This is a red herring - neither PS nor Wii are able to run code unsigned by either Sony or Nintendo. The only people able to actually *rebuild* a modified application are the people having the development kit. However, those are also able to sign the code and run it. If you are imagining Joe Schmoo hacking a Soya game on Playstation in his living room, that is not going to happen - he will not even have the compiler to start with and means to master the proprietary disc format needed for the unmodified console neither. You cannot get the development kit as an individual - it is around 5000USD/seat and only "reputable and established developers" are eligible to get it and only under a draconian contract. Hobbyists need not apply. Please, find a better example.
