    If anyone can't get a copy of Lego BM let me know, I'll buy the game for them here and post it, otherwise lend Lego BM. :)

    I wonder why it's only the Lego games that can carry out the exploit? Might be worth picking up the rest of them just incase :D

    Edit, it's not only Lego ones. Yugioh (or whatever it's called can do it for PAL) - http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_Channel#Installation

    Yep, and Hannah Montana now too. :)

    EDIT: That Yu Gi Oh game is over 180 euro to buy, so its a no go :D

    Amazon have Lego Batman for 13.35 euro. Estimated delivery date is 2 to 4 weeks though sadly.

    Not sure why (maybe how fast they can deliver), but Marketplace seller for 19.95 sterling is the first price listed, strange.

    I was going to order Lego Batman anyway so pleased I can have a crack at a hack.

    Wow... Lego Batman was a tenner on Amazon this afternoon and has sold out now (well, unless you count Amazon sellers)
    Worth trying Asda Entertainment, Shopto, TheHut and Zavvi as well (was under £15 on all of them earlier too)

    There are a few auctions ending soon on Ebay with 0 bids so far, so get in there quick!
    /edit
    There were when I checked 30 mins ago anyway!

    LEGO Batman is already cropping up on ebay at over 60 euro used

    EDIT: This hack is by far the easiest to do and was only discovered yesterday. So get the game while the retailers still have them!

    A fool and their money are easily parted tbh...
    There's an entire internet outside of Ebay but sadly a lot of people don't seem to realise that.
    Sure someone sold Lego Indiana Jones for €100 on the previous page, but there wasn't anything greedy about that imho. Opportunistic perhaps, but not greedy!

    I'll be having a look around a couple of game shops tomorrow for the heck of it

    Yea I sold Lego Indiana Jones for €100 plus €20 for insured, registered and signed for postage that actually cost me less than €8 (I didn't know the price of postage to europe), the game cost me €15 used, so I made €98 profit from that, the person who bought it I would imagine has made his money back on it (6 X €20 per softmod), I doubt he bought it to actually play it.

    You gotta take the oppertunity when it appears, and I will again but maybe not on this, whatever the exploit is or "are" will continue to expand I think, we have lego indi, lego BM, hannah montana and yu gi oh so far, next week another 10 exploit's may be discovered on different games, this treasure hunt is over now I'd say.

    Treasure hunt over? 3/4 games are hard to find, and in about a week or so Lego Batman will be in the exact same boat. It'll take a lot more than 10 or more exploits for these games to be considered low value. It's a pattern when an exploit is found that prices are driven up.

    Values of games will go down as more exploits are found, of course but I dont think it'll go down significantly for the time being.

    I said "but maybe not on this", I think you have just changed my mind, if I come across any €15 used I'll buy them, found a couple late in the game on lego indi, seems they'll fetch €50 a pop at the moment.

    Updated thread title to reflect changes ( I almost brushed over the thread!)

    Thanks Cherry for posting, I'll be popping into Athlone later to grab a copy for myself.

    I very nearly bought Lego indiana jones this week but the adverter refused to split a bundle, man am I glad he did now!! :pac:

    The hannah montana exploit is supposed to be a fake.

    Jeez, wasted journey!

    Not a single copy to be had in Athlone

    Looked in Tesco, Argos, Gamestop and asked in Xtravision and Smyths... nada.

    Thanks Cherry, I have no immediate need for I just wanted a copy in case anyone asked me. so in Theory you would be lending to the competition :pac:

    Looks like bricks and mortar is the only option if you want to get it at a decent price. Must have a look in town later.

    Its pretty funny how things can change in a matter of weeks. I think the window for making huge profits on these games is long gone!

    I checked online and when I originally was buying Indiana jones there were around 30 games and all going for at least 90/100 euro a pop.

    Now i check and there are over 140 games where the bids havent gone much farther than 30 quid.

    I'd say the people who bought it off others to make a quick buck are kicking themselves now.

    Incidentally, is it still just Lego Batman and Indy which can be used to exploit the 4.3e's?

    It has only been a little over a week since Bathax was revealed, so I'd say it'll take a while for the values to adjust, then again you could be right and they'll stay at £30 tops...

    And yeah, as far as I know Indy and Batman are the only 2 that will work with a 4.3 Wii..

    Nope - they threw Lego Star Wars into the mix last week

    Is there something about the Lego games that allows modding the Wii or just a coincidence ?

    I'd say it's because they're based on the same engine that the exploit can be adapted to work on most of them :)

    Who told me? I bought it for 15 man.

    You do know that its not just Indiana Jones that does the mod right? There are 2 other games? I checked ebay and the prices for Batman are under 25 euro, same for Lego Star Wars the complete saga.

    This one is nearly 20

    Do all these hacks work on the red Wii too? OR is there any restrictions on what the mod can do?
    I've been asked by a friend to do theirs. I've done a few white ones, including a 4.3E, but they just told they've the red one, so just wondering.
