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.

 

ah ok thanks, so they can probably make homebrew wii games without having to buy a development kitt from nintendo or to pay a development fee or something
