Soft Mod Wii Vs Hard Mod Wii
Before I show you how you can get your own soft mod wii, let’s discuss the difference between softmodding and hardmodding.
A soft mod is the preferred method of video game modding. When you soft mod your wii or any other device, you are modifying it using software. There are many advantages to doing it this way.
The primary advantage is that it’s relatively easy to do. Even though you can make a mistake and wind up with a Nintendo Wii brick, there are enough tutorials where you probably won’t have to.
Also, if there are updates to the software it’ll be fairly easy to update your modded wii also.
But there are some dangers.
Like I’ve already mentioned, you may very mess the whole thing up and render your video game console useless.
Also, Nintendo and the other video game manufacturers are also updating their firmware to detect the latest modding software and hacks.
And finally, modding your wii, even a soft mod, will void your warranty.
A hard mod is when you perform surgery on your wii.
That’s when you actually change your video games hardware. This it typically done by opening up your wii and installing a mod chip.
Personally, I don’t recommend this method. The chances of making a mistake and destroying your Wii are just too great. One little slip up, and you’ve got yourself a three hundred dollar plastic brick.
Soft Mod Wii Tutorial
Well now that you know the difference between a soft mod and a hard mod, let me show you how to do a soft mod. If at any time, you feel this all too complex, you may want to get this detailed yet easy-to-understand product that will have your Wii unlocked in minutes.
The steps to soft modding your Wii are straightforward:
First you download letter bomb. This is going to put Homebrew on your Wii. Download letterbomb to an SD card, then load it onto your Wii.
Then you install and activate Homebrew on your Wii.
Then you download Hack Pack which gives you a few more pieces of software to improve your gaming experience. Install Hack pack onto your Wii using the same procedure as Letterbomb.
Once all the software is installed, your next step is to configure the settings in Homebrew. There are lots of options, but the most important thing to remember is that you don’t want Nintendo rendering your console useless with a future update.
Therefore, make sure you adjust your settings to prevent automatic updates.
After that, you’re all set up.
