Great idea that I could help on (Achievements)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Alright, this may be a pretty weird suggestion, but I always loved Microsoft's 
achievement system on the Xbox 360. I was hoping maybe this app could have 
something similar. Of course, scanning an entire game's save file on the Wii 
hard drive for these achievements would add some unnecessarily long code. I was 
thinking that there could be an "Achievements" button on the app's GUI that 
can download achievements for Wii, Gamecube, Wiiware, and Virtual Console games 
that can be downloaded to an SD Card and checked as "Complete" from the menu. 
I was also hoping that your server could host user-submitted achievements as 
well. If you agree, I could start writing some achievements for a few games. 

However, I have NO knowledge on Wii coding, so if this seems like a good idea 
to you, someone else would have to implement it while I manage the achievements 
themselves.

The problem with this is that it would be almost impossible to implement every 
game's save format in 
the app. I believe it is possible, but AFAIK there is no standard Wii save game 
format that you could 
easily use.
