Like all stories thus far on the Wii homebrew scene, this latest news isn't exciting because it's actually exciting, but rather because it portends great things to come for the future of Wii homebrew. If they can make a homebrew Wii Tetris today, then it's only a matter of time before we have ourselves some homebrew Wii Cave Story action, or joy of joys, maybe even homebrew Wii Velociraptor murder simulator.
Want to know more about how to homebrew some of your own personal Wii moonshine? Then check in with Chief Blaze in the C-blogs. He'll walk you through it.

But Tetris on a Wii? I would love to have seen a Mario clone or something instead. Good stuff!
Tetris is just another murder simulator, by the way.
oh and why isn't Tetris in my damn spell-checker?
it is now dammit
savagesaladin - You've already been able to run "backups" (with the use of a modchip) for a while now. This hack avoids the need for code-signing, so you can write and run your own code, rather than just signed code (i.e. commercial games). It's much more of a homebrew advance than a piracy advance.
Fadobo - wrong. It's running in Wii mode. I can only assume that he's using a GC controller because there's already established libraries for it on the GC homebrew scene, and nobody's written a wiimote driver yet which he could easily slap into his tetris game.
I want that on my tv, with wireless controls on my couch.
Also, who the hell would bother with Tetris instead of Twilight Princess?
