can anyone explain me what i just saw in the video, as my english isnt that great.
can downloaded games be played on wii without a mod chip or can gamecube games be played with the wii remote or what iis happening there?

I believe that they demonstrated that they're able to run unsigned code (or homebrew applications) on the Wii while taking full advantage of the Wii hardware; previously they were only able to run unsigned code on the Wii while it thought it was a Gamecube. In order to do this you still need to modify the system which (recently) became far too hard for most people.
