Wii console (chipped??), what antivirus software you use on your com?

I just want to clarify the wii console.

when people say it's chipped does that mean i can download games from the web? or only means that i can play every countries games and not only PAL.

Another question,

what is the best antivirus software on the market for laptops? What does everyone else use?

thankx-blush

 

if wii is chipped or modded u can play both downloaded games from the web and every countries games... Not sure about the antivirus software though... hope this helps. -sweat

 

Well I believe that Norton or Kapersky are some of the best antivirus software on the market--Just my opinion

 

i thought that chipped means u can play all games... downloaded... and burnt.
and for antivirus. i think it was norton that uses alot of system resources. i use AVG the free version, but it seems to do the job

 

any idea where to download the games from?

i used to use avg free edition. but i don't know if that covered all the new worms out there

 

you should not download

the games are not that expensive.

 

Lol Use Norton, Some Of The Other Ones Are Alright But Some Are Crap Because They Dont Pick Up Bugs, Lol Chipped Wii Eh?

 

ye chipped, means that it will play all games from any country and games that u burn urself. but i think when burning u should burn at slow speeds or something to ensure that the game will run smoothly. u can download games on bittorrent i would assume. i personally don't have a chipped wii so i can't help u with the burning process or anything.

for antivirus, nod 32, norton, zonealarm and kapersky are the best i reckon. i just run nod 32 for my comp as it uses fairly few system resources.

 

my mate told me how wii is hard to chip is that true?

 

well if u don't know what ur doing and have never soldered before then yes it prob is quite hard. but its not a hard procedure is prob the right thing to say.

 

games are cheap yes..but they are tons of crapy games out there for the Wii..the only decent ones are the ones that are for made by nintendo the rest of the 3rd party ones really suck....

i wouldn't do the modifying myself on your wii if you mess up on the soldering you can have a brick wii and have to buy another one. Did that to my PS2 and made it pretty useless :(

@fookjay

the wii is relatively easy compared to the PS2 chip which had 10 to 17 wires to solder the wii key i believe only has 5 points of soldering...but like i said above don't do it unless you are pretty confident in soldering AND can afford to grab another wii if you mess up

 

well if u can afford to grab another wii why would u get a wii key lol.

 

cuz you don't want to pay for all the games...the wii is usually not the espensive part of a game system its the games...the system is a one time flat fee of XXX dollars while the games are a reaccuring cost of 50 for each game

 

thats well cheap, they are £40 here. ffs. never knew they were so cheap in US. rip off england.

 

go chip it lolz

but for real
Europe and the UK is always getting screwed over

look at the prices and launch/releasedates.

even if the dollar was 1 to 1 its still cheaper in the states

 

dang bbes 80US for a WII game...damn....i wouldn't buy wii games for that much considering how crap most of them are...though some of the mario games are kinda worth it but not that much...
