Hacking Buy Wii, help me with all the details :)

[SLiV3R]

So finally im going to buy a Wii. I have read many topics at this forum to get more information. But I still would like to have some advice from the experts

First what I want to do one my Wii
1. Play everything from an external HDD. No burning for me.
2. Be able to play Virtual Console games
3. Play Wii games of course
4. Be able to look at movies
5. Im not so intreasted of emulators of I can play Virtual Console, but I will of course have some emulators on it anyway

Thats it!

I have been looking at two different Wiis.
1. One with wiikey2 chip, costs 170 euro, little used (dont care about if it is a used one)
2. The other has Wiiflow installed and costs 250 euro.

From what I have read from this forum is that GX & CFG is the best USB loading. is wiiflow ok?

Would it be easy for me to install GX or CFG on the Wii with the Wiikey2 chip? that would be the best solution I guess.

Take care, I want to play the new Kirby game

WTF? 250 with WiiFlow installed?

Why not buy a new from store and softmod it yourself?

I guess they are cheaper than that.

And as you dont wont to burn games, a new Wii is best for you.

Just use ModMii and you´re good to go and play whatever you want on it.

Yeah... if you have no plan on playing burned games, get a new wii (or if you want to save a few bucks, the used wii with the wiikey chip) and a copy of lego indiana jones as together should be cheaper than that wiiflow wii (or about the same price) and you'll know exactly what's been done to it.

Buying a soft modded wii you don't know what's been done to could potentially be a time bomb... it's just not worth it, especially for the cost you listed.
