they might have too much time on their hands but I mean the end results are amazing, this is what I am greeted with now when I turn on my wii

see that 1/16 in the corner heh, that refers to pages of sets of 10 games :D it is just far too good a system to not want to use it, all on a tiny harddrive sitting on top of the wii which is pretty much silent while playing games too compared to the wiis disk drive that kinda loves to grind and whine while playing games.

Just get yourself a usb harddrive that can be formatted to fat32 and a handful of programs and you're away with it, you need to use the wii itself to read actual wii disks onto the drive to install them, but if you get your hands on wii copied disks or isos from the net you can just transfer the files right onto the drive and the program gets all the info covers images everything you need and just yeah.... too easy to have a games collection installed on the wii considering the price of good big harddrives is so cheap and this is just too cool a hack.

Bold: Nice, like what you done with it. Has a bit of a Playstation-ey feel to it, but it's better than what it is! 160 games is impressive though!

Italic: This would be the only type of 'digital distribution' I'd get into (it's not really, but I don't know what else to call it). I will never give up my retail discs/cartridges, but the ability to copy them to a hard drive for easy access would be pretty awesome.
