no way of getting around it, so far the only confirmed models with this is the black consoles on sale in japan, but i imagine all new drives have it fixed now
you can however still load from USB
so just do a full hack as you would on a normal Wii, attempt to load via DVD with NeoGamma for example, if it fails then you can still load via USB, which IMO is better anyway

If that is the case and your new Wii can't read DVDs, you'd be best running your backups with any one of the USB loaders you wish to use
Yeah but I'd only be abe to get an external HDD in about 1 month, so I could use a couple of DVDs for some games in the emantime...I'm glad to know that the only confirmed models are the black ones and I will be checking soon enough, I'll let you guys know if it works fr anyone tht might care
Every Wii being sold now has the "D3-2" drive, which will never be able to use any disc other than retail Wii games. (Well, for a long time at the very least.)
If you really insist on disc loading, you could buy an old Wii DVD drive.

People who can't afford external HDs, also people who can't DL games (Some of my friends whose wiis I've hacked have Comcast) and rely on other people to give them burned discs.

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs

I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G. -

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
