D2C chipset for WII means WIIKey doesn’t play backups
April 3, 2008
The D2C chipset replaced the old solution for playing backups on Nintendo WII
WIIKey with it’s 5 wire connection was the obvious choice.
But now the Argon chip is available from Infectus which plays all backups fine on D2C chipsets, including Paper Mario which gave wii-key problems. The Argon chip is also flashable and plays Gamecube games.
Theoertically, as the Argon chips fools the DVD ROM drive, it is unaffected by firmware reflashing unless it’s possible to re-flash the DVD Rom drive also. But modified WIIs work fine online as a result.
