I think they've done this with the WIi? I think they've bricked mine the day I had it lol
They didn't have that ability at the time, if your wii bricked (in my experience) its because you installed bootmii over boot2 and didn't have a gamecube controller to control the device on that interface, leading you to believe it was a brick. I did that a few times back in the day.
Buggy code from Waninkoko bricked a lot of Wiis and PS3s back in the day. So, you could have followed the mod directions exactly and still bricked.
I don't think so as the Wii was considered unbackable.
The Wii's security systems are actually pretty tight. Nintendo made the mistake of assuming that their code had no security issues. (I don't think defense in depth was a thing yet)
Sorry but no, you bricked your Wii.
