A bad day for Nintendo is here, and one I am sure that they knew would be upon them. The first step of hacking and pirating games from the Wii has happened. Yes the first Wii ISO dump is here, and unlike the rest of the dumps this one is real!
The game which makes History as the first downloadable ISO for the Wii is Red Steel. The game has been ripped by the very large pirate group Paradox. At current nothing can be done with the ISO however it is the first step to allowing people to pirate games illegal for the Wii, and this will no doubt worry Nintendo. They would of expected it to get pirated however for the console 1 month after release is going to damage possible profit from games. Unlike the GameCube the Nintendo Wii does not use a strange format and any CD burner with a bit of tweaking will be able to burn CDs, we should expect for playable rips within a few weeks.
Some internet users are concerned that due to piracy this console could go the same way as the Dreamcast (Sega’s doomed console), however it is predicted that the console sales will go strong even with piracy. It is worth noting that piracy of the console both hurts the profits of Nintendo, which results in a smaller chance of a Wii 2, and discourages game creators from making games for the console. At current the Playstation 3 has yet to be cracked however I am sure you can expect it soon.

Hey brosef, I can tell your serious by your use of capital letters.
Um, Cubeboy101, your post is the only useless text on this page. If you want people to take you seriously, first learn how to write, and secondly dont use caps. That post makes you look like a kid with anger issues. If you think they wont find a way to break the Wii, you are wrong. Pretty much every console can, and will, be cracked. The above report is a statement of the fact that a “Wii game has been ripped”, like the header sais, and if you read the whole report i am sure you noticed the final line; “At current the Playstation 3 has yet to be cracked however I am sure you can expect it soon.”. The writer does not deny in any way that the PS3 will be cracked and therefor he/she does not take any “sides”, or look like a “Sony fanboy” like you imply.
