I'd like to buy a Nintendo Wii. Message me if you would like to sell yours to me.

Hi,

I am selling my wii. It is a 2 month old modded Korean wii. The home screen is in Korean, but it has homebrew, which is in English. Games launched via homebrew are all in English. I have about 20 games that I have burnt myself. You could easily download and burn more if you desire. I have 2 wii remotes and 2 nanchucks as well as a charging stand for the 2 wii remotes (which are fitted with rechargable batteries). I still have the receipt from the guy I bought it from in Yongsan (top floor of Ipark mall) and he said he would provide any after sale service if it is required.

I will sell you everything for 350 000 won.

Wii = 200K
Modchip = 80K
extra remotes = 45K
charger = ?20K
games = ~

Not much of a deal there. I'm looking for a modded wii myself, but we got to work on the asking price.

Hi,

I paid 370 000 for the whole package. The guy charged me 100 000 for the mod chip and 20 000 for the SD card for Gecko. The DVD's I used to burn my 20 games are also the highest quality (needed to ensure that the wii can read them properly), and hence not cheap.

You can mail me at [email protected] I am open to negotiations.

I bought a brand new Wii + modchip + SD cards + extra controller + nunchuk for 328,000 only a couple of weeks ago. It's not that expensive to buy them new. You just have to worry about burning the games.

Just wondering. What do you need the SD cards for?

I'm not sure... something to do with how the mod chips work

Hi,

You put Gecko OS on the SD card. The mod chip allows you to run most games directly from the main menu, but some don't (e.g. Mario Kart and Smash Brothers). That's where Gecko comes in. It allows you to play region locked games.

Like I said, I bought my wii 2 months ago. I don't think I paid too much for it at the time. If the prices have come down, then I will be willing to lower my asking price.
