I'm picking up a Wii soon and don't feel like doing the soldering myself so I figure I would hit up the members here to see if anyone knows how or knows people who know how

 

I know of a person that can mod it for you in the Culver City area. I got my 360 modded and will be taking my Wii tonight if my GF gets to get one today for me.

let me know if you want to make the drive and I can give you his e-mail address so you can go from there.

 

what does the mod do? i know on the old playstation, it lets u play burned games.

 

theres a mod for the wii???? i want it wtf does it do?

 

yeah..what's it do?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

 

it does the exact same thing.

 

yeah..i just did some research online. it let's u played burned games and games from japan. 2 types of chips...one has 5 wires u have to solder onto the board just like the old playstations, and the other is bascially a circuit board with a microchip on it and u don't need wires to solder. you just have to place it on ur wii board and solder the matching solder points directly onto the cpu.

 

I can give you more info at the track

 

exactly! the mod costs $50 for the chip plus $50 for the install.

He sells the chip alone, if you're a DIY'r.

i just got my 2 wiis modded last week by this guy in the Alhambra area. If you still need to mod your wii, let me know. I'll give you his email address. Turnaround time is 40 min. and I got it done for 70 bucks for wiikey chip + install. In no way am I getting anything out of this, fyi

 

with the wii updating its system all the time... wont u eventually get caught?

 

yea thats what im worried about....i would wait a lil until theres not so many updates....so they wont catch on

 

say you bought it used and you never knew it was modded

 

Its not illegal to mod it, its illegal to have burned games for which u dont have the original copy.
