at this point in time yes, but... think about with psp's, what can you do on psp's with custom firmware that u cant on offical firmware. BACKUPS!!! and now with ppl scrubbing the iso, thats making some of them under 2 gigs. next thing we need is someone to create a homebrew that will allow you to boot a wii game off the sd card, or add usb support, connect an external hard drive, and just store all the games on a hdd and use a menu system to boot off that. thus eliminating the drive entirely. with Waninkoko discovery, to me, it seems as though he has the files from the wii's flash. thus meaning that people can work on doing the same as what Dark AleX did for the whole psp scene. use the files from the flash, and modify them the way they need to be modded, so that they can play "backups" without a chip or anything. i see the future of wii modding being where we can customize our wii menus, appearance and sounds and all.... and there will be custom firmware in the future that will allow "backups" to be booted w/out a chip or hardware mod of any kinda.
i for one think this video shows something a few years ahead of its time.
