revcube Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Well now I am on the verge of modding my Wii so I can play Super Paper Mario. Am definately not going to steal games. But what would work awesome is a Wii Freeloader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blender Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Its funny they didnt make the same statement for the DS.Personally I think its due to SPM bricking some PAL and NSTCJ consoles. I reckon, they will start bricking wiis with software updates.. Obviously nintendo dont want to loose their installed base and are warning a prior. They had no way to stop piracy on the ds... (However, i often wondered why they did not implement something in the ds) Well now I am on the verge of modding my Wii so I can play Super Paper Mario. .

antster1983 Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 Microsoft have been pointing out the obvious for years. Also pointing out the blatantly obvious: British Rail: Don't go to sleep on a railway line. Andrex and San Miguel: Don't wipe your arse with a broken bottle.

blender Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Also pointing out the blatantly obvious: Andrex and San Miguel: Don't wipe your arse with a broken bottle. which raises the point whether its ok to use a bottle if it is intact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kav Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 which raises the point whether its ok to use a bottle if it is intact? Yeah, you wrap a bit of andrex round the neck of the San Miguel bottle and... I'm just gonna stop right there! Ha ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtle Squad Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Anyway, the same thing was said by Sony (I think) back on the PS days. (Mine's chipped though, and plays copies:shock:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Well people have managed to mod the new 'mod-poof' jap Wii's - You've just got to be hardcore about it I presume you don't have to go mental with a soldering iron, just cut the chip cover back a bit with a sharp knife to reveal what's left of the pins and solder as usual.

Teppo Holmqvist Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I presume you don't have to go mental with a soldering iron, just cut the chip cover back a bit with a sharp knife to reveal what's left of the pins and solder as usual. That is probably most challenging modjob I have ever seen. Target area is so goddamn tiny that it is very easy to botch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 They actually opened the component's housing? This probably has such a low succes ratio that it's too much risk to mod the new Wiis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shino Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Hahaha, modding as it is can be a hard job, I can't imagine soldering to a transistor inside that. It looks like they were trying to solder to the chip's legs and accidentally burned of the housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this will stamp out a lot of piracy and make my wii 1.0 worth a lot on ebay like the early firmware psp were for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
