LIES!!!! Someone will probably find a way.

 

[SanGor]

you sure did waste some money there frodo ...

 

[Empyr69er]

wow, thats a lot of cash for a wii that doesnt play games lol. let's hope you develop some cool stuff.

 

[ChuckBartowski]

Errrrr.... not to sound too noobish, but what is the RVT -R wii? I mean, whats it for and why does it look funny. Plus, why does it say wireless rvtr reader or sumtin? Im confused.

 

[Empyr69er]

I read a little bit about it..apparently its solely only for developing(games/software i dunno?). It apparently doesn't even play retail games.

 

[ChuckBartowski]

I read a bit too and understand mostly. This seems even more interesting though: http://assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11669

Ah, I see you found my thread over at Assemblers

I'd recommend people check out the above link for more detailed/technical info on the dev units.

But basically, all final/pressed discs have to go via Nintendo Japan for approval and such. They then have to be made at Nintendo's factories.
It's very time consuming for developers and not very practical when developers need discs for demos or review code to send to the media for previews, E3, and such.
RVT-Rs are the Wii Equivalent of DVD-Rs. Blank discs in large spindles that can be burnt to with a burner with specific firmware. It allows devs to burn and test in progress code quickly and easily.

Anytime you see unreleased Wii games at shows like E3, GDC etc... they are running on RVT-R readers. Though they will usually have the white faceplates.
Because these units are only supposed to be in the hands of developers it means if these demos are stolen they can't be used/dumped.

Because some of the earlier dev units had wiimotes with cords

Like this one (The white cable)

 

[Vidboy10]

Does anyone bet this has a Different Firmware unlike the Ones from We get from retail wii's?

 

[icefireicefire]

there is only one piece of firmware on the wii (mainly) and it has never been updated.

 

[Vidboy10]

Yes but i mean a Completely different firmware unlike 3.2, 3.3, 4.0, so on and so on.

 

[zeldafn333]

Dude thanx for the info. Also, on the Hard Drive unit labeled Zelda, is that because thats the game running on it? Would it be possible to change the game with the usb interface on the front?

 

[studio1b]

i do not think the wii on ebay was stolen if you have looked at his older selling you would see he sold a PSP TEST SYSTEM for like $7000 so where do you think a wii dev system going for $700 lol thats 10x lower of a PSP test unit just my 2 cents

Yeah, I assume the Wii is connected to the dev unit and games are managed via the mini usb port on the front. You would need to have the proper software though you wouldn't be able to just plug it in to any old PC.
It's the same Zelda demo that was dumped by a forum member recently.

No, just no.
You're are an idiot.
I took the photos myself at a Nintendo event. They have the official operating instructions taped to the side of them ffs.

Are you sure you posted in the right thread? I'm confused

 

[Frodo The Hobbit]

Wii has been shipped

It's currently in customs office. Video and photo this week

 

[MakoBlue]

So... what does this thing mean for the wii scene anyways?. would be nice if it meant a new unbricking method

(stupid power company).

 

[UranusKiller]
