Have you ever heard the term "mod chip" before? If you've done any digging into how to copy wii games, then I'd be willing to bet that you have.
Maybe you haven't heard of one though. In that case, a mod chip is simply a type of computer chip that you can insert into the interior of a Wii console. The benefit is that it unlocks additional functionality that Nintendo corporation didn't want you to have. You can then do things such as
-Play burned games -Play games from other countries -Play games off of the homebrew channel
Installing a mod chip can present some problems, though. Before we look further at mod chips, I want to briefly touch on these. By installing a mod chip so that you can copy wii games, first realize that you are irrevocably voiding your warranty. Secondy, realize that these chips can be a relatively expensive solution, sometimes costing into the hundreds of dollars. Finally, they can be a bit tricky to install, requiring at least *some* technical know-how.
What Are the Two Kinds of Mod Chips
I'll elucidate them briefly. The first type has been around almost since the Wii was launched. These are the type of chips that you have to actually sodder on to the motherboard with a soldering gun. To accomplish this, you must crack your Wii open, sodder it on with heat, and then do a complete firmware upgrade.
This type of chip is the more affordable variety of the two at present.
The second type of mod chip is the brand new, "clip on" type. The great thing about these is that no soldering knowledge is required. You do still have to open up your Wii (thereby voiding your warranty) and upgrade the firmware, but the installation of the chip itself is a snap.
The downsides of the clip on style chips are that they are more expensive, and they can sometimes come loose inside the Wii.
