Gaming Wii system serials?

[dookie11]

Hi,

I'm looking to purchase a new Wii soon so I can softmod it and enjoy it with the family. Which serials am I looking for if I want to play burnt-DVDs, homebrew, and USBLoader? And which serials should I avoid?

Been outta the scene for a while, since I got my Ps3 in April... Does the Wii system firmware matter anymore when looking to softmodding it?

Thanks for the help guys.

The lower the Serial, the more chance it can read dvd backups

But even the serial can't guarantee you that you won't have a new drive
And black wii's ALWAYS have the new drive
