:Lets say no. Almost all "un-official" wads are modified Nintendo wads, therefor illegal. iv read there are few legal ones out there. but rare, i have yet to see or hear of one other then hbc. and it is not "WiiBrew paranoia", Programs for piracy are the reason for the 4.2 update. at least in my opinion. granted i believe in the right to backup. but lets say 80-90% of the people that also believe in it, pirate. and on a side note. i think the next Nintendo update, witch Will probably have some cool new features, will be the roughest for homebrew yet. i think rough homebrewed waters are ahead. =( --[[User:Hatredg0d|Hatredg0d]] 19:31, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

+:No, because it restricts itself to already-authorized titles and isn't programmed by an idiot. As for the 4.2 update, if it was purely to kill piracy then why is the most dangerous part of the update specifically to kill BootMii? You can't separate homebrew and piracy in Nintendo's eyes; both of them require violating Nintendo's control of the software stack. WiiBrew avoids talking about WADs specifically because they are primarily used to package official software first and customized software second. Only recently have there been fully redistributable homebrew WADs. Creating them is a pain, and the only benefit is to those who can't run Bootmii/boot2 (for insta-HBC access) or don't have an SD card and thus need to install homebrew on the NAND. (not the best of ideas, of course). [[User:Kmeisthax|Kmeisthax]] 14:19, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
