Wiinja: The First Wii Modchip!

[nloding]

Any word on the POT adjustments? If it's anything like the Gamecube, screw that. But if someone dumps the code from the PIC, I'll just grab a cheap PIC, borrow my buddies programmer, and there we go. A whole $2.

But if I need to mess with the POT like I had to with my GC ... nevermind. Not worth my time.

Why not? It's not even difficult. All you need is a multimeter and a screwdriver.

Still someone who has never enjoyed the superior swiss education might not know how to use those tools.

I know how to solder and how to adjust the POT. But it's a pain in the ass to tweak it, try it, tweak it, try it, tweak it, try it. There isn't one setting that works for all GC's ...

If I have to adjust the POT on my Wii, forget it. If I don't, shit, I'll do it just for the GC backups.

EDIT: I mean make my own chip programming a PIC, not buying theirs

Not that I don't want to support the scene, but I'm unemployed, so $2 is better than $45.

Wish I spoke Spanish

Looks like a very simple install. Again, I'm curious about the POT, and how long it will take before someone dumps the PIC itself

(I'm awful ... ripping off a group that's releasing a chip that can play ripped off games ...)

I just hope I get my Wii before a hardware update has been made at the factory making this chip obsolete for future generations of Wiis. It seems like it's actually a smart and simple solution. I'm hopeful for the future of the Wii.

I bought my screwdrivers, but now I guess I need a soldering iron!

Can't wait to see the review.. I don't have a console (just 4 DSLites).. If this allows me to play GameCube and Wii games, I'll get a Wii and this modchip and start d/ling GC and Wii roms immediately!

The GC controller looks so much different than the Wii controller, are they compatible? Do GC games played on the Wii take advantage of the motion-controlled Wii controller?

Not that it matters, but you'd be download DVD images, not exactly ROMs per se. Anyway, the GC controller plugs into the Wii console itself, at the top. There's also a spot for the GC memory cards. So you aren't using the Wiimote or the SD card for GC play.

I have a pal wii, what if i use a copy of freeloader and then boot my NTSC gamecube backups?

I believe Freeloader only works on NTSC Wii's.

Right, I'm buying this now. I know, I have early adoption sydrome. I can't help it, I'm exited. I'm not even sure about how to put the iso's onto disk, or even where to get them. I hope they have torrents. Oh, can I say that on this site? Well, I'm off to buy it from the site mentioned. I hope it works out for me.

WTF, we don't even see him put the DVD in during the second "proof" YouTube video. WHy? That alone make me believe it's fake, even though I would've believed it was real before.

Why all the doubters? The site admin has seen one working and personally vouches for the products truthfulness.

The website www.wiinja.com is up... Why are so many people crying "fake"?

Hi, I'm trying to order it from Futura. However, when I get to the payment site it says.
Payment for:
FUTURA Videojuegos ©

Is this normal?

*edit* Nevermind, it's ordered.

 

[imgod22222]

sure the site's up, but its SLOW AS HELL! spent at least 4 hours trying to load the schematics jpg.

 

[nloding]

I'm not having any problems with the site. It works fine for me.

I can't wait until the reviews start coming out, because if there's not POT tweaking ... this is really cool. Even though it can't do region free.

I have a launch Gamecube and never had to tweak the laser at all for backups.. Is that the case for all 1st gen Gamecube's?

First of all, I'm not swiss.

Second of all, all I did was buy me a multimeter, open the GC and followed one of the many guides found on the internet. It's so easy an 8-year old can do it.

one bad thing is not many games are over here that are even worth the download let alone purchase, but one game i though looked alright was escape from bug island or whatever the original name was that i can't remember right now. It's not surprise that zelda gamecube is better duh why do you think it sold more maybe the user friendly controls?, but i though the wii version would be better cause of the graphics or whatever they put in it. The good thing about a mod chip is that you can try them all with out worrying too much about cost, because those damn controls cost way too much.
