Wii hacking?

[Demon Cleaner]

I tested now Madworld, a very nasty game btw, and it works perfectly without any slowdowns. But as far I only tried PAL games, I don't know if a softmodded Wii can launch NTSC/U or NTSC/J games? As far as I read, I don't think so. But I am currently downloading an NTSC game to test it.

I don't know if it's worth buying yet, perhaps not really, as there are only quite few games I really want, but it just was the right time to buy one, 4 weeks ago a new laptop, 2 weeks ago a new TomTom and now the Wii, I like the useless stuff

Have you also read the part in the guide about ripping games to HDD or SD card? It is possible to rip the game DVDs to an SD card or USB external HDD connected to the Wii and launch and play them from there. You could therefore connect a large external HDD and have all of the Wii games accessible at once from there. It is definitely someone I would want to try.

I didn't try that yet, but I definitely gonna do that, I have to have a look at that ripping guide, do you have a link? That would of course be awesome to launch the games from the external HDD.

EDIT: Hm I played Madworld for an hour now, then came to my first boss fight, and right there, before the fight starts, it froze. Sadly it didn't make one single savegame, so I have to start all over again.
