libWiiPy.title.wad Module

The libWiiPy.title.wad module provides support for handling WAD (Wii Archive Data) files, which is the format used to deliver digital Wii titles. This module allows for extracting the various components for a WAD, as well as properly padding and writing out that data when it has been edited using other modules.
