LOL @ coolbho3000 for showing a picture of mynintendo / nintendo club, with games HE registered.
Plus i agree with ricdanger. Dont everyone remembered what Nintendo said? The Games you download are only kept in YOUR Wii, not on their servers... so if your Wii would be busted, you had to notify them about the games you downloaded, so they could confirm it when you shipped your wii.
Plus.. was it me, or was coolbho3000 that said whoever played SSBB (NTSC-J) with a PAL console or whatever would be banned FOREVER from online gaming with the Wii?
hmmm....
1. The Opera Browser/other channels showed up automatically in my Mynintendo account upon downloading. How's that for "only kept in YOUR Wii?"
2. It was you.
It shows up only if you have linked your Nintendo account to your shop channel.
If you don't, Nintendo does not keep a record. You can see that by just formating the console, or change the language, and then try to get the games you previously bought.
If you didn't link the account, you will not be able to download the games.
As I said, Nintendo could already start banning persons for playing pirated games, by detecting #001 erros, partial bricks, different region disks, bar codes, you name it.
And we are not talking about cheap VC games that were build years ago, that didn't took a lot of time for Nintendo to put them online. We are talking about current DVD games that cost alot money to develop for the present system.
They could ban cheaters on MOH2, with modified ammo and life.
Even tho, they didn't banned anyone, let alone brick the consoles.
This really is getting more and more ridiculous. Everyone was playing backups, using freeloaders, patching regions, and they never worried. Now, with VC games, everyone is freaking out.
The only damage this VC games issue can have is to force Nintendo to fix security holes in the system sooner. And that can prevent custom firmwares, downgrades or homebrew.
But guess what: Nintendo already knew about these holes, given that homebrew channels were already spread. Do you think that Nintendo would not figure out the holes and fix them, even if VC games were not pirated? Yeah, right... Only if they couldn't fix them.
Stop spreading FUD.
