Anyone orderd a chip yet?

[shabbaranks]

As the title states... I am debating where to order mine from but I am gonna go for the cyclowiz rather than the wiinja...

 

[torrentulla]

i will rather wait until it support imort games

The Wiinja looks just like a 80pence 12c50X chip.
and for 35Euro is a bloody rip off

 

[digidude]

i agree it looks like a pic chip

as long as itll play backups ill have one, but not at that price

 

[IANB]

can these pics be read on an elvis.
If so could we not clone our own?

 

[digidude]

im all for getting a few of us together and 'chipping' in (lol, taxi) to see if thats possible, i wouldnt know how to do this though, but if we got 6 of us together itd only be £3 each

You cant read these with an Elvis, if you had the code you could programme them with one. To reverse engineer one of these would be very difficult, but I have read on another forum that the source code will probably be freely available on the internet. But for the sake of £25 (less than a game) I am willing to buy a chip

what happens if the chip cannot be cloned ,who will keep the original ??

 

[mjrrenegade]

I'd sooner wait until my 12 months guarantee is up before messing about with my wii's insides! Plus there will be loads to choose from by then.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the chip was cloning it.

There are at least two ways which might work:

Have the chip uncapped and erase the code protect fuse.

If it outputs the same data every time it should be possible to use a logic analyser to record it and get the timing diagram. Craft some sourcecode to do the same thing...

carnt it just b red with a labprog+ save data then write it back to a blank chip...just a thought ...?????

 

[Spectre]

I have a Labprog+ but I imagine that it still won't read code-protected PICs!

The way to do it is a black-box analysis with state analyser.

wiinja is fairly useless as it only works on some wii's

the cyclowiz is the best bet atm + its upgradable via dvd

 

[shabbaranks]

I too have read on a forum that people are saying the Wiinja is useless. This stems from a spanish site where people have mis-interpreted the messages. There isnt anything wrong with the chip the problem was the person hadn't soldered the chip properly.

 

[cyber2k1]

should get my wiinja on thurs i think, so let u all now how i get on,

 

[shabbaranks]

where did you order it from mate? and how much was it to get it shipped to this country? Cheers

 

[hollow]

there is a uk stockist of this chip

cheapmod

they stock it

 

[shabbaranks]

Ahh yeah he stocks the Wiinja, I am gonna go for the cyclowiz or the wiikey

 

[gazzer]

cyclowiz are available from the 12th look easy to fit also i have seen them on a site today.

 

[shabbaranks]

Looking at the prices and availability it would probably be cheaper to buy them from America as they are around £30 in this country.
