I assume people would need to know your Consoles version.

I've had a Cyclowiz in my launch Wii and apart from having to update the chip for SMG and SSBB, it's worked without a hitch.
I'm sure Wiikey is also working but at the time of these "releases", the Wiikey team was a bit behind in their updates and support work arounds for these particular games.
That means alot when a team can back up their product.
And, at the time, i was thankful to have installed a Cyclowiz.

They're available here

The people who modded a friends Wii were very confident in Wiikey, but thats all i can say.

The best and easiest way to get a console modded is to hire a professional.

Ive not looked into Wii modding at all but am thinking of buying my son one for his upcoming birthday.. So I also have a few questions

Are any 'plug and go' or do they all require a bit of soldering?

Anyone know a good place in the U.K that flogs ready modded units?

Cheers

and soz to the original poster for hijacking the thread with my questions Smile

If you buy one now, its not so easy.
The newer consoles are harder to mod. modchips have ~16 wires min.

@Awe: WRONG! Not anymore!

If you are unsure what chip you have in your Wii (Nintendo chip that is), go to www.nintendo-scene.com and choose the "WiiTracker", fill in your serialnumber there.

If you really want a all-around chip to go with your wii is Wasabi or D2Pro.

Wasabi is the best option, since its easy to upgrade and D2Pro aint.
If you want to mod your Wii without Solding you can get a Wii-clip, solid the chip to the wii-clip and just put it on over the wii, you will still need to de-assamble the wii but its easy as pie with a tutorial.

I agree with previous posts re: newer wii = wasabi/D2Pro.
But, out of curiousity, i did get a wiiclip for one wasabi i did ($25 extra) and it wasn't any help so i went the traditional route.
Maybe it was fooked? Rolling Eyes
