Wiimmfi is a closed-source replacement for the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection servers. It began development in early 2014 before the servers were fully shuttered, and is the largest currently extant replacement server. It primarily serves an audience of Mario Kart Wii players, from which it attracts hundreds of players per day.

WiiLink is an alternative services provider for the Wii, originally founded in 2020. Its original purpose was to provide revived WiiConnect24 channels exclusive to Japan, however has since greatly expanded into other services such as the internationally available channels and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

In late 2023, RiiConnect24, an alternative services provider founded in 2015, merged with WiiLink, where WiiLink would adopt its infrastructure and current services. Today, WiiLink offers all of the services that were previously offered by both separate entities and is the singular provider for WiiConnect24 services after its shutdown in 2013. Additionally, it provides support for Animal Crossing: City Folk DLC, RSS feeds via RSSMii, and YouTube playback on the Wii via RiiTube.

== WiiConnect24 ==
WiiLink has support for most WiiConnect24 services, although some channels may not have completely restored support comparable to before the shutdown date. The following are all services that are supported as of the time of writing:

=== International Services ===

* [https://www.wiilink24.com/services/miicontest/ Check Mii Out Channel]

WiiLink WFC is an open-source replacement for the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection servers that began development in late 2023 to serve as an alternative to Wiimmfi, another replacement for the defunct servers. It does not have as large of a userbase, but is in rapid development. Installation instructions can be found on its website.

{{warning|text=If you get an unrecovered read error, ensure that the disc you are attempting to dump is clean and can be properly read by the console. Even though you may be able to play the game disc normally, you may still get this error. If the error persists, try to dump another disc and see if the same error happens.}}
