Hacking Best softmod of Hardmod for A WII
Solution
IMO, softmod is better than hardmod as you can do way more with it. The only thing you still can't do perfectly is reading GC backups from USB (and if you want that on a modchip, it's gonna cost you quite a bit).
Ofc it's also cheaper (free).

It is a little pricey, but the WODE is a fantastic way to go. Easy to install, and once its in all you need is a harddrive or usb stick to play games. Great compatibility (I've hardly ever found something that didn't work), GAMECUBE compatibility, fantastic user support on the forums, and pretty soon you can get the WODE base in black, silver, and orange too! In the long run, the unit pays for itself with how many games you'll be able to play without issue. It even has a few of its own homebrew apps that allow you to load games without having to use the on-base lcd screen. Of course, it can also load its own GCN disc-based menu for selection of games that way. All-in-all a very user friendly device with lots of options. It even rips, allows play of backup dvds, and if you so desire you can still play retail discs with it installed.
A little pricey (not as bad now as when I got mine at launch), but well worth the investment.

@AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.+2 -

Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other. -

I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet

Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
