Ok so my friend bought a modded Wii while he was oversees but doesnt know what modchip is in it. Is there anyway we can figure this out, short of opening up the system or is there a universal firmware update (that would work with any modchip) that we could get.

And this is an interesting problem because..........? Well I guess you could just try every update out there. My first guess would be to try rewritables and see if they work. Then try a bunch of update discs for different chips (wiikey, etc.).

know the chipset in it. that would be a good start. if its a D2C, a good chance its a D2Ckey modchip. newer released Wii consoles are D2C. search Wii Serial Tracker in Google and input the Wii's serial number.

    Steamdeck weak performance anymore, and it doesn't officially support gamepass, have to do workaround to get it.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    It works okay any high performance portable will be $600+
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Its rumored to be $499-599, 2 versions, but we'll see. https://www.purexbox.com/news/2025/...and-other-key-details-teased-in-latest-report

    Latest Switch 2 leak says it will have a LCD, not OLED, run most games 40fps max, and only be 1.5 tflops handheld, 3 tflops docked. That's less than the steamdeck at 1.71 handheld, 3.1 docked.

    Switch 2 LCD is about like TN type compare to old Nintendo Switch LCD before. Also games running on 40 FPS look not good for us and people. 60 FPS are best for normal everyday gaming. That's weird. I think should not buy Switch 2 because it like Switch 1.5 something like that. Little improve but not major improve. I think going to skip it.

    Yea that's just rumored but not sounding that impressive for a next gen upgrade. Of course Nintendo is very good at optimization of their games to play well, but for a $400+ 2025 console I expected a little better. Even a $299 2020 Xbox Series S has 4 tflops.

  • Anrei @ Anrei:
    I thought it was supposed to be on par with an xbox 1 in power, why is it running most things at 40fps lol
  • Anrei @ Anrei:
    in terms of power I thought it was a 2.0 compared to the switch man 40fps sounds whack is there poor optimisation or something?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Just rumors/ leaks. We will find out in a few weeks. But yea prob way underpowered to save battery, for longer playtimes, like Switch 1 is.
