Nice!

With every new generation it seems they are getting quicker at cracking the hardware and media. I don't expect it will take long before the Wii is completely cracked and the first games start to appear for download.

If they develop a soft mod or a mod chip that allows the Wii to run copied Gamecube and Wii games then it will definitely be high on my list of purchases.

Same here. Would indeed be great if you can play your already existing GC copies on the Wii. Oz already bought a Wii, did not get much feedback from him though, haven't seen him since 1 week.

Demon, you can already play GC games on the Wii. Unless you mean GC backups? From what i've gathered you can use an action replay disc from the GC to play backups, homebrew too.

By "copies" I don't think he meant retail copies. More, um, copied retail copies or "backups" shall we say

I'm not surprised a game has already been dumped. I should imagine that is the easy part. Let's see them get it running on an actual console and then I will be interested in what they have to offer......

The Wii uses normal sized DVD discs, correct?

If so this will make it a much easier process for the cracking scene to get backups working with the system. The one thing that really stopped many from using backups with the Gamecube was the small custom GC discs. Unless you did a case mod it meant it was impossible to burn backups and run them, unless you had the rare Panasonic Gamecube!
