Translation from the Spanish site:
It was time question. From the conference of Tmbinc it was rumored that several groups were working in modchip for the Wii console. Then, already we have the first announcement of the hand of the Team Ninja. The Wiinja will allow to as much load backups of Wii as of GameCube, but only of the region of the console. The copies will be able to be recorded in DVDs current, being valid the program rawdump to make them. In a moment you will have more news.

I have a question regarding that video. The system date shows 17-12 yet the Wii News channel icon looks like it has been updated which only happened today. Mine had a different icon until today. Now it matches the one in the movie.
Was the European place holder icon different than the North American?

Nope, I haven't updated mine yet (I'm from France) and the icon doesn't look that way.
The video must have been done today (or maybe yesterday?, forgot)

I disagree, they had to program the chip to make it work on the wii, so its fair that they are selling it for a high price in the beginning. but come on, 40 euro thats not even the price of a game :D

And how I know team ninja they did it poorly. I will wait for another team to bring out a modchip. According to gamefreax.de there are severel working on one at the moment.
Btw. it basically works the same way the XenoGC did so they are building it on their work. It shouldn't be to difficult to do that. Certainly not 40€-difficult.

The chip in all the photos looks like a standard IC with a sticker on it. If this indeed works all one needs to do is get a chip with the same logic gates or architecture and map the pins respectively. I imagine someone soon is going to figure out what logic is needed to be done on the 5 pins that are being soldered to, but I can tell you right now that 1 of them is going to be VCC +X amount of voltage to power the device and another will be a low potential (ground) the other pins must have some set of logic, but besides that I'm quite sure its simple and they seem to be charing way to much for it

well this you say may be true, my biggest concern is i have never hear of the seller, so we just w8 for a better know reseller to anounce it.

Just because it looks simple does not mean it is.
It is most likely a PIC chip
http://www.seattlerobotics.org/encoder/may97/picchip.html
Most PIC's can be programmed then fuses burned so the only way to extract the code is by cutting the chip and using special tools to extract the code. I had a PIC chip reverse enginered several years ago it was a couple grand, now it's probably easier and cheaper.
If it is a PIC, the code will be extracted.
This is not some 74LS simple gate type chip like you suggest.
Very similar to Gen 1 Playstation 1 mod chips. Took people around a 1.5 years to get the PIC code released back then though.

Wow, Ninjamod is first out of the gate. I'll pass on buying this and wait for another chip to come out. The last chip I got from them was a dud. NinjaGC or whatever it was, great support, had to "beg" around for install diagrams lol and installed it 4 times using alternate points with help from one of the makers, determining it was a dud they still haven't sent me a new chip. No thanks, I've "given" them enough money...

The code is fairly easy, all info was given in the readme.txt of the Linux Wii Drive Tool, they probably used that same info seeing the timing and they're using the exact same pads. I doubt they bug tested the code, they never did that with their previous products either.
Nice to see some guys release info for free so another team can use it and charge €39.95 for a €1.00 chip.

Did the Linux Wii Drive tool actually contain any code besides the program that lets you access the firmware? My understanding was that program let people view, read and write tho the firmware, but didn't offer a firmware alternative that allowed for backup disks to be read by the Wii.

Yeah right because most people need more features then playing *cough* backups. I recommend waiting for the first successfull installation by a reliable source, then buy one instead of waiting for features that may never come. The only question is if it can be reverse engineered so we can write the firmware changes ourselves.

Yeah , there are the same Team :)
If the price weren't so outragous, I'd get it. But nearly 50$ for a simple PIC chip, no thanks. I'll wait for someone to clone it.
Infact, look at this 8-pin PIC chip here:
http://194.201.138.187/epages/Store.storefront/?ObjectPath=/Shops/Store.TechSupplies/Products/MIC002
I'm not sure if the price is Euros or GBP, but either way the chip costs less than 3 US Dollars. That's right, less than 3 bucks, and they want nearly 50$ for it. Hopefully someone with more sense will release a similar mod on a PIC chip and sell it for a more reasonable amount. Early on I could see them asking 30$ at most, anything higher is ridiculus. And if they straight clone it, they should aim for the 20$ range.

if you dont want to pay more then $30 its your choice. But alot people will gladly support team ninja for their hard work done on the wii. And yes im one of them and come on, $60, thats not even the price of a wii game.

You don't understand that the "Team Ninja" Ninja mod guys use the freely provided works of people like tmbinc to make "their" products. So don't act like they invented something new on their own. They are using a 3$ chip to program and then sell to you for 35 Euroes (which is somewhere around 45$usd) and that's pretty excessive if that doesn't include shipping from far away.
Don't say they put any "hard work" into it. The hardwork was already done for them. Just like the GameCube, all the hard work was done and the information was public. All I'm saying is you are helping them get quite a large profit by buying something that's phsyical worth is next to nothing. If you can wait, you are better off doing so and maybe you can get a Wii mod for 20$.
But you're right that if you don't mind paying around 45$+shipping then why not.

