I asked this question in another topic, but got no answer, so here goes >.<
Okay, so whenever someone asks about playing backups on wii without a modchip, everyone just says that the wii drive refuses to read burned copies without a modchip. However on gamecube, the program GCOS allowed just that - What is preventing a similar program from working on the wii?(No, not GCOS in particular, I know that it is GC native) Was it a specific flaw in the gamecube's firmware which does not exist in the wii's firmware, or what?
Yes, I understand that the scene does not want to encourage piracy, and NO I'm not begging for an iso loader or some other method for booting backups. I'm just curious to know
