What is "having the cut legs" ? Some kind of harder way to mod the Wii?

anyway, they said that in maybe a month there may be something new and that i should check again. my question is is there anyway to play backups without the need of the chip , such as a sd card + action replay thingy ?

thanks for any advice, i hope my warning helps those with new wii's reading this now.
I find it funny how everyone refers to their copied discs as backups. 99% of you don't have the original disc laying around, therefore it is not a backup.

Well do you want them to come out and say that they are illegally downloading them? If they did that the thread would just be closed anyway.

Look at the pic I posted earlier. Normally they would just have to solder the points like they did there, but in that pic with the cut legs they have to bridge the legs too. So yes, it was just a way that Nintendo tried to stop modding, but it wasn't very successful.

Someone backed them up at some point. So technically, they're still backups, of an original game.

It will work if you got the one with the DVD writer drive.

I told you that you should have waited to get yours, new Core 2 Duo ones just came out. [/offtopic]

I'm afraid that if I mod my Wii, I won't be able to get updates or stuff like that.

You will, Nintendo has no way of detecting a modchip.

Yup. Be honest. Stop trying to sidestep the issue and pretend that you are actually making backups.

But then the thread would be deleted because it is against the rules to discuss illegal stuff.
