Evidence of the seemingly innocuous pink disc (pictured) was posted to the Internet by a member of #wiidev on IRC/EFNet, with the disc supposedly capable of restoring Nintendo Wii consoles back to their default factory settings while also allowing for a degree of alteration to some of the console’s internal settings via the system BIOS.

According to reports, the back-up disc was uncovered when a Wii user happened upon it after receiving their Nintendo Wii back following an official repair – a claim that has not yet been substantiated.
