I don't believe there are any plans to at present, however if homebrew starts to get popular on the Wii I think it might happen down the road.

It would indeed be nice to see a wii scene, i think i checked the domain and someone has already bought it?  huh.gif

I hope it was xantium who thought it would be worth the while to keep it reserved.

Looking at how the progress has currently been on the wii i think we may very well see something along the lines of some custom home brew applications very soon.

Being as i'm in the UK i don't currently have access to a wii but will have soon enough beerchug.gif

I brought this up and that's how these forums came about. I think as ts said, if there's a demand in the future for more sections, it will probably happen. Right now everything is very general, so it's fine to have it all grouped together.

Here here. Don't get me wrong, the Wii forum is nice as it is, but it would be great to have a dedicated section for various areas, just like the 360 and PS3.

You beat me to it. Was about to post this morning but had to run out before I could finish and submit. I think we should have one. If you look at the PS3 forums there isn't much happening there. No case mods or anything of that sort. Mainly people just talking like there has been here.

i had that thought a few days ago then thought, alright, time to post in the suggestions forum.. guess my adult ADD kicked in and i forgot.


games
hacking
general
hardware mods (dounbt there will be enough for its own forum)
wii channels (network)
backups

Yeah but lets be fair, there is more to talk about over at the PS3 section, there are more categorys and more people visit them because its nice and sectioned. In which case anyone browsing the forums will see it right away and probably have a say in something or another.

Plus, we haven't had the wii forum that long so i would be hoping we don't have as many replies right now. Also to be fair this is abit much out of the way, i didn't even know we had a wii forum at all untill not too long ago...

I just really hope Xant thought ahead and bought the wii scene domain as i think someone has bought it, no idea who i just hope it was him.

I'd really like to see this happen, personally i think the overall progress on this so far has been pretty good, weve already seen emulators running on the wii, so this would say to me, more homebrew can be wrote under applications and ran in the same type of method? it would just need to be wrote to utilize more of the wii's available power. Hopefully the wii will really take off in the modding community, it already seems to be doing quite well for itself.

Anyway just my thoughts, would deffinatly be nice to see more support though.

That would be awesome. I haven't been this excited about gaming in a long time. Don't get me wrong, I really like my 360, but when I'm playing LoZ:TP, I'm getting that warm, fuzzy feeling that I did back in the Ocarina of Time days. It only seems fitting that the Wii gets the forum attention that it deserves.

Speaking of case/ hardware mods. As any one modded the Wii in that respect yet?

THIS is the only one I've seen thus far. I'm sure they'll be coming, though.

Not to mention the PS3 forums have been there for over a year, and it has it's own site to attract attention. There isn't really much in the way of hacking/modding sites for Nintendo and I think a wii-scene or nintendo-scene would help fill that void.

...if you build it, they will come.

I agree, the Wii forums would really take off
more people would be able to find them easier and thus bringing in more people to the Wii modding scene, and that would most likely mean that there will be more mods or more advanced mods for the Wii in the future...

We already have 2 mods that are fairly cool:

Mounting more powerful stand alone IR transmitters to the sides of your tv or on the sides of your projection area so that you eliminate the sensor bar and have a better range while the Wii has a better Idea of your screen size

Changing the LEDs in the disk slot, I think it wouls be cool to do some red ones like the NES power light


the first mod doesn't even require you to pull apart your wii

Eh... I like it the way it is.
