@computerboy: Piracy is a problem. It's a huge fucking problem. Making games is not cheap these days. The money has to be gotten back from somewhere.
The core audience for some fitness game probably can't pirate, so they buy it. The game sells well. Then comes some real game. You probably guess what happens. It's too complicated for fitness people so they don't buy it. And you pirate it. With USB loader it's going to be too easy. Even people that didn't bother with gamma etc. will now pirate games. More people pirating, less real games. I know my Wii isn't a PSP, but with PSP pirating is too easy. You see what happened to it, don't you? My DS has been collecting dust for ages. There's nothing to play on it. Piratings too easy. Wii doesn't get good games every month, but there are a lot of good games for it already, with more coming. If enough people pirate their games, it just isn't sensible making games for wii, other than carnival games mini-game megamix ultra.
@ganon: No. Read what you just linked.
@Master Mo: A lot of people are not pirating cause they rather buy their games than start meddling with +, -, r, rw, booktyping etc. I personally know few like this. And being a small studio doesn't mean they are making wiiware. BTW, the very same guys that don't bother with discs pirate their wiiware and vc. If it would be as easy pirating "full" games, they would. Make your own conclusion.
Thank you for your time.
