Double-edged sword, aint it? Nobody wants to buy a Nintendo console till it gets hacked, then once it gets hacked, everyone complains about the shit games coming out.

Nope. For playing emulators. Granted, playing ROMS on emulators a form of playing backups, so I guess you get partial credit.
To my understanding this only loads "backups" and doesn't allow homebrew or system modifications.
We are aware of the method. But due to fact that the last 2 projets they have done (xk3y and 3k3y( being copied by others (wasabi and cobra ODE)
The method will be kept secret i am guessing until the point of release.
You guys talk about playing off backups as if only pirates do it. I buy my games, and I'm constantly having to replace disks because of minor scratches (I have 3D World and it's basically got one extremely thin scratch no longer than a couple of millimeters, won't play).
Until these game manufacturers come up with a way for a legit backup or at least a low cost disc exchange program, I will wholeheartedly support anyone who hacks for the purpose of playing backups.

Of course there are people who will just play their own backups, but 99% of the users interested in such a device will want it for pure piracy.
you don't have to worry we pirates are way more interested in the SDK leak than playing backups

Piracy has never killed any system at all, didn't kill the Wii, PS3, DS, PSP, GBA, original Xbox, PS2, or PS1, but okay. Piracy killing a console is a myth.

There are non piracy reasons for wanting backups. People want to protect their originals. They want all their games in one place, not some on the console and some in the other room on a bookshelf. They want to play imports. I was in the UK but couldn't buy any used games, because no way to play imports right now. They want to be able to backup their save files to their computer. They want to be able to do offline cheating, sometimes cheat codes can make the game more difficult or more fun. These features come with well developed backup loaders.
The hell do you do to your poor disks?
Minor scratches my ass. The only time i've ever had a disk fail was way back with my Super Smash Bros Melee, and that's because there was about half a million scratches on the poor thing from absurd amounts of use and abuse. It takes a hell of a lot to make a disk unreadable, even today with blu-ray disks being rather sensitive. So that's a horrible excuse.
i had to send New Super Mario Brothers Wii U to nintendo because the disc stopped reading. it didn't have any visible scratches but something obviously happened to it since it stopped working. nintendo sent me a new one.
What do you consider a smart tv? My tv is not labeled as a smart tv (no internet or apps), but it has played any video file I have plugged into its usb port.
