Feel free to comment on how you are finding your particular chip.


If your chip falls into the Other category, please tell us what it is.


I have a YAOSM myself ... finally broke down and chipped my Wii a couple of days ago ... I had been using a FreeLoader to play original imports, and I still use the FreeLoader to avoid getting duplicate channels.

My D2Ckey has been great overall without needing patches for things like brawl. The only issue I have is that it REALLY doesn't like it when you switch from Wii to Gamecube mode or vice versa and will often force you to fully power down the machine before it will play anything again. Other than that its a top chip. Just hope that that lack of an easy firmware update doesn't bite me in the ass later down the road.

Official Wiikey, and I couldn't be happier. Screw the people who complained about brawl. It's made to read backups, and It does that flawlessly.

    I thought PS4/5 and Xbox One emulation would be kind of easy since they basically just a PC
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    they sorta are a pc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc

    Every games basically cross platform they only have about 6 titles making it worth the $600 price tag
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Didn't see much need for a console, all the advantages have kind of disappeared
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The ps3 was always Linux they just found a way to make it open source

    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.

    Yeah even bt support for Xbox one controllers are just as easy as pairing

    Xinput and 360 dongles were a driver nightmare
