            <title>Wii Rumors~</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/411350</link>
            <description>&lt;b&gt;Black and Red Wiis&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An anonymous (aren&amp;#39;t they always) Nintendo representative has apparently said colored Wii consoles will be available before 2007 is out. According to the rumor black and red are the only confirmed colors at this stage though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_blackredwii.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;FireFox on Wii&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor is circulating that Satoru Iwata confirmed that a version of everyone&amp;#39;s favorite browser FireFox is in development for Wii. This comes courtesy of a small blog and is highly suspect&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_firefox.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mortal Kombat Online&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Irish website (I&amp;#39;m dubious already &lt;!--emo&amp;^_^--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/happy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='happy.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;) is claiming that Mortal Kombat: Armageddon will be the first 3rd party game to make full use of the Wii&amp;#39;s online capabilities. Here&amp;#39;s hoping.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_mkonline.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kingdom Hearts on Wii&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently Disney and Square Enix have agreed that the next Kingdom Hearts game should be available on Nintendo systems. As always this is a rumor, take it with a grain of salt&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_kingdomhearts.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wireless Nunchuk&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An unconfirmed rumor exists that Nintendo are now working on a wireless nunchuk. This stems from some complaints that the wire restricts movement in games like Boxing (a part of Wii Sports).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_wirelessnunchuk.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wii Sports 2&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rumors from an official source in Japan suggest that a sequel to Wii Sports could be on the way. Said to include varied sports like tennis, hockey, volleyball, swimming and horse riding it&amp;#39;s supposedly full of new and revised gameplay features. Most interestingly, the rumor also claims it will have online play so you can face off against other sports fans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_wirelessnunchuk.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tingle RPG on Wii&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Word is going around that Nintendo won&amp;#39;t be working on a Zelda sequel for the Wii initially, but turning their attention to a spinoff RPG featuring Tingle. If true, this is likely due to the fact that Tingle&amp;#39;s game on DS has been a major hit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_tingle.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wiimotes for legs&amp;#33;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor has started that Nintendo are looking into ways of making wiimotes suitable for leg use. This would likely work by some kind of strapping mechanism. Image the possibilities. Football&amp;#33; Dancing&amp;#33; Err... long jump?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_legwiimote.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;EA developing Wii Sims game&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor going around says that EA are developing a Sims game specific to the Wii console. Details don&amp;#39;t go any further than that, but as a recent fan of The Sims series I hope this is true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_sims.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='color:red'&gt;True&amp;#33;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wii to use Linux operating system&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A supposed internal-blogger has been claiming the Wii uses Linux as its operating system. Linux is free so this would make sense from a cost perspective. It&amp;#39;s also known for stability and would allow for the multimedia features the Wii uses, but definitely take this with a grain of salt&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.wiisworld.com/images/rumors/rumor_linux.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style='color:red'&gt;Nintendo has us punk&amp;#39;d?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor is out that the Wii is graphically a lot more powerful than we&amp;#39;ve been led to believe. It&amp;#39;s been said that Nintendo have been playing us for fools the whole time, showing us demos with substantially crippled graphics compared to the Wii&amp;#39;s true capabilities. Why would they do this? To create a sense of wonder and surprise at the next press event which takes place on September 14th in New York. Watch this space&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wii voice recognition&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Behold&amp;#33; Yet another rumor. Word has it that the Wii will ship with special voice recognition software which will take your spoken words and turn them into text on-screen for other players to read. The microphone used will be attached to a wireless headset. Apparently Nintendo have been working on this technology for years, not only will it transfer the words but it will also recognise voice pitch and volume to choose fonts, colors and sizes accordingly. If true this will be a real step up from the DS&amp;#39; Brain Training which struggles to even recognise the word &amp;#39;Three&amp;#39;. Or is it just me &lt;!--emo&amp;^_^--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/happy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='happy.