|
 |
It seems that Wiinja is already outdated even before its release. Fedex dropped a nice little gift for us today to review. Say hello to CycloWiz!
Here is what we know so far about this chip:
- Quicksolder (no wires required)
- Plays Wii Backups
- Plays GC Backups
- Play GC Homebrew
- Play GC Imports (swap needed)
- Built-in Audiofix (GC games using streaming are working flawlessly, no patch needed)
- DVD-R / DVD+R support
- Optional chip disable wire
- Stealth even when chip is enabled
- Multi-purpose LED
The chip is supposed to be shipped by the end of the week, so in fact this may be the first "real" Modchip to reach the market!
It looks like a very pro and easy to install solution! We're not sure Wiinja has built-in audiofix, but this is definitely a must-have feature. Expect a review soon, including a video of the installation process!
The teams' website is launching soon at Teamcyclops.com

So...why is this real and Wiinja not? I'm not defending it, stil...They're both modchips, both seem to work, but wiinja came to be first, so, enough with this crap of "first real modchip".

Because maxconsole.net received today this modchip, and not the other one (which, by the way, is just a PIC… weird for a modchip).

There's already a GCOS build for Wiinja, so it's indeed real. The first PS1 modchip was also a PIC chip. Just because it's simple doesn't mean it won't work. Now if i just could get a hold of the hex code...

Quicksolder is just the term meaning it's a rebuild and no wires needed. Although I would say the wiinja is a much easier install.

Yeah, just like what happened to the PS2...oh wait, nothing happened. Do you really think most ppl pirate games? |
I do.
And I'm sure all people here know the feeling when an AAA title is getting downloaded the day the title is out...swwwwweeet. |
Me too, but that doesn't mean that the other 65% know shit about warez.

my PS2 is modded and I still buy games... I have bought all my 360 games... The thing is they sell the games at a far to high price £40 - £50 per a game is just too much for some people.. Before you know it after buying 3 games its already cost you another £130 - £150!!!

thats the main reason why i'm not buying, get 10 DL disks for 30e,dLd,burn,play
how simple can it be and if those greedy bastards loose couple of millions i don't care,drop price to 20-30e and more ppl whould get them,well i'll still be getting those verbatims tho  |
Hahaha, i love these post when people try to justify why they steal.hahaha. I doubt even if the game were $20 people that pirates would buy them. Until the price drops below the price to burn it, people will always steal it. Just like cettain people will always buy it, at what ever price.

Modding, downloading, burning ... long and boring.
There's not enough game out for me to mod my Wii yet. For the few games that are interresting, I can buy them. By the time enough games will be out so that I can't buy them all, better modchip will be released ( if not firmware updates ) with support for hard drive. (So that I won't damage the optical part of my console.)

Doubt all you want, I know I would buy a game if it cost £20 and had quality written all over it not all of us here are on a mega salary like you buddy so if something is worth it why not? I can justify paying THAT much for a game plus I can ebay it when im bored of it

I agree with Godlikez. The price of games and DVD's is a piss take.
Especially considering that the games industry is worth more than the film industry now.
£20 for a Wii game sounds about right for a healthy profit.

developers actually see about 3 quid per game sold, the situation needs to be sorted with publishers for prices to be lowered and that will never happen

Well then the developers need to get publishing themselves and if that's not possible they need to broker new deals.
If they stopped developing then the major console makers would have problems.
As it stands the consumer is the one getting hit in the pocket and basically that is just plain wrong.

The "Next-gen" game-prices are a real rip-off! 50% off before I even consider to buy a game for those consoles (At least Xbox360). Only Really really "must have games" will get a buy from me.. and they aren't that many really (None right now).
Squirrely: Now come on y'all. We can't waste time arguing. There could still be survivors out there. We need to hunt them down, and kill them.
Beary: How about we kill them, and then rape their bodies so we can use their blood as lubricant.

I think the major problem with the Wii is the price of the games especially when the console is aimed at a younger audience... How many 10 year olds can afford a game costing £40 - £50???... For me and most others on here a Modchip is the only way but I will still buy good games (Eg I buy all the GTA Games and Xbox 360 games and some PS2 games..)
If the games came down to £15 - £20 each then I would buy them all.
