WiiWare - Legal Homebrew Coming to Nintendo Wii

This is awesome great for nintendo to do this.

Yes that chinese video playing automatically is really ANNOYING!!!

You need to see this from the right point of view, the people being aimed by these efforts are small studios and independent developers, that cannot afford the development and publishing costs required for a commercial game production. Not really the renegade developer that wants to dabble into homebrew, sure he can do it, but the level is more professional than regular homebrewing. You can creative innovative things with low budgets (not free), and have at your disposal a worldwide distribution service.
The homebrew scene will not die, and exploits will continue to be searched. Since there are many types of development that nintendo would never allow to bo distrubuted thru their channels, either because of quality, morals, or legal issues.
So stop daydreaming and get cracking on either wii games, or wii exploits ideas

??? why were people even bringing up the notion that this impacts PSP homebrew in any way ???

Will still be crappy graphics involved though.....Next gen machine with sub standard graphics

Bah! I can't wait =3 I've never had enough money or experience to try homebrewing so it looks like this is the way for me ^^

This is what i hate about people's thoughts on the wii.
The graphics are BETTER THAN PS2!
That is NOT "sub standard" graphics!
The Wii is more powerful than the PS2... Everyone who has one knows this.
You probably only watch low-quality youtube video's of the wii and think that's as good as the graphics are.

PLEASE stop saying the Wii has bad graphics people!

I agree with what people have said about it not being as good because they are giving it to us. Also doesn't anyone else find it tired that Nintendo wants to include tha name wii in everything or they want to spell every accessory, game, and program with ii? Thats just ticking me off.

Also, is it just me, or is that damn Chinese video on the main page that automatically plays itself whenever I visit incredibly annoying?

I agree so much. Especially now that it is at the bottom and I have to scroll all the way down just to shut it off.


Edit: And one more thing. The Wii's graphics suck so Wiiware will suck as well.

Lets see gamecube was better hardware wise than the ps2 and the wii is a turbocharged version of it which means the wii doesn't have awful graphics. It could be that alot of people have LCD TV's but only perform at it's best when iin 720P but the wii only does 480p unlike the 360 or ps3 so it's going to look awful at those tv's.

Seen it on a CRT HDTV which CRT's don't have to worry about native resolution so it does look pretty good.
Then again it was only Zelda Twilight Princess that I've seen.
