    Not at the moment, they have a location in TEXAS which is the best location with the best installer in texas...

    I hope ive helped you out, i will try to answer any other questions you have when i have time. I would recommend shipping with UPS or FEDEX GROUND shipping should be around $12 - $15 depending on how much insurance you add.

    sorry if i didn't type it clearly but i ment that they was charging $95 for for the chip and installation. So it will be $95 for Chip and Installation, Both for $95. so do you think its worth it?

    Johncchc: I would recommend UPS, FEDEX ground or DHL Ground... a more reliable better traceable courier... It will also save you money on the shipping.


    n0n0_no: I suppose its okay but you can get it for $79.99 + shipping at: http://www.xbox-modchips.com/wii-mod-installations.htm

    They are an official WiiKEY reseller that has been in business for many years.

    Just make sure to enter coupon code: 10off
    when checking out...

    I had a hard time finding my wii too. I tried almost all the stores here in Toronto but no luck, I just got lucky two weeks ago and found it at Costco.

    Forgive me for my ignorance. I was wondering if I do install Wiikey, In the future, can Nintendo upgrade their games or something and make my modification to my Wii useless. In other words, I wont be able to play backups anymore.

    Does anyone know if the mod chip installation messes with the online gaming feature. I know there is atleast one online-capable game on the market, so someone should know. Like will you get banned from online gaming if it is modded, like in the case of the xbox?

    Have any UK subscribers had their WiiKey installed by Modchipfitters at http://www.modchipfitters.com, they offer a complete service supply and install for about £80. The service seems fully guaranteed but wondered if anyone has had good or bad experience of them?

    It is possible but unlikely, theres no wqay to know. For now its fine to get your wii modded, and for now Nintendo has shown no signs of trying to stop it.

    @d2leo
    Yes online games work fine, ive had many fun hours of Mario Strikers!, its a backup copy and works fine - there are loads of threads about this issue so try and search next time.

    I can get you a wii up here in canada and ship it down to you... a few places have full stock now.

    I imagine they will have wii's in your area soon as well.

    Hi Everyone,

    We have started a small info site for the WiiKey mod chip, below is the link to the site.

    www.wiikeyguide.com

    Here you will find information on telling which version WiiKey you have, there are now currently 4 revisions of the PCB in the market. Latest is v4 with PFT soldering pads.

    Also a clone guide helping you determine if you were sold an original WiiKey or not.

    An install guide section with guides on new models such as the D2C, which www.wiikey.cn have not added to their site yet.

    We also have a shame section where we will list companies that we have proof they are selling clone WiiKey as the Original item.

    Hope you find the site useful.
