I brought it back to Ireland (with a new voltage regulator) and plugged it into the PAL tv here. All games and Wii menus are now in black and white.

Could a wireless internet connection affect a mod chip in a Wii? My boyfriend bought a Wii and had a guy attach the mod chip to the motherboard of the Wii so he could play backed up games. He has been able to play backed up games for nearly two months now on his Wii without issue. Recenly, he took his Wii to his father's house while we were out of town. His father has a wireless internet connection. We played Mario Party 8 (a purchased disk, not backed up) for about an hour. Later, his brother-in-law tried playing a backed up disk of The Godfather. The Wii didn't read it or any other game we tried. NOW THE WII WON'T READ ANY DISKS AT ALL! Not even the official Nintendo games I have purchased. Could the wireless connection affected the Wii? Having backed up disks of games you have purchased is perfectly legal, so I don't see how Nintendo could have "busted" him via the internet. (He has tried the install disk for the mod chip several times, and didn't need it right after the mod chip was installed) What could it be? A bad chip? This was an older version of the system. He bought it off his friend from work. He tried the mod chip on a new one and didn't work. Now he has 2 bad Wiis. This has to be the most stupid thing he has EVER DONE!

Wii mod chip question!? Do you really need a mod chip for the wii to be able to play a game you've downloaded and burned? and once you've installed a mod chip to it such as the wii key will you be unable to install updates to your wii?
Can a Wii Mod chip allow the ability to play American games on the Japanese Wii? Well, I couldn't find any Wii's in any stores. So, my parents have a friend who lives in Japan, and they wired the money to them to buy two Wii's: one for me, and one for a friend. But, they (more of my mom) didn't know that the Japanese Wii console couldn't play American games. And we can't read Japanese!! So, will a Mod Chip make the Japanese Wii console allowed to play American games?

I have a Japanese version of SSBB... and I have a mod chip (US Wii)? So I have a mod chip on a US Wii and I just got a Japanese SSBB. Apparently, it doesn't work because after the update it says Invalid system detected or something like that. I have to bet it's the update but at least all my other games still work. (I also have the dual news and weather channels). But I gotta ask, is it also the fact that I'm using a US Wii and not a Japan Wii that's causing the problem? Plus, if I buy an original US retail SSBB, will it work on my US modded Wii? The mod version and mod chip names are confusing, especially since I don't know which I have! PLS HELP!!! P.S., An original retail US version of Super Mario Galaxy definitely works!

How much would my USED Wii cost. (Has a Mod chip in it to play burned games) On eBay? Yeah well my Wii is used but in perfect condition and it also has a chip which can play burned games. It also can play burned Game cube Games. It can play normal games that you can buy from teh store. So its basicly an add on, not taking anything away from original Wii. Also its hard to install, many people tried but broke their Wii but not me =). Anyways I was lookign how much you think it would go for: -Has everything the Wii needs (wires and such) -2 Game Cube Controllers -2 Wii controllers (yes controller + joy stick i have both) -About 20 Burned Wii Games(Mostly the good games) and 1 Game cube game -Wii Sports -Modded,capable of playing burned games saving lots of money - No Box :/ - Been opened since Feburary 2007 how much do you guys think it would go for? thanks

Do you know it is not illegal to 'mod' your wii? At least not in the USA! I personally would not do it myself--but it is NOT illegal. The right to do so was established long ago in our court systems--when VHS recorders first hit the market and it was determined consumers have the right to record TV shows without it being regarded as a violation of copyright laws. Once you buy it, it is your personal property to do with as you wish, as long as you don't use it for illegal purposes. It is legal to "mod" your Wii--to back up and play your own titles that you legitimately own, as well as playing "homebrew" games, created by those who elect to "share" them with the general public. What is not legal is to use your "modded" Wii to copy and run games that you obtained illegally. "Bricking" the system of "modded" consoles? Maybe unintentionally, but if done deliberately? That could actually be regarded as intentional destruction of private property which could be cause for a lawuit. Lasagna and Zisw, A number of people here have claimed that modding is "illegal" and a question on it was recently deleted. I just wanted to clarify that this is simply not true. If the console manufacturers intentionally "bricked" the consoles of those who "modded" them? Well, intentional destruction of private property is illegal and could be grounds for a lawsuit against the manufacturer. Alex, Look 6 questions down and you will see that everyone does NOT know this. And it's been a reoccuring contention on this board. Rooster, Yes, you can buy "mod chips" in regular retail stores for the very reason that they ARE legal to buy and install. None of which is to say I condone, advocate, or recommend doing so. I don't. Magician, I've read the DMCA, and it explicitly excludes USERS. It pertains only to manufacturers and importers, and even then, only under specific limited circumstances. If you are not aware, the DMCA act explicitly discusses and covers VHS devices, however game consoles actually are not even mentioned. Sony lost in the landmark "Sony vs. Stevens" case in Austrailia, which ruled "mod chips" do not infringe on copyright laws. Sony did win a case against a "mod-chip" company, but that was because the defendent had willfully violated a court order to turn over proprietary information, and refused to stop even after they had signed a consent agreeing to. The court also found against an Italian company, "mod chip" company, but this was because they had not used legal means to obtain certain proprietary information used to make their "mod chips". Irregardless, none of this pertains to the end user, which the act explicitly exclludes. Hilpoof, Microsoft made similar arguments and was found guilty of violating antimonopoly laws. that "slippery slope" slants both ways. I'm opposed to piracy but value personal freedom rights far more. And I've had computers fry and a neighbor who broke an entire caseful of my CDs when he stumbled and fell on them. It was ok though--I had backups! That I can't protect my rather extensive--and expensive--gaming library the same way without the need of having to "mod" my console is very wrong. Thanks for your comments!
Wii overseas, no mod chip? Ok, this seams stupid to ask but, is there any way to unlock my Wii to play overseas games WITHOUT a mod chip.

WII - Japanese Console with Mod Chip? I inherited a WII console from China - it has the Japanese Menu. I know its modded because it plays burned games. I need some simple answers: 1) How do I tell which mod chip is in my unit without opening it? Can I safely assume its one, kind? If so which one is it likely to be. 2)Is it safe to connect to the internet? To my knowledge, it never has been. I've heard about automatic updates making the WII unusable. Since all the menus are Japanese, I don't know what is going on. Can someone please explain.

can i play online with a wii modchip? i live in europe, but just bought my wii in the states (i'm here for the summer). i thought that it wouldn't matter since i can mod the wii to play european games, and the wii doesn't have any real online gameplay anyway. and then i found out about Mario Strikers Charged, which gamespot says is especially fun playing multiplayer online (http://www.gamespot.com/wii/sports/mariostrikerscharged/review.html?sid=6175854&tag=topslot;title;1). now, i could live without this one game, but i'm worried i might end out missing out on a lot of the wii's potential... is there any way mod chips would make it okay to play online european games on an american console?
