According to Team Twiizer, the firmware to stop this was pushed out back in March, but Nintendo still have not updated the system menu (or any games) to utilise the latest firmware.

 This brings the question, what is Nintendo waiting for? Given that there have been numerous chances to push out updated firmware (MKWii, WiiFit, WiiWare), why would they have given them 2 months to get this up and running, rather than stopping them beforehand, especially since WiiWare games can be pirated only because they haven't updated the system menu. 

Wow, if anyone is worried about this leading to piracy in the next week, they need to actually take a look at what an N64 rom looks like on this. It's horrible. i nearly got physically nauseous just watching the textures run rampant...

Also, it's entirely possible that nintendo is looking at this as raising a new development pool. The homebrew community is certainly doing more for Wii than the developers of Ninja Breadman.

Theres also XBMC that is currently being ported to the Wii via the Homebrew channel


I believe its called something like Miidia, not a direct port though, but a good enough one...

with this i can pretty much throw away my Xbox1 :D
