Choosing the Right ModChip for your Version of Nintendo Wii

Modifying your Nintendo Wii to load CDs with a different regional code, backup CDs copied from originals, and third-party programmed homebrew, you need to either physically put in a wii modchip into your consoles drive or run a sofmod through a software hacking program.  Sofmod through wii hacking (through twilight hack) can also be used in modding your console through SD cards that are loaded in your console.  Wii hacking programs like the twilight hack and the homebrew channel are safe ways for wii mod.  The twilight hack uses a pre-saved game to cause a system crash to enable the wii hack to run a loader that will allow any application to run on your console.  The homebrew channel is a sofmod channel that can be downloaded and installed to load and run homebrew applications.

Wii mod can also be done through the installation of wii mod-chips.  Wii mod-chips are electronic devices that you attach to your console’s drive to allow your console to work around restrictions pertaining to regional coding and copy protection.  There are several versions of the wii modchip.      Choosing the right modchip for your version of the Nintendo Wii depends on the version of the chipset you have.  The wrong match can be potentially harmful for your console.  Installing wii mod-chips is easier with chip clips that allow for what is called as solderless modding.
