So wait... If it's just a rom with HTML, is the supposed encryption for it to work only on one system in the HTML? Or am I wrong for even thinking that VC games are encrypted to only work on the Wii that downloads them.

I've been out of the Wii scene for a while. O.O

They said every rom has a unique encryption key, that works only with the Wii you bought it with. You can even backup them to you SD card throught the Wii Channels backup menu ^^

Extract 00000004.app, and then extract the eZTSystemEU.arc, and take a look at the eZTSystemENUK.zsd file in a hex editor. Scroll to the very bottom to read a few amusing words, at least to be found in a Nintendo file.

It's nothing really great, but here's the hex from the end of the file. Paste it in a hex editor if you wish, the ASCII will show up as it was in the file. Funny how something like that would be in a VC title lol.

So this means we can play ALL Nintendo 64 games on full speed without any graphical glitch?!

K, now THAT would be worth getting a Wii for....

I read all these posts about getting any game to work through VC but something bugs me about how the Virtual Console works because I've been thinking of how the Wii can run all these games with very minor difference to the real thing. When that DKC2 VC rom content was extracted, did it only contain the rom and the help files or did it also contain any other files? What I thought about how VC worked was not by having data about the VC emulator stored in the Wii but the VC games themselves with specific coding for each game to optimize the performance and quality of the game itself. If not, then the Wii would have the basic data about the VC emulator and the games having specific settings for optimisation but I can't really believe that as that would have required a Wii update each time a new system is introduced to the library which has never happened. If what I said was the case however, then I can't see the possibility of getting any game to work unless we understood how the VC emulator itself worked and how to tweak it for optimal performance in each game (I'm mostly thinking about N64 ones). Perhaps one of the reasons why we never saw rumble in N64 games could be due to the limitations in the Wii hardware as it may have struggled on the games which would be CPU heavy.

Ah crap now we lose the twlight hack... whats even the point of this?
Explain to me how we would lose the twilight hack and also how they can patch it, I'm pretty sure it can't be patched as easily as the trucha signer. One point about this is to show the progress of Wii hacking and let us know the possibilities of what we could do with VC in the future.

I dont think that that's in the VC title.. I just "translated" it to ascii... and i doubt nintendo would write that...
