Hacking cut legs on chip!!!!!

[fusiontrig]

I'm a little confused. I have one of the new Wiis with the missing solder point, but the chip legs are NOT cut.
Do I cut them and then grind down the chip? Or just ignore them and grind down the chip for soldering...?

Yeah I'm trying to swap my wii for an older one but am having a hard time convincing people that I'm not trying to scam them =/ Anyone think we're doing to see an easier installation D2C chip anytime soon?

wii sports in dvd cover = 100% non-cut legs
wii sports in paper sleeve = most likely to be cut legs, but it dont have to.

just remember for pal wii's: leh123 or higher = cut legs! I got several leh1229 and all were with legs intact.

I think mines in the dvd cover... here's a pic I found that is the same case as mine:http://static.flickr.com/107/298091302_c645d7790b.jpg
