So supposedly going to be inexpensive... so a pre-programmed Stern licensed wifi dongle that you hook up via app for a game port maybe?

Quoted from Elvishasleft:Like most new IT adventures...
I look forward to the endless bitching and moaning about how poorly this will work/ be implemented when it comes out.
Wonder how many folks with game code mods will adopt this (as you'll need official unmodded code)? Granted the game mods add a ton of media but the functionality / competition factor may win over some more than others. Seems as though with GotG recent update, Stern has locked the ability to be able to use Pinbrowser to make mods.
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:This a thousand times over. Now will the movie mod for JP work if you put the old code into it with the movie mod since all other parts are the same other than the QR and WiFi???
More than likely not because there will be a hash check of sorts to verify the OG code vs. anything potentially modded of that code. If the hash doesn't match the hash of the OG code means you'll have to flash it to that to use the connected fun. (Not that I agree with it, but hey, they have a tight ship to run and you cant have extra vid clips and songs!)
