that's a pretty good price. it means that install is only $40... great for noobs like me that know nothing about soldering. what sort of guarantee does kenneth give that he won't fuck up your wii?

it's really really easy to install.. if they've been doing ps2 and stuff in the past.. this is a piece of cake.. although i'm not sure if they use the quick solder point on the chip or use wires.. i used wires myself on mine and my friends wii because i can remove the modchip later on ~ the quick solder point is a hassle to remove the modchip

It's Nintendo focusing on one thing and one thing only: enjoyable games.

It worked for the DS, that's for sure

but it's nice to have the wii can also play DVD so you don't need to hook up 2 things in 1 TV. It's not a big deal, but it's nice to have.

they use the wire method. Got mine modded from them, so far I tried Cooking Mama, Pokemon, and Zelda and gameplay (speed, quality etc) is flawless.

Got my wiikey for $50, but I install the chip myself. However the guy I got off from quote me $85 with installation but I prefer installing it myself.

I could be wrong if he changed the prices recently, but last time I went (yesterday), COMPC was asking $100, but a few stores down, some other store was asking $120 incl. installation.

Im assuming that typeskk got his wiikey in richmond instead of burnaby, because it is relatively cheaper there, but not worth the time spent driving down there depending on where one lives.

so what they mean by stealth mode is that it's virtually invisible to any online modchip detection by Nintendo? probably self explanitory but i wanna make sure if anyone's had problems with this.

I also email a guy in craglist that is doing the install + chip for $60 before I get my wiikey regarding which chip he is using . He replied saying that he is not sure, it should be the Wiinja. So I assumed that might be a clone Wiinja chip ?

i was considering diy too but then i realized i need to buy a better soldering iron, solder, tri wing screwdriver... and time. so where did you find this 85 dollar deal?
