Here we see a young man hacking, nay, stealing from the makers of the Nintendo Wii. We cannot condone this behavior, but if anyone knows what they did to pull it off, please let us know.

He had a Dev console probably. look at IGNs videos before they got the release units: developers gave them burned games on what looks like the same disks.
hrm. very good point.
dev kits are green arent they?
Or it could be a second console off-camera somewhere.
All of these videos can be done easily with a second console. You just have one plugged into the video inputs and one plugged in for show. Then you just synchronize shoving the disc in and tada!
My guess is that he has two Wii consoles. One is offscreen but is actually connected to the TV and the real Rayman disc was loaded in that one while the one shown is simply plugged in to accept the blank disc but is not connected to the TV.

Except that the dev units have a green front cover.
A different unit being plugged into the TV is much more likely.
Don’t dev units have green fronts? Not that they couldn’t switch them.
he wrote rayman raving rabids on a blank dvd-r.
One day about 10 years from now, the next gen Internet users will look back and say, ‘God those YouTube / self generated videos were such crap quality, how did you manage to actually stand the poor quality?’. I just can’t wait for the new generation of users that actually know about good quality footage.
hey.. did anyone say that the dev.s have a green front??
befor someone tals back.. YES that WAS sarcasms
Chances of second console seem highly unlikley from video…
look at the delay of the icon to go away when he presses eject near the end. it is a great amount of time compared to actually having it run off of the console, I call shenannigans, there is a second wii. with my wii, the icon disappears before the cd starts coming out.
I’m with Robbie with the two console theory.
At last :D

how do we know he never put an original game in the drive,we didnt actually see him putting it in did we? if this is true id defo buy one wen its released here in the uk
I reckon he did it with a large offscreen sausage. That way, he could put the DVD in the drive of the console in the video and trigger the offscreen sausage with a dash of fine French mustard.
Dun really care if its fake or not , just hope tht someone will hack it in due time.
I’m with bob on this one. You can smell the mustard from the footage.
