Third Party review on Cyclowiz with v3.0 Upgrade

[Zeus]

Crumpster has posted up a review on the Cyclowiz following the release of the v3.0 software upgrade. You can read his review at <A href="http://webpages.charter.net/mbcrump/crumpsters_cyclowiz_review/" target="_blank">charter.net</a>. The positives include 100% compatibility and direct boot of NTSC/PAL titles without the need for a patch. The only negative he has jotted down is that they left fans waiting too long. You can buy the CycloWiz from <A href="http://www.divineo.cn/php/affstart.php?affcode=66623&prod=wii-cwz" target="_blank">Divineo.cn</a> / <a href="http://www.divineo.com/php/affstart.php?affcode=66623&prod=dd-wi-cycwiz2" target="_blank">Divineo.com</a> / <a href=" http://www.modchipstore.com/customer/product.php?productid=16429&partner=65565" target="_blank">Modchipstore.com</a> / <a href="http://www.divineo.de/php/affstart.php?affcode=66623&prod=wii-cyclowizz" target="_blank">Germany</a> / <A href="http://www.divineo.es/php/affstart.php?affcode=66623&prod=wii-cwiz" target="_blank">Spain</a> or <a href="http://www.divineo.it/php/affstart.php?affcode=66623&prod=wii-cyclowiz" target="_blank">Italy</a>.


Negative Points

Not a single thing, except they kept us waiting forever =) Nah, the chip is great after the update, all games from your region work and thats what was promised. I'm a satisfied customer at this point.

The modchip does what its supposed to do and thats play backups from your own region. If you are desperate to get a 1st gen modchip then go ahead and get the cyclowiz otherwise wait and see what happens with the wiikey/etc.


Would anyone like to add anything more or less?

What is the story with imports, now? I had thought the Cyclowiz was supposed to enable import (Wii) playability but I guess that's not the case.

Still waiting until this all-important feature is available. By "import" I mean Japanese Wii game -> US Wii.

[okknowwhat]

ya let us keep our post were we tell you all the **** weve gone through with your crap chip

[letsmod]

I don't like how under "Negative Points", the author said "Not a single thing, except they kept us waiting forever =)"

He forgot to list this as a negative:
"I also got the defective chip and had to do the tutorial here to make it working."

The fact that it was defective upon arrival should be a negative point.

[letsmod]

mod was not defective, just flawed and the fix was easy. I had to make the correction on over 50 mods I received, took me about 30 min with a dremel tool.

I updated the review to address a few people complaints and test this weeks released games. It still stands that the cyclowiz has 0 negative points in my opinion. (After the 3.0 upgrade that is).
