Wii Browser “Hack” (updated)


Neato, the new Wii has a browser built in meant for using the Wii store, but just as you could hack around the PSP’s online feature when it shipped using a tricksy proxy, you can do the same with the Wii and trick it to go to other sites like google, Digg, Make, you know sites you like… Just set up your own DNS server, change the DSN settings in the Wii and send off the requests to somewhere else.

If someone sends me a photos of MAKE on a Wii I’ll send you something from the MAKE store. Update! Fred sent this picture in – record time! congrats Fred, yay – MAKE on a Wii…
