The disc was originally discovered through an image posted online (which also showed the DiscUpdate Disc), and was soon revealed to be for sale on GameDealDaily.

Disc information

Update partition

The disc contains a mysteriously corrupted update partition, but a clean data partition containing the usual Wii disc files (apploader, FST, main.dol, etc.) and a files/ folder containing a viewer/ folder containing the WAD that the disc's main.dol installs.

Disc behavior

The disc checks the free NAND capacity and NAND integrity, then installs the HCGE.wad file in the "viewer" directory to the NAND; if installation is successful, it then launches the installed title. If installation is unsuccessful, one of the below error screens are displayed. Note that the "viewer" directory is also the standard directory for Nmenu operations, indicating that the program on this disc may be related to Nmenu. "viewer.wad" is also the name of a BroadOn format WAD found on RVL_DIAG, containing NDEV Menu 1.00.
