A major breakthrough has hit the Wii scene in the anatomy of a program called Trucha Signer.

This program allows you to modify the contents of a Wii iso and soon after re-sign it with an electronic signature the Wii will accept. Basically, in theory you could put anything you wanted into a Wii iso (or take out, eg: Wii updates) and by using that tool to re-sign it the Wii will not reject the altered disk.

The author has additionally stated he is working on adding Virtual Console and Wii Channel support to the program. It would be within the realm of possibility that a way to run any VC game or Wii channel on your Wii would pop-up at some stage.

The author states that tool was made possible through a system bug that compromised all of the Wii’s system shield. that bug is apparently easy for Nintendo to

spot and the author alludes that Nintendo might fix that bug in a future firmware update as they have done with a previous bug not disclosed to the public. Fixing the bug would stop the signature Trucha Signer uses from working.
