    Thats just plain mean. The console is going for 400-500 euro on ebay,but I'd say ud have a little bit of a problem if u bundled it all together, out of most peoples price range. Still, impressive collection :D

    One wii console....

    I reckon you could name your price :), given all the panic I've heard around the office where I work from some people trying desperately to get one.

    Are they retail games?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,388 ✭✭✭d22ontour

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    but whats the difference? It looks the exact same wthout the manual...disc labels and all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 541 ✭✭✭Vorrtexx

    Isn't the difference that they won't play in an unmodded Wii console.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    Isn't the difference that it's illegal? And you'd essentially be trying to pass them off to someone as the genuine article along with the modded wii (which they also couldn't get a warranty for)

    You wil not get anything for this on ebay unless you are dishonest.
    Ebay does not allow you to sell pirated software.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    How is it being dishonest...whoever buys it gets to play all those great games...and its not like the companys making the games would get money from me selling original copies instead...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭AdrianII


    great games that you robbed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    Ya cause i really was going to buy all those games especially games like Zach and Wiki which arent out till next year in europe for some reason..pfft jealously


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭AdrianII


    your right i am jealous, but that is a nice collection you have there


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 760 ✭✭✭TheAlmightyArse

    Rubbish. Where do you think the original copies come from? Whatever way you spin this, you're just a sleazy thief.

    PS: Your lucky lucky buyer will have a great laugh when he or she connects to the internet, download a system update and find their new console bricked and their new library of games unplayable. Think of the Christmas morning joy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    Okay what ARE you talking about..where DO the original copies come from??...first im not selling anything...i just wanted to know the value of it if i was to sell...second the wii CANNOT be bricked from a system update..the chip only is only a drive chip which there is no way in hell nintendo can check..so get your facts right..Sleazy is a bit harsh for something so irrelevant aswell

    Yes the wii can be bricked from an update.
    simply google and you will find out.
    if you don't believe me try it.

    If you advertised the above on eBay it would be removed as it's illegal.
    if you want to challenge me on this, put it up there.

    Plus i'm pretty sure piracy/warez talk is banned in the charter.



    I'll give you 50 for the lot.

    You do not have a clue what your talking about.

    The only way to brick your wii is to update with a game thats not from your region..Such as NTSC wii updating with a pal version of Super Paper Mario...that is the only game to have caused this..Stop making up bull...do you think i do not know/would not care about the chances of bricking my precious wii...there is 0% chance of it happening unless your a freaking idiot and a freaking idiot would not have access to Ntsc wii with a pal paper mario and i can guarantee that...if you can prove me wrong have a shot..but you dont got a chance..You clearly dont know where to llok for information.

    My wii is the latest 3.1 E...im half way through Ntsc version of Galaxy...d you want pics??

    It's sleezy, unless you let the buyer know exactly what they are buying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭AdrianII


    look, he isnt selling the wii, he clearly said that

    Its his wii, he owns it and can do what ever he wants with it.

    He's talking about selling pirated games. Not cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    OMG im freaking not and even if i was there is NO difference!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 760 ✭✭✭TheAlmightyArse


    If you're not thinking about selling, why would you care about the going price? And can you really not see the difference between selling (or even just acquiring) legit software and dodgy software? Really?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭happydayz182


    No i am 16 years old and dont care about "software" morals...welcome to the future...!

    A future without software morals. I don't want to live in a world gone mad.

    So basicly what you are saying is that you are immature and can not fully understand the concept of morals.

    Thats a bit harsh on dat happydayz182 lad dont you think..he looks like a smashing lad:)


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 11,382 Mod ✭✭✭✭lordgoat


    Welcome to a full ban, your stay on boards was very brief so long!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 760 ✭✭✭TheAlmightyArse

    You didn't say you didn't care, you said there was no difference. Anyway, it'll be little use to argue the point any further, since you've obviously got that winning combination of arrogant and thick, and you're about to be very, very banned.

    Hey guys did anyone see any brain cells? Think I lost them in here somewhere.
    And goodbye, happydaze or whatever you were called. Trolling, warez, AND multiple accounts? Wow.

    While this is an issue here I would like to bring something up,

    The amount of people that harp on about their R4s in the Nintendo forum is a joke.

    No difference between playing burned games on a wii and playing games from an R4 cart on DS.

    Anyone pimping the R4 or bragging about having one should receive the same treatment as the moronic OP

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,131 ✭✭✭subway


    the r4 has multiple uses, including emulation and homebrew.
    talking about modding and chipping etc isnt against the general rules of boards (see the console modding forum as an example of this)
    but the discussion of warez and or piracy crosses the line.

    any discusssions on the r4 are very careful and clear to not wander into the realm of piracy

    I use my R4 equiv. to run homebrew apps. Should I be banned? There is a very hefty difference between Piracy (d/l games and playing them via an R4) and running homebrew apps.

    I've noticed it as well and almost banned a few people for it. I'm going to make a sticky about what can be discussed when talking about R4's. Basically talking about playing backups or bragging about playing back ups (although if some one is only using it to play a game early I will probably make some concessions for them) will not be looked upon favourably.

    To be honest I dont believe that thats is all you use it for.

    Sorry

    Well call me MR Pimp!

    As subway mentioned(although he was talking about more than me), I thread extremely carefully about what i say about the R4. As far as i know i never once encouraged anyone to use for anything illegal, or against the charter.

    EDIT:
    This guy was telling us all to mod our wiis and did not mention once about downloading all around us, big diffrence.:)

    Just because something CAN be used for illegal things doesn't mean we shouldn't be allowed discuss its other uses! Heck if that was the case you may as well delete the computer section of boards!(not exactly the same i know but it was nice and dramatic don't you think!)

    I have an R4 and personally i think they are amazing. Even if they were to remove that feature which makes talking about them an iffy subject i would still think its class!

    Here's a very small list of homebrew games that alone would make the R4 card worth its price.

    If I was to encourage people to download copyrighted material I would expect to banned

    actually yeah your right there is not! But he is encouraging people to mod there wiis for that use, refering to it as "the future"! Also his post on that other forum wasnt exactly encouraging us to support big N! linky here

    The issue is putting a value on pirated goods, thus crossing over into commerical copyright infringement. People harping on about R4's can do so under the premise of homebrew etc. No matter what you think, it is quite legitimate. This guy is blatently trying to see how much he can pimp his warez for once he's done with them. Its a pretty significant difference if you ask me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,264 ✭✭✭witnessmenow


    Is talking about r4s any worse than talking about "leaching"? You didnt say anything wrong in that post IMO , but if i should get banned for talking about R4s you should get banned for that.

    EDIT: Good point Jabba, this guy was trying to make a profit out of piracy, something that would be way up on the list of no-nos in my opinion.

    the point, however, is that what you believe and what is explicitly stated by the people using that hardware are two completly different things.

    i believe that ipods and the like encourage the obtaining of mp3s via non legit methods,
    i believe there is not a single mp3 player owner out there who hasnt copied a friends cd, downloaded from kazaa, or taken a few tracks from a well stocked laptop.
    this inferrance of mine is not enough to warrant the banning of there dicussion is it?

    and as linked by another poster, your love of the divx hardly paints you as the savior of copyright, does it?

    Dont really want to get into an argument about this,

    But nowhere in that post did i say I download DivX or anything illegal.

    The people talking about playing games on their R4 are the ones I were specifically talking about.

    Mentioning that you have an R4 to play homebrew is fine. But there are people who go on about crap like playing games they got from their "cousin" and all this lame crap.

    Anyway, Retr0 said he would keep an eye out and thats all i was asking for.

    Done.
