Due to it's popularity the Wiikey has been cloned. According to the manufacturer, "Cloned Wiikeys will not accept the official software updates". In contrast to that, there are little to no complains about clones not working. Also, an official software update that does not work with the clones has yet to be released. For now, these clones work exactly as well as the originals, although their build quality may not be exactly up to standard.

==FAQ==
===Will WiiKey mod chip work with Nintendo Wii ONLINE games?===
===Does the WiiKey support online features===
Yes. The Wiikey does not modify the Wii firmware. The WiiKey modifies the responses that the DVD Drive sends to the motherboard when verifying discs authenticity.
Yes. The WiiKey does not modify the Wii's firmware. The WiiKey modifies the challenge responses that the DVD drive sends to the motherboard when verifying a disc's authenticity.
===Does the system need any extra modifications after installing the WiiKey===
No. You do not need to upgrade the firmware as the WiiKey comes shipped with the latest firmware on its microcontroller. What you should do (including clones), is use "Setup Disc v1.3" (available via download) to configure the chip to play games in the correct video mode etc. If your WiiKey is on an older firmware, it's recommended to upgrade to WiiKey v1.99.
===Can GameCube homebrew games (in ISO9600 format) be burned onto regular-sized DVDs and booted on a chipped Wii===
Yes. GameCube homebrew games and apps can burned onto DVDs. However, there are restrictions to this when using Wii System Firmware 3.0 or higher (see below).
===Does Wii firmware 3.0 affect a WiiKey modded Wii unit?===
For the moment, there seems to be no issue after updating to System Firmware 3.0 if you have a WiiKey installed. However, bear in mind that GameCube homebrew discs (including the WiiKey Setup Disc) require 'special patches' to function. The WiiKey had since released an updated version of their disc to accommodate for this.
Wii backups are not affected by this update.
===Is there any special upgrades you have to do after chipping the system===
===What about the Wii Firmware update 4.2, does it affect a Wiikey modded Wii?===
You do not have to upgrade the firmware, as the Wiikey comes shipped with one. What you should (and in the case of clones have to) do though, is use the "Setup Disc Images v1.2" (available via download) to configure your chip to play games in the right video format etc.
For the moment there seems to be no problem updating to Nintendo's Wii firmware 4.2 (using the safe updater in case you use Homebrew apps/channels) if you have a Wiikey installed.
===Can Gamecube Homebrew games be burned onto regular size DVD-Roms and be played on the chipped Wii?===
* It had been tested with WiiKey firmware 1.9S and the update to firmware 4.2 is working fine.
Yes, Gamecube homebrew games and apps can be burned on DVDs. However, special restrictions apply when using Wii firmware 3.0 or higher (see below).
* Later the Wiikey 1.99 beta was applied and the chip keep working fine with backups.
===What about the Wii Firmware update 3.0, does it affect a Wiikey moded Wii?===
===Can the WiiKey run burned Wii homebrew discs===
For the moment there seems to be no problem updating to Nintendo's Wii firmware 3.0 if you have a Wiikey installed.
Yes. Only on firmware 3.0 or below before the [https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Signing_bug 'signing bug'] was patched later in firmware 3.2.
However, special patches have to be applied to gamecue-homebrew discs, including the WiiKey setup disc. The Wiikey team has promised to release an updated version of the disc in the near future.

Latest revision as of 03:22, 16 August 2025
The WiiKey modchip
The WiiKey was announced at the beginning of February, 2007 and shipped at the end of the month. It is one of many modchips available for the Wii and acts as a firmware replacement funneled through the debug serial port - tricking the DVD drive into believing that the backup is in fact legit, much like current Xbox 360 chips do.
Supports all currently available console/drive versions.
Supports D2B chipsets.
Sophisticated (true) update mechanism via DVD (future proof, expect cool features to come).
Direct boot of different NTSC region Wii games/backups on US and JAP consoles (some incompatibilities).
Partial support for NTSC region Wii games/backups on PAL consoles.
Partial support for PAL region Wii games/backups on NTSC consoles.
Boots different region GC games/backups (partially without swapping).
Supports multi-disc games for BOTH Wii and GameCube.
Supports DVD-R / true DVD R and RW support (no bitsetting required!).
Improved readsettings for recordable media.
Built-in audio fix (work in progress).
Supports fullsize 4GB discs for GameCube homebrew.
Stealth mode.
512 byte EEPROM to store configuration.
Quick-solder interface - no wires required.
Unique disc backup application via SD card.
Compact design, best quality components, rock solid high speed controller.
Professional ESD packing.
Recovery mode - Can recover from a bad flash.
Installation
Like its current competitors, the WiiKey is installed onto the Wii's drive either by quicksolder or using six wires. The chip can then be updated through the use of a Setup Disc which can be downloaded from the chip's website.
To open up the console, the following tools are required:
A small prying tool
A small phillips head screwdriver
A tri-wing driver
GBAtemp member crumpster has written an excellent guide to opening and soldering the Wii.
This update fixes the 3X DVD issue and adds NSMB BCA support.

1.9S (PAL, US, JAP) - Firmware patched for Super Smash Bros. Brawl (2008-04-12)
