dal sito:


Wiip is a hardware mod for the Wii system that allows you to boot backup discs. This mod works by utilizing a cheap and simple microcontroller that communicates with the serial port of the Wii's hybrid DVD drive and overrides certain parts of the media's data stream. Allowing you to do all sorts of wonderful things (like boot backup discs).

The most important part of this project, is that it is open source! In addition to releasing the Wiip chip, on this page you will soon be able to download the PCB schematics, Wiip firmware and documentation! We hope by creating this project, other users will make modifications to our code for newer updates in the future (if needed).

The current features of Wiip are:

  • Actually upgradeable! Device is bundled with an easy to use programming cable.

  • 20 MHz AVR microcontroller with 2KB of EEPROM (SMD type)

  • Customizable (via open source code)

  • Boots Wii games (DVD+R / DVD-R media)

  • Boots GC games and homebrew

  • AudioFix (naturally)

  • On board DIP switch (enable/disable mod, enable/disable stealth)

  • Works on DMS / D2A chipsets (sorry, we haven't worked on D2B yet)

The Wiip is going to be available for a mere $20 retail (and that includes shipping!) and will appear shortly in our online shop. Or the schematics, code, and software will be available so you can make one for less than $10! How is that for freedom?

Estimated shipping date 2/27/2007
