I think Nintendo will one day find a way of stopping mod chips with out effecting un-modified consoles.
You never know one day you might just end up with brick next to your TV.

I think you should consider the pros and cons by yourself, and how they apply to your circumstances.

yea true, thats wat got me.
Some people can be bothered to download gigabytes of games.. look up game lists for the Wii mod to make sure it wont brick your Wii, update the firmware (which i dont know how to do :/ )
and just be careful constantly..
that wasnt for me, i couldnt be stuff doing half that stuff. I only got it for the 4 free games i got from the US i really wanted to play, but then i got over them so there was no use for it.

Having your modchip in your Wii is great for getting some games earlier than Australia. At the moment, your Wii can only play games from Australia. Some games like Super Paper Mario, where it has only just been released, 8 months after America. I was lucky to score myself a copy of the game the first week it was released in America.

I updated my wii last night and the diclaimer said you can power off your wii and not do the update, or do the update and if there are any modifications it may brick it.
By the time i get to modding mine, ill probably buy another one have one modded and one not

Attention Deficit Disorder - ADD

Thats what those kids have who need to take methamphetamines to concerntrate. It makes them slow down so they can pay attention.
