I don't think it is either (perhaps that's why the -insert name- has been operating from here for a long time)joda said:wiiv1.5owners3 said:ok it is ILLEGAL to backup any game you have without the owners consent owner being the publisher so if you had say BULLY Orginal you would have to contact ocksta and ask thier permission to duplicate thier software then if you get the go ahead (no bloody likely) you will then need to contact dendo to ask if you can bypass thier security (NEVER GONNA HAPPEN) so no matter how you dress it up blag all the stories you like once you change bios' and detear the console from running its security checks you are in vilation on copyright laws and its world wide not differing from country to country F.A.C.T or E.L.P.S.A and theres 2 or 3 differant ones aswell for states and Austrailia watch the end of simpsons DVDs and they are ALL mentioned on there...hope this hasnt offened anyone?
Well, on our side of the pacific, it's most perfectly legal to backup, copy, and otherwise do what ever fuck you want with the content you've payed for; that including making a backup copy of whatever reason, be it to protect the original or just for the fun of it. If you say, sell the original, it might be another story, but as long as you still have it, you're allowed to keep backups WITHOUT ASKING THE PUBLISHER FOR PERMISSION. Heck, I would say it's probably not even explicitly illegal here in Scandinavia to give away backups to your friends, as long as it's not for profit.
And as far as laws making it illegal to tamper with security measures like CSS, Wii disc encryption, or whichever ... no no no; not illegal over here ...

I have okami, call of duty and de blob waiting to be played. They're just lying there, waiting. Let me play them, and end their misery. They need to be played, or they'll die. You don't want 3 wii games on your conscience do you?
Amazing work so far anyway.
