I'm modding my Wii today
« on: October 21, 2007, 10:42:02 am »
I've got a guy coming over a few hours to mod my Wii. Cross your fingers that he doesn't jack it up!  :)

I'm using an official WiiKey so I'm expecting good results.

Does the WiiKey work with dual-layer media?  If not, I'd go with the Cyclowiz.  Nothing is out on dual layer so far, but the original Xbox had loads of games released on dual-layer media and I don't see why the Wii would be any different.

Dual layer is supported by WiiKey firmware 1.9b.

I've rented / played a few.  Depending on your taste, Super Paper Mario, Zelda Twilight Princess, Mario Party 8 have good replay value.  The Mario Party 8 mostly because it's most accessible to my 4 year old, not because it's fantastic.
I did not enjoy Spiderman 3, Cars, Wario Ware, or MySIMS.  Wii Play is also fun if you're trying to enjoy time with a little kid.  Otherwise it gets old fast.
I've not gotten around to Metroid Prime yet but indications are it's fun.

Trauma Center, Paper Mario, Trauma Center, Zelda, Metroid, Trauma Center, Zack and Wiki (haven't played this, but it just came out and the reviewers are going nuts).  Trauma Center 2 is about to be released, as is Super Mario.  If you didn't catch Resident Evil 4 on Gamecube, run, don't walk, to your nearest retailer.  Mercury Meltdown is apparently good, but I've never played it.  Some other good ones are coming for the holidays that escape me at the moment.

Trauma Center, Paper Mario, Trauma Center, Zelda, Metroid, Trauma Center
What's the deal with Trauma Center? I thought it was a repetitive bore. To be honest mario and Zelda can't really impress me either.

I love Resident Evil. Kororinpa is nice too (I say better than Mercury meltdown).
