^Whoah that was fast! I didnt expect them (if this isnt faked) to crack it for at least another 4-5 months. Of course, I wont be using this though, I love Ninty too much, they deserve every penny they get. :)

The wii needs a massive boost to the amount of games it has.

Most of the people i know want to play their wii but are lacking in new games to play

not much on the horizon either really, well with confirmed dates anyway

its not just that either I know im not the only one when I noticed that playing a normal game on the wii (non-wii sports, wii play) such as farcry is bloody knackering.

You tend to have to keep the remote pointing at the screen, and the constant tiny adjustments means that after 20 minutes of playing the game your bloody knackered! your arms just want to fall off! :D

The modchip may well be real. But I wont be buying one until I can play games from any region.

In fact I wont be buying a PAL Wii until I can play US games on it. Or Ill just go and buy a US Wii.

Either way the treatment Nintendo seem to dish out to us mugs in Europe means I refuse to rely upon their release schedule.
