Revision as of 07:56, 4 April 2008 by 91.32.184.237 (talk) (Splitted Wiikey tabled into 1.9g and 1.9s thanks to broken Audio Fix of WiiKey 1.9s - updated the Wasabi information)


No true modchips exist yet, as all current chips operate by modifying the DVD drive in some fashion. Until that time, Drivechips have shown great promise in enabling many new features of the Wii.

Presented here is a list of currently released drivechips and their features.
