I guess that's why my post was deleted, didn't realise that rule existed.

We can't just simply assume that he's homebrewed his Wii for illegal purposes. There are a number of rather nice applications available to play through homebrew; none of which are illegal at all. Although a majority of the people homebrew their Wii's in order for emulators and to play backup games, we cannot assume just yet that he has done this for the above reason.

There's some cool third party legal applications and uses for it, but I never had the urge to do it myself.

I have it; used it to run GeckoOS to run imports, but now that I have a Japanese Wii I only run Midway Arcade Treasures volume 1 through it (Volume 2 didn't work, so I just eBay'ed it). I have so many VC, WiiWare and disc titles that using it for anything else has little appeal for me. If I ever need to ship the thing off for repair again I'm deleting it to avoid the surcharge; if Nintendo removes it in an update I'm not looking back...

Thou shalt not talk about homebrew, piracy, or warez.

Homebrew and piracy are not the same. As long as you aren't pirating, good for you. Nintendo really shouldn't have a problem with it. They do, but whatever.

Homebrew chan is awesome. I only use it to play Import games, but it is worth it. I also think all the naysayers afraid of bricking and so forth are overreacting. It is like a 1% chance of bricking through use/install of the Homebrew chan. The only people who get bricked, are pirate idiots, who wanna hack and do other crazy stuff. For the most part, they deserve it, but hey, more power to them for at least trying.

Topic creator, congratulations, welcome to freedom!
