Piracy is an act of robbery or criminal violence by ship or boat-borne attackers upon another ship or a coastal area, typically with the goal of stealing cargo and valuable goods, or taking hostages. Those who conduct acts of piracy are called pirates, and vessels used for piracy are called pirate ships. The earliest documented instances of piracy were in the 14th century BC, when the Sea Peoples, a group of ocean raiders, attacked the ships of the Aegean and Mediterranean civilisations. Narrow channels which funnel shipping into predictable routes have long created opportunities for piracy, as well as for privateering and commerce raiding.

Wii hacking has become a hell of a lot easier since Nintendo abandoned the console and stopped pushing endless updates that stopped common hacks working without actually improving the console's functionality. And since the Wii Shop and all the online functionality has been discontinued too, hacking has become essential if you want to use the Wii's full capabilities.
