That looks very small.

- Professional ESD packing

The WiiKey can play most of the NTSC games on a PAL console. It depends on how the games were programmed. A majority of the NTSC games (JAP and US) were tested on PAL consoles, and about 70% ran without any problems. The games that did not run, won't also run in the future, but that has a technical background.

The WiiKey disposes of an unique recovery mode. If you screw your update, the chip can be reprogrammed over its recovery mode.

100% quicksolder. There are no wires needed, the WiiKey is soldered completely to the board via quicksolder.

That is annoying to see that one 70% of JAP and US games will work. Especially as most people wanting to use this will be needing it to run games that are not released in the PAL region.
