ModChip for Wii ?

V@A · 12-09-2006, 01:55 AM

Somebody hear anything about it ? Viper chip or anything else... ?

Naish · 12-09-2006, 04:21 AM

Heard Viper chip was a hoax. I thought the wii was region free?

Paladine · 12-09-2006, 04:36 AM

The Wii just came out, those things take awhile, like a year

registerednerd · 12-09-2006, 04:36 AM

Nope, it's region locked. I heard something on these forums about a chip to make the slot light sound active, but nothing gameplay-wise.

V@A · 12-09-2006, 02:17 PM

so , we have to wait for modchip

hope they will find a solution fast enough , because I dont wanna pay 50$ for those games.

PulseVU is the only chip I've heard that has been released for the Wii thus far. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for chips so as soon as my Wii loses its warranty I'm gonna pop one in.

V@A · 12-09-2006, 02:21 PM

I have 2 Wii ,so one of them I can modify right now.I dont care about warranty.

I just got into all this modding/emulator stuff so look's like it's eyes-peeled for me too

I'm trying out GameFly with my Wii. Then I can try out all those games I wouldn't buy.

@paladine - if you find something , let us know.

I'm mainly interested in being able to play import games from all regions, hopefully one will be out soon.

Well if they find a modchip or freeloader type deal let me know.

Long live the kingdom of Hyrule

Guys chill, mod chips can't be made until after the system is out. Then people have to completely pick apart the OS to figure out how it works, then developt the chip to modify it. This doesn't include manufacturing time. It takes time. Everyone is getting so impatient with the Wii.

I don't know why some of you guys seem to be complaining about spending 50 for some games...

You make it sound like you want a modchip for copies or something. Now for playing games that are locked and aren't ever gonna be available around here, I understand that as long as you pay for it.

I intend to get a freeloader type or something if they should ever come out and some of the japanese anime games dont come over here.

Yeah... i heard you turn on PulseVU by simply holding down reset for "4" seconds. and if you go to this URL- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DEyC3HvJKA&eurl=, you can watch the whole thing.

cake · 12-10-2006, 05:57 AM

sorry... i didnt clarify my info...

Link_of_Hyrule · 12-10-2006, 06:25 AM

Right now you can play any region ngc disk on your wii if you have this certain disk i think thats what freeloader is but i never had an ngc so i don't know anything about that stuff

for the simple reason : if I dont have too , why I shouldn't.

Because companies regardless of the fact if they have millions of dollars rely on income?

For example if everyone didn't pay for Zelda, Nintendo would see no profit from it, and thus no reason why to continue the franchaise. Companies use the sales to determine if they make more of a certain game. They aren't going to keep making crappy games for nothing.

Plus if a game is really bad, there are tons of places where you can use it for trade in credit, or for a large portion of your money back.
