didn't know you want to do it without the TH.

All i have to say is; dont install the homebrew channel if you plan on NOT buying a sd card, because anything and everything will need to be put on the sd card with HBC. PLUS you cannot downgrade a wii just yet you are stuck with 3.3 and i am 100% sure if a downgrade dose come out then you will need a sd crad. Sd cards are so chea now you can get a 4 gb card for like 20$

just keep in mind the wii can only read 2gb SD cards unless something changed...

really? cause i use my digital camera's SD card and it still works perfecto

I'm guessing it's SD and not SDHC?

i can use my digital camera sd card too but i can find the cases that u can use for the sd card that i can fit into the wii. And i don't know how to update through the computer.

And would a backup of twilight princess work too? Instead of buying or renting the game from the store.

yes it would.

Here is what I got and it works great, plus it was cheap. Remember, keep away from High capacity SD cards.
