Weee.... my motion plus and Wii Sports resort has arrived!

It's really cool, especially canoeing. And it's tiring as hell. Now I know why people say Wii gives them a workout. At first I though they are really just super lazy bums...but wow, it's really tiring after some time.

i don think u can find 7xx anymore.

New Wii cannot be modded anymore for the time being. Therefore older batch price is getting higher since the stock is lesser already

can anyone tell me what is the difference between korea and japan wii?
and what is the advantages of choosing us ori set against korea or japan wii set?

if u buying unmodded, go for US wii

japan wii, play japanese games, and can't play US games. unless u can read japanese, or in love with some japanese games that u can't get in US, then go for it. but if u not sure, go US.

korea wii ah, don't want to get there la, but they are all modded la. usually people buy korea wii to play pirate games (please raise your hand if u not that person)

just choose us wii lah. trust me you won't go wrong. if u want to play pirate, just choose any one, coz it won't matter.

i read that wii can play dvd movie but need to install Mplayer and DVDX (?)
anyone knows precisely how to do this coz it says theres a chance of the wii becoming "kaput. " if done wrongly

imho, you should use a dedicated DVD player to watch DVD movies

my black JAP wii ( soft mod ) :

1. can the console play other region games such as US , UK ? i mean genuine games which is from diffrent region.

gamers, memandangkan soft mod, patutnya boleh kot. No reason it shouldn't be.

Can modded console play original game? Planning on buying modded console with original game.

I like to try out the game first before deciding if its worth purchasing. Since Wii does not have any platform for demo.

in general can, with exceptions here and there. i also got this block buster movie i think i am going to love. i will also test first before i buy.

Mind elaborating on the exceptions?

Yes can play original game in modded wii

Can definitely play original game in modded wii but it may also break ur modded firmware if ori games has newer firmware update.

on the hard modded consoles, some games won't run coz the chip does not aupport that game (e.g. wiikey). it usually happen in new games. but usually the chip manufacturer is fast to provide a firmware update to resolve the problem. For example at one time everybody panicked that original Super mario Bros Brawl cannot work on modded wiis. But after the wiikey manufacturer release their firmware update, the problem was resolved. So in the future, for newer games this might happen again, so u might need to wait for the firmware update to resolve it. but i personally think is rare nowadays coz game makers want to make their original games run on modded wiis. so they are careful to make it compatible with modded wiis.

As for softmod wiis, i never heard of any problems with originals

Hey guys , mind telling me can I play guns game like resident evil without using the nintendo gun stick? i dunno how to name it anyway.

Yes you can play with just the wiimotes.

everygame can use wiimotes right? even fifa 09 can? wow...

From my knowledge. Wii hard modded, it is abit troublesomes. Since it always update and keep on changing new stuff. So I recommend soft mod. easier and cheaper. lol
And also althought sometimes they mention is soft mod but there are some possibilities to soft mod + hard mod. because of the board problem.

Errr Fifa 09 yes u can play with Wiimotes but for my personal experienced , its tough to play with wiimote on fifa09 or any soccer games.

Im using Classic controller to play.

updating is not a problem on hardmod if u playing a same region game. but i wonder why people like to talk about modding. its a game console u know. to play games. if u want to learn about computer enginerring, then go buy a pc.
