[QUOTE="mauifrog, post: 4406738, member: 243159"] Sure it is all speculation, but there was no attempt to prevent homebrew or piracy on 3.3k above and beyond what was done for 3.3u/e/j. The korean wii was hackable to second it hit the shelves in korea. All you needed to do was install a modchip, run the twilight hack and update from a 3.x u/e/j game disc, then install HBC and/or region change it. Surely Nintendo was well aware that it would be that simple. They did not even try to prevent it, and they could have prevented it simply by including stub ios of u/e/j ios slots preventing their install, which they did not do. There is no aspect of the korean wii or key that make piracy or homebrew more challenging. Hell when Nintendo updated to 4.3 and disable the ability of TBR on 4.3, they did not even bother to include ios15 with the 4.3k update, making 4.3k the only menu vulnerable to TBR. Possibly they have included ios15 in 4.3k now, but at its release they did not. So Nintendo is clearly more concerned about piracy and homebrew on u/e/j than they are for korea as they neglected to fix the issue. edit- so it took 4 months to hack after release. Release in 4/2008, hacked in 8/2008 via beta1 TPH. edit2- it was probably hackable on release via the pink fish disc. You could have used that to install ios16. Possibly you could have made a swap disc of the pink fish disc, simply replacing one of the useless wads with a HBC wad, then load the good pink fish and swap to the modified pink fish and reset the game, install HBC via wad. Pink Fish was out 1/2008. edit3- possibly Nintendo knew that the korean wii was cheep and would be region changed and sold abroad. Perhaps they put the korean key in with the intention of allowing many many korean wiis to be region changed and exported, just to later release a system menu update disabling them beyond warranty repair requiring the purchase of a new wii. A good method to generate more sales. [/QUOTE]
