A WODE is able to play Gamecube games from USB, which is something softmod users currently can only whine about dream of.

A modchip is also prone to nintendo's firmware updates.


But other than that, there's no advantage to a modchip.

 

i use both. i read most of my games off usb. however i use the old wiikey2 when i want to use riivolution with a backup, or play metroid prime trilogy and select whatever difficulty i want.

i like having both.

oh yeah and like mentioned above. it plays ALL gc backups. (except alien hominind and i dont know why...)

 

You know...a simple Work In Progress shot distributed over an IRC channel on the first of april isn't exactly what I would call a reliable source for "soon". Especially since Crediar never mentioned anything that pointed in that direction. Except, of course, with a lot of goodwill and clouded judgment.

But since you're both too eager to contrast my remarkings with something you think is exclusive knowledge to even realise what I've written, I'll politely say it again:

Anyone else wanna be a wiseguy?

 

compatibility, reading disc at normal speed(6x), and the gamecube games from a USB

Edit:
USB loading has great compatibility, i think if you use CIOSCORP its like 99.99 % compatibility
USB loading can read at more then normal speed(6x)
Gamecube games from USB might be possible in the future?

 

You do realize that a chip makes the Wii read a backup as an original, right?

 

Is it?

If so, I apologise...I missed all of those countless people. I thought the current situation was that only wii games worked in the disc channel. But I admit I don't follow the everyday progress of sneek/uneek.

 

Give me a minute, Im sure I can come up with something

 

Lol, display gamecube games in the disc channel. Did you ever use NeoGamma's rebooter? If you use it, let the Wii identify the disc and then turn off the wii, and turn it on again. Then it still shows the disc in the disc channel, even if it wouldn't do that normally. I guess the data what disc is inserted could be manipulated to make the wii think there's a GC disc inserted.

And a WODE doesn't play GC audio streams and will never do. That's a good reason for me to prefer a good modchip over a WODE.

You can try NeoGamma R9 beta with WiiGator's cMIOS installed. Since it now plays retail discs, you might be lucky.

 

ummm yes you can!!!!
do you even have a modchip?

I personally believe it's best in this day and age to have both!

my wii: wiikeyv1, parts off cioscorps/darkcorps, cios rev17b, hermes cios. bootmii as boot2 and ios, priiloader!!!!!
