how do you chip a wii?? is it a case of downloading software??
blonde, January 2009
either have a wiiky chip instaled or try this soft mod,google for var s/ware reqd,
Step 1 - Preparation
Before you embark on your quest to soft mod your console, you'll need the following -

A Wii Console
Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess (Wii Version!)
An SD Memory card (anything from 32Mb up to 2GB)
An SD card reader


First of all, download this file
backuplauncher_0.3_gamma.zip
and extract it to your HD.

Format your SD card in the FAT format. Copy the contents of the "backuplauncher_0.3_gamma" directory to the root of the SD card

Step 2 - Installing the Twilight hack

Put your SD card into your Wii.

1)Now, Start by playing Zelda if you haven't already and save the game. For some reason you are unable to copy over a save game unless you've played it before. So play, save, exit to Wii menu.

Open up the data management screen and delete your newly created save game. Then, whilst still in data management open up your SD card and copy the correct "twiglight hack" save game for your region onto your Wii.
rzdp = Europe
rzdj = Asia
rzde = USA
(Note - some Wii's won't see the save game. If this is the case, whack the SD back in the PC, find the data.bin file, right click and then tick the archive bit).

Once the save is transferred, load Zelda again, and load the twilight hack save game. When it loads, run forward and speak to the man infront of you. This will now proceed with the installation of the homebrew channel (as you put that in the root of your SD card, right?).

Now you have the homebrew channel as a permanent fixture on your Wii desktop.

Installing the loader

Open the homebrew channel, and open the CIOS installer. This needs the wii to be connected to the internet (wireless or wired) as it downloads the required files. Once installed (takes around 5-10 minutes) you can run the Backup Loader but you don't want to have to go into the Homebrew channel every time you want to load a backup so read on.

______________________________________________________________________________________

Installing the Backup Loader channel

Open the Homebrew Channel and load the WAD manager.
Press A
Then A again
Now select the BackupChannel_0.3.wad and press +
Press A to confirm installation.
