Nintendo Wii is a leading video game system, which has drawn much attention to it in the past. It has even drawn the attention of hackers that wanted to desperately hack this system. It seems that they had succeeded, as Nintendo Wii is not really focused on implementing security measures. Hackers from HackMii were able to crack the Wii Menu and proved that more security measures should be implemented. Nintendo was generally fighting back by encouraging the government to execute search warrants and trying to track illegal modification chips. I believe that there are more things that Nintendo can do and they should start by trying to implement better protection for their console, as they have millions of customers that should be protected from any potential security vulnerabilities.
