it is not just about chip mods mate. Its just about legal modifications to the wii which includes case mods and chips.
Hopes that clears it up for some of you guys

I wasn't sure if this was exclusive to 'chip' mods or if it included case mods. I'm not a fan of naughty things but am a huge fan of case mods!

I'm currently working on fitting a game cube into a Darth Vader helmet as well as making a Nintendo 'legacy' gaming cabinet.

It WILL encourage MORE illegal activity, meaning in the end we do have more spam, and as usual it makes us look like we give in, support, and embrace pirated games.

so have you all decided its not going to happen ? even though the votes show most people want it ?

i vote no, same reason with jo.



Oh dear, copy me, and not tell me haha. Damn MSN...

I think it's good to have it, but at the same time, I don't want some new generation of users thinking that this website is a pirating website. I voted yes, and if it does win and there is a dedicated discussion, believe me, it will be extremely strict, and the first sign of it being abused, it will probably be deleted.

sharpie92 said: I came up with this idea and you are not allowed to talk about anything ILLEGAL!! It is purely a help guide for people not sure about their modded wiis. We will not talk about burning games or ripping off companies by making anything illegal or anything like that.

Remember modding your wii to bybass region coding is LEGAL in Australia and its the burning of games or getting things for free when they arent free is what is illegal.

This is purely just to un clatter the forums and it is easier to locate threads so threads arent duplicated and it is easier to find info.

Dont forget the ADMINS will pounce on you if you do talk about anything or suggest anything illegal

those are the current rules that we all follow

Okay folks, heres the low-down
Admins are throwing up A POSSIBILITY of adding a subforum for console modification.
quote - POSSIBILITY
This is just allowing people to search throughout the fourm (using the sidebar) for threads dedicated to talk of Modification.
I remind you, MyWii's rules and regulations still apply for this thread (if made) that states no talking of Roms or illegal endorsement of products or websites/medium.
Go nuts..

PS
Just to let you all know, these polls are used to get members IDEAS and viewpoint on subjects and issues the "admins" are discussing. Even if we get 100% saying yes, that doesn't mean it will happen. It just means that it will go onto the next step of asking roy.
Think of it like a BILL
were discussing the possibility of the Bill, and if it passes the council, it goes onto the "court" for the final say.
