They're "reviving and improving upon different channels on the Nintendo Wii"[3]

WiiLink originally only focused on Wii no ma. But ever since they merged with BetterConnect24 and RiiConnect24, they now focus on WiiConnect24 enabled channels in general, instead of just region-exclusive ones.[1]

History[1]

[edit]

WiiLink was originally founded by Dogmander, Marko and Auto1lija in April 2020 as "Wii No Ma development" which they then renamed to "Rii no Ma" with only one goal, reconstructing Wii no ma, However, in September 2020 after merging with BetterConnect24 and restructuring themselves, they became WiiLink24 in September 2020. Later, in May 19th, 2021, they dropped the "24" from their name (which was probably a reference to WiiConnect24's name also ending in 24), and rebranded to simply "WiiLink", and since 2023, they have merged with RiiConnect24[5]