01-30-2007, 02:38 PM
tmbinc didnt release anything, he only provided some information but he did not explain how to build your own modchip.
Are other solutions to be expected in the future? I'm talking more along the lines of firmware hacks and such?
I'm asking because I don't know ánything about the modchip scene, haven't soldered anything for 10 years and am generally more at ease with something that can easily be updated.
Or is there really no way around modchips?
Also, for modchips or firmware hacks, what do you think would happen if Nintendo releases an update to protect the Wii from either of these two? Would their features get cancelled at worst, or might it actually brick the Wii?
idunder
01-30-2007, 03:19 PM
Jeez, those that complain about the price really must be cheap!
You can get the other mod for 42.00 shipped or this mod for around 52.00 shipped.
That is the cost of like 1 game!
Regardless of how "simple" this chip is, it does the job it is sold to do.
I love how so many claim that it's just a PIC with HEX code on it. I bet NO one that has commented on this has ever programmed a PIC in their life.(I mean write code to circumvent something like this with injection, I do not mean copy another PIC)
Much less reverse engineered one. If someone takes the time/effort/money to reverse engineer the Wiinja, it will most likely be to make a profit themselves, not freely give the code away. The PSX1 first gen modchip is the only modchip that I know of that was PIC based that someone released public code to program your own PIC's with. And that took a very long time.. Like over 1.5 years. In that 1.5 years like 4 or 5 places had reverse engineered the original and copied the work and sold it for a little less... Never giving the code out.
If your holding out for homebrew on the Wii, then these first mod chips should be of no interest. Personally, I could care less on homebrew. (In Wii mode, GC mode is fine for what already is out there)
We already have it on the Xbox, The Wii is not going to do more then a Gen 1 Xbox.
Special homebrew Wii controlled apps? I can live without that.
Now homebrew on a 360, that would be awesome. Or even the PS3 if they were lower in price. High def media center, that is the next great thing.
Never gonna happen on a Wii.

if it can be dumped useing with an eeprom programer I am game but need directions but sence a PIC is not a rom but some sort of microcontroller I dont think thats how you dump/wright to one so I will be no help but then again they must have some sort of rom bulit in in order to funtion so maybe

not gonna do that perhaps dumping the wii dvd drive's ram would be the better idea as it sould be useable for the purpose of copying the chip
in thery the microcontroller in the pic simpley wrights to the drives ram the same way the computer hookup dose so perhaps this will be all that is needed

i have my buddie poping this :) he said the chip will not be a problem easy and fast

i belive he is refuring to installing the chip ether that or he is a jackass as apperintley dumping pic's is very hard

I want someone to stress test these chips....
"I've been playing for 3 hours and it's great" :p
another thing how is this chip working... is it just bypassing the startup checks?

Here is a tutorial how to deprotect a 12C508 PIC

you say "easy and fast" :)
Odds are you will go through 3 or 4 PIC's before your successful using that guide.
None of the people here complaining about price seem altruistic enough to me to be the guinea pigs for dumping the code to provide to the community.
I am sure someone will dump it and share the code, probably will be awhile though.

Never said easy or fast... just posted the guide
to pop a pic chip will be fast but how fast will it come on the web who know. i know that when i grab the code off the chip its not going on the web. lol i will be installing in my boxes screw buying more

Sorry, took your guide with potsmokes claims.
Either way I bet potsmoke is truly all smoke.

you can pop the pic easy. if i get the chips and pop them before code is on the web i might just send it out to all.

so he was talking about dumping the chip in that case I unerace my jackassed comment
my bubby said that he can make flying cows that crap tacos so say goodbye to taco bell as now when you want one all you must do it look to the sky and grab a net
ok if that is true tell us what is your EZ prosess?

he will be diping with acid then removing the fuse and all that good stuff he said its a easy task for a person that has done them many times. but then thats what happends when u pay some one to do stuff. cost of the work to get the chip dumped $400 us cash not a bad price
peppers
01-30-2007, 11:24 PM
so your methade is paying someone else $400 to do it yeh that is real ez unless you have to actually work for a liveing

01-30-2007, 11:27 PM
lets see if you pay the guy 400 to pop it order 100 blanks program them and then do 100 mods for $150 us each thats way more then the $400 u spent to pop it

Well Potsmoke claims he will be "popping" the data off the chip and giving it out freely after he is done. Good for you if that is the case. :)
I have personally delt with pro's that do this for a living and it's not "easy" it's time consuming. But by no means is it impossible. I can come on here and say anything is easy.
How many hackers out there spend time reverse engineering the modchips then give the code away compared to hacking the consoles themselves... Not many if at all.
Talk is VERY cheap, time will only tell.
Meanwhile, I am sure everyone will wait in anticipation Potsmoke for you to release the PIC code for the wiinja.
My guess is we will NEVER see anything released from Potsmoke.

i'm a sharing person and love to help all out but when people say that its never going to happend or that person is a lier that ticks me off. once i get the code i will upload to the megauploads and all that great stuff. till then lets just hope some one sends it out before that

i have the latest willem programmer which is meant to be compatable.Anyone know a good guide please

if you have to ask its too hard to do it involves useing acid to eat off the epoxy to get down to the UV sencitive parts of the chip then covering up the parts that contain the data and leaveing the rest exposed them putting it under a UV lamp for a wile onley after that is it dumpable

u dont need to use a UV light , thats only if you have that access to that not most people will have a UV light to do that. there are ways to do it with out the uv light

wether it be a UV lamp, the sun or whatever in order to do it you do need a sorce of UV light, most poeple dont have acid laying around ether and I dout anybody that can actually pull such a prosess off dose not have a UV lamp
btw pic's dont have fuses
I still think dumping the wii dvd drive's ram figure out what paticular code was injected and then makeing your own ram patcher to inject it would the the ezest way to revirse engineer the chip
