With no PS3 modchip in sight, it seems hackers and tinkerers have
moved on to thoroughly exploiting the Nintendo Wii. WiiXT, the latest
modchip to come out of hiding, is being touted as the "Ultimate Wii
Modchip" by its creators. Why? Maybe because it'll allow any Wii or
Gamecube backup to be played, keeps VC support, and allows region-free
playback of DVDs.

It looks like a solid effort, but until I see one of these for sale
next to a Pro Action Replay, I call vaportrash. Just read this stuff
that's directly posted to the site:

    I'd like to resell / buy / sample the WiiXT - Currently we do not
have the funds to start production, understand that we have bricked
countless Wii's working on this chip, and buying more Wii's can be
very hard due to the lack of supply. When we are nearing a set release
date, there will be more information for resellers and samplers on
this site.
