It would be great to dedicate a show to all the ways someone can hack the wii - twilight hack, wiikey, CycloWiz V2, etc.

Also, for the international viewers, a how to for running emulators after the wii is modded.

Thanks,
Junk

Well, in the US that might be a little hard to get around to legal-wise. Nintendo has enacted a crackdown on the wiikeys so systm doing a spot on it might be a little tricky.

It would be nice to see, yeah, but as Nintendo's been stomping around in their Legal boots lately, probably not possible...

Perhaps a segment on (soft~)modding the original xbox and setting up a media center would be more legit? it's not like Microsoft shows any love for that machine anymore :P

How about the more legal but still fun area of applications people have come up with for the Wiimote? There is an entire upper level special interest electrical engineering design class where students are charged with coming up with practical solutions and systems that interface with it. And its pretty easy to interface with, so the hardest part is coming up with good ideas...
