yeah many countries outside USA pirate because they get ripped off so easily. On another note, pirating VC games would probably be quite simple (without even modifying your console). When you copy a VC game from an SD card to your Wii, the Wii sends a request to Nintendo HQ asking if you've bought this game. The only thing you'd need to do is have your router forward all those requests to your own personal server, which would then send back the "OK" of course, you would have to apply some packet sniffing in order to work out how the protocol worked, and there'd probably be some form of encryption in the sending (if it's sent over SSL it'd likely be impossible). So depending on how well Nintendo implement this protocol it may be difficult. As for actual games, you'd need a mod chip. I don''t usually chip my consoles as a rule since it voids the warranty, but as soon as there's a mod chip that allows for Wii homebrew (the WiiKey only allows GC homebrew) then I'm all over it. Personally I'm getting sick of Nintendo screwing us over (still no release date for Super Paper Mario) so I wouldn't feel that guilty about pirating some games.
Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!
