WiiTracker: The largest Wii Hardware Tracking Tool on the Web

**twistedsymphony** · September 24th, 2007, 14:34

Nintendo-Scene is pleased to announce that the WiiTracker now has a pool over over 1,000 unique serial numbers that is uses to track Wii hardware data. Not only do we have a massive pool of data to pull from but that data has helped over 80,000 people who have used the search page to determine what is inside their console.

For those of you who don't know what the WiiTracker is: the WiiTracker is a database that contains Wii serial numbers and information about the specific hardware that Wii contains. Through the tracker you can enter a serial number of any Wii console and the system will give you an estimate of what hardware is inside based on similar serial numbers and manufacturing trends. This allows you to know what is inside your Wii without even opening it. In addition to the estimate, the data provides an excellent base for the creation of charts and graphs to map out hardware trends in Wii production.

What a nice way to steal Wii's serial number and register them on nintendo.com as your own!

What good would that do? Give some random guy 3 more months of warranty.

This is a fantastic idea, and has already helped thousands of people estimate the components of their Wii without ever opening it up.
