The Cheapest Wii devkit!!!

But aren't there already existing methods to dump the firmware from your 360's DVD drive? So a device like this for the Xbox 360 would theoretically be possible?

 

Read closer. This isn't about the 360's HDD.

 

D'oh. Indeed, I meant dumping the firmware and all that jazz from the DVD drive.

 

anyone ordered it/ got it yet ?

 

Matrix Team are prototyping a similar device caled the WiiZii that allows you to connect a SATA HDD.

Yes, this thing is legitimate -- it is a full-fledged replacement for the drive, not some Datel hack. No, I don't have one, although I think it would actually be useful for development -- but I am not a big fan of people behind it (who are unrelated to the GC drive emulator project).
