Wiikey - Is this the mod chip for you?
Is the WiiKey the right Nintendo Wii Mod chip for you? Let's do some comparisons and find out if it is.
As it always is with each new mod chip released, the manufacturers always have some reasons to state that quite likely, THEIR chip is better than any other chip before it. This has been the case since the days of the original PSX mod chips. One chip was better than the other chip, and then the next chip was better than both of those other two chips put together.
I suppose it could be argued that one chip perhaps has some features that another chip does not. And quite likely, these additional features are of no consequence to most gamers. As gamers, we want a chip that is easy to install and just plain works.
There are really no extra or value added features that REALLY differentiate the say the WiiKey from the Cyclocwiz chip. Certainly not in terms of playing our games at all. We want a chip that will load and boot all the types of games we throw at it. And this, thankfully, is the same accross the board. All the Nintendo Wii Mod chips seem to just load each game, without any trouble or fussing about whether or not the game is an Gamecube backup copy of our original game or a backup copy we have of our Nintendo Wii Game.
To get a good, albeit brief idea, which shows quite clearly that there are no real differences, one simply has to look at the list of features for both the WiiKey and the Cyclowiz chips... We've listed the features and functions for both below.
