This is interesting. The obvious question, to me, is if this also applies to playing PS1 and PS2 games on the system. I have often considered buying a mod chip, but the main issue there has always been concern over how long before games with security features in them are designed to not work any more, and then the chip is only good for games made before that technology. As such, I've only done the physical mods, like on the SNES and N64, the ones that only use cartridge shape as a protection scheme.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
