Wiinja reviewed!

Hey all,

Just popping in to say I've finished my review of the Wiinja

.

"The Wiinja is a small PIC chip that connects to the Wii's DVD drive. The chip (should) also allow(s) running GameCube homebrew (by booting SDload from a DVD, which in turn can start an application/game that can read from the DVD drive) such as the MFE distro of GameCube linux (which requires a DVD). As with the GameCube however you will need good DVD media (or possibly tweak your POT if possible). Installation should be fairly simple (though disassembling your Nintendo Wii, and soldering to the small solder points, could prove a problem for unexperienced users) as it only requires soldering of 5 wires (see below). Let 's see how the chip performs!"

Cheers,
Scorpei

It does'nt play Wii games thou, although Wiinja is crap cause it has no real support for the Wii - does'nt allow import Wii games to play, it's for the GameCube side of Wii which is pointless!

What are you talking about ?

The winja just like the Cyclowiz allows you to play backup Wii games as long as they are the same region as your Wii.
