http://www.wiikey.cn - the only modchip that supposedly allows you to play NTSC games from other regions (Japan)

Not out yet though.

You'd kind of expect so, considering its name is WiiKey.

I suggest waiting and avoid getting the Mod chip, that WILL void your warranty that you have with Nintendo (and if you've purchased a warranty from the retail store you bought it from.). It's already been confirmed that the people who've made Freeloader for the Gamecube are in the process of making one for the Wii.

not really worried about the warrenty, if it breaks, sell broken one for parts, and buy a new one.. no worries

You're not worried about the warranty, simply because you did not purchase the system. And I doubt anyone would want a broken Wii for parts at the current moment, and the highest you can probably sell it for is 60 dollars. Also, stop double posting, there's an edit button for a reason. LEARN how to use it.

I don't know how people could expect to install a mod chip and not void the warranty. Yes a Freeloader's coming out someday, but there's nothing stopping Nintendo from releasing a firmware update to disable it. The advantage of an upgradeable modchip is that it's pretty much guaranteed to work forever (just don't update until a new firmware's been released).

And if the manufacturer stops releasing firmware updates, it'll be picked up by the community.

Oh, and I paid full price for my Wii. Little solder ain't gonna hurt, and if it does...it's only money
