Question

I'm looking for a Wii mod chip that i don't have to solder in. I was looking at either the drivekey or flatmod but don't know which one is better.
Any advice would be great. : )

Answer 1

Hi King



There are now 3 new mod chips to choose from in the next generation of solderless mod chips, these are: DriveKey, FlatMod and Wasabi DX.



All of these new mod chips have a load of features including compatability with all versions of the Wii. Here is a good article which list all the features of these new mod chips http://www.techsick.com/articles/wasabi_dx_flatmod_drivekey_flatmii_modchips_compared.shtml



I have listed some sites below for more information and where you can buy them from.



PS: Forget about Soft modding your Wii because it is the soft mods that stop working when Nintendo release a firmware update Not the mod chips.



Mod chips have never stopped working from a firmware update.



If you do decide to soft mod, don't pay for it!!! Everything you need is available for free, just do a search for Homebrew Channel.

Answer 2

You now don't need a mod chip in order to mod your wii the wii softmod is available http://tinyurl.com/ah4eov this allows you to play backed up games, watch movies and tv shows and you don't have to make a hardware mod or open the wii eveything is done via software.



Hope this helps

Answer 3

I'm usually against modding (well, if the intent is pirating anyway) but why not just use the Twilight hack? You can mod your Wii without even having to open it up, so there is no risk in breaking it and it doesn't void your warranty.

Answer 4

softmod it, less complicated, plus, illegal!
