Huh? No I haven't modded my Wii. I'm just saying that mine takes a long time to start up and I don't understand how a Wii with genuine hardware and firmware would boot so much faster than mine with genuine hardware and firmware. It looks pretty evident that he modified some of the internal hardware to at least move the buttons, and someone who would go that far might also go as far as modding internal hardware and/or firmware to add more functionality or performance, that is unless they want to keep getting official updates.

Before I go any further, I'm going to say that I watched the video again more closely and I noticed that the part between the press of the button and the main menu showing up was skipped with a quick fade, so that sort of disproves what I originally thought was an incredibly fast boot and skip of the warning screen which could only be done with a firmware hack.
