Things You Need To Do To Softmod For Wii

By Chris Smart


Those that own the popular Wii can often be seen doing a softmod for Wii on their console. By learning how to softwood Wii with a software program, you can do exciting new things with your console that a locked console cannot do. You will be able to play music and DVD's, along with imported games. You will welcome the opportunity to play backup games and homebrew.

When you unlock your Wii you will open up a whole world of gaming and fun that you never knew existed! You will be able to play backed up Wii games. Regardless to the region that the game is, you will be able to play it. You will be able to use your Wii to play all of your old favorites from the Sega Genesis system along with the Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo.

You can look on the Internet for one of the many Wii's that are for sale, already modded. If you do, you will find out exactly how outrageous the prices are! For the cost of most of them you can easily buy a new Wii and soft mod it yourself. Some of the overpriced Wii's that will be shipped to you already modded are even used models. Why pay for a console that is used? You might opt to purchase a mod chip that you can install into your Wii. The installation of the chip is a hard mod that will void your warranty. It will also cost you more then you need to pay to soft mod your system.

By learning how to soft mod your Wii you will find it is inexpensive. The only thing you have to buy is an SD card. So why not save your money and buy something you really want, like a new accessory for your Wii?

You will need to begin by buying an SD card. You can find them pretty cheap at most electronic stores or department stores that carry electronics. You will need one to download some software from the Internet to add to your Wii. The softmod will be installed to the SD card.

Search the Internet for the software you need to install the mod to your SD card. The software you use will help you to unlock your Wii console safely. This is important because you do not want it to end up being a doorstop when you are done. Be sure to follow all of the instructions carefully to prevent damage.

Once the software has downloaded onto your SD card, insert the card into the SD slot on the Wii console. Turn on the console and, once the menu pops up, follow the prompts on the screen and in less than 1/2 an hour you will have a modded console.

Learning to softmod for Wii is a much simpler process and takes about 30 minutes. If you choose to hard mod your Wii, you can spend several hours soldering and screwing. When you learn how to softwood Wii, it will not void your warranty like the hard mod will. A softmod is easily reversible so that if you want to revert back to your old Wii version, it can be done, risk free.