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Luigi&amp;#39;s Mansion 2 on Wii&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There&amp;#39;s a rumor doing the rounds that Luigi&amp;#39;s Mansion 2 is under development and is on its way to the Wii. For what it&amp;#39;s worth, we here at Wii&amp;#39;s World (all 1 of us) think the original was underrated and would welcome a sequel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Square Enix MMORPG on Wii&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor is circulating that gaming giants Square Enix, the company behind the Final Fantasy series are making an MMORPG for the Wii. The game is said to be based on their &amp;quot;Mana&amp;quot; franchise, known as Seiken Densetsu inside Japan. Watch this space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Apple buying Nintendo?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CNet UK state that rumors are going around about Apple buying Nintendo. There are seemingly no facts backing this at all and it&amp;#39;s likely just a waste of time, but the article points out the two companies have a similar approach to business and products that are stylistically similar. That is, the Wiimote and the iPod look like they are practically related. The last time Apple delved into gaming was with the monstrocity known as Pippin, which was a comical failure. Apple, stay away. Please?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wii has instant messaging?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A patent filed by Nintendo has aroused rumors that the Wii console could have some form of instant messenger as part of its online function. The patent describes a buddy list which displays the status of each player on it, for example what game they&amp;#39;re currently playing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wii has a camera, PPU and headset?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A leaked issue of a gaming magazine supposedly has an article on Wii which reveals secrets not yet publicised by Nintendo. The article suggests the Wii will have a built-in camera. One use for this would be to include your picture on a character model&amp;#39;s head in games like Wii Sports. Furthermore the Wii is more powerful than originally thought, with the graphics chip from ATI supporting HDR and bump mapping. It also says the Wii will sport a hardware physics processor (PPU) with its own 32MB of RAM. Other details are that the Wii will have a headset available to it similar to those used for XBox Live. Lastly Nintendo will release SD memory cards with storage ranging from 2Gb to 7Gb.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wiimote uses AA Batteries?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a spokesperson from Nintendo the wiimote will operate on two standard AA batteries of alkaline or lithium ion type. Unfortunately this would mean that recharging isn&amp;#39;t a standard feature of the Wii controller. On top of this, the wiimote will apparently have a shorter battery life than a Wavebird controller because of the additional information it sends out. Bad news for wii fans everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='color:red'&gt;True&amp;#33;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Charger accessories will be available shortly though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wiimote can&amp;#39;t aim under Halogen lighting?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Word is out that the wiimote can&amp;#39;t aim properly at certain angles when halogen lighting is used in the room. As halogen lights get more common in our homes it could put a dent in the Wii&amp;#39;s popularity. If this rumor is true hopefully Nintendo can solve it before launch. The alternative of course is to play without the lights on. Night tennis anyone?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wiimote is a VOIP Phone?&lt;/b&gt;  &lt;span style='color:red'&gt;This is FALSE&amp;#33;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rumor is circulating that the wiimote can be used as a VOIP phone. It&amp;#39;s already known the wiimote will have its own speaker, if it has a microphone too the rumor could have some substance to it. The &amp;quot;WiiConnect 24&amp;quot; method of connecting to the Internet means that the Wii is always active to some extent, even when powered off. This means that calls could possibly be received anytime. Also the shape of the wiimote might lend itself well to phone use.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

            <description>A method has been found for dumping Wii game discs via PC. Unfortunately, the process takes approximately 50+ hours to dump an entire disc&amp;#33; A readme with instruction is included. Remember, this process takes over two full days to dump a single disc. This method is suitable for testing purposes only&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don&amp;#39;t rely on other half-assed websites to give you full details when they only copy their content from here. This only works with LG and Hitachi drives&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33; I have been reading a lot of posts on other forums (who don&amp;#39;t credit us as the original source, by the way) from people claiming this is working with other drives, reading the whole disc in just a few hours, etc. The program uses debug commands in the LG (Hitachi) firmware so that is pretty much impossible. You may be dumping something... but it&amp;#39;s not the correct data.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To tell if you are dumping correctly, check if the DVD name shown by rawdum is a &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; name. If it shows garbage, the dump WILL fail (even with a compatible drive). If you have a compatible drive and the DVD name is garbage, restart rawdump and DVDInfoPro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will need: An LG-8164b, LG-8163b or LG-8162b DVD-ROM drive.&lt;br /&gt;The DVDInfo program.&lt;br /&gt;.NET framework 2.0 installed on your PC.&lt;br /&gt;The apps attached to this news post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Information above are copied from www.ps2-scene.org...&lt;br /&gt;wondering will this work to back up your disc... therefore can keep your original copy nicely&amp;#33;&lt;/b&gt;  &lt;!--emo&amp;:)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;  &lt;!--emo&amp;:thumbs:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='thumbup.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>
