Wiikey 2 was launched in 2008 and is still the first choice for people seeking a solution to play DVD backups on DMS-D2E based Wii drives. 

The WiiKey 2 mod chip is installed on the Wii DVD drive chip and not on the Nintendo Wii motherboard making it undetectable by the wii firmware.  It causes the DVD identification sensor to read a backup or copy CD as an original and send a message to the motherboard to run the CD as such.  The WiiKey mod chip directly boots Wii backups (iso files burned to a DVD-R), Game Console backups, and homebrew.

	The WiiKey 2 installation is one of the most simple on the market, it supports a 5 wire install for the older DMS or D2B boards, while having a solid 6-wire install for the D2C / D2C2 & D2E model consoles. So the WiiKey 2 will support all the current drives on the market and possibly any future ones to come as well. We have no doubt that there will be a D2F console due sometime in the near future, and from what the official team tell us it sounds like they should be able to add D2F support to the WiiKey 2 if that chipset is not too much of a variation from the current ones such as D2E. The stability and compatibility of the WiiKey v2 is what you have come to expect from this team, all titles boot first time every time without an glitches which have been found in some other chips on the market, you can feel confidant when installing these chips you won’t hear back from the customers.		Another feature of the WiiKey v2 is that like the first model it is totally flash upgradeable using DVD, you just download the latest firmware update from the official website and burn it to DVD and run it in your console, this will then update your chip to the latest firmware. The team will release firmware updates whenever a bug is found with the chips code, or if a game comes out that is not supported by the current firmware on the chip. This function means that this chip will never become obsolete and you won’t have to replace it with another one later down the track because it ceases to function because of a Wii system update or any other unforseen reason to stop the current firmware from working. The team behind the WiiKey 2 are famous for supporting their products and you can be assured that the WiiKey 2 will have the same great support & updates we have all come to expect from this company.
	High Speed Lattice Core IC Low power design with ultra high speed pathways make the WiiKey 2 the hottest chip for Wii this yearThe WiiKey v2 was made with the end user in mind, there are no tricks or hidden procedures that can confuse the user, just burn your backup and insert it and the WiiKey 2 will play. You will of course have to run the configuration disk the first time you install the chip to setup the chips options you would like on such as the brick blocker or all region support, but after that initial setup you can forget about having to mess around with settings. The WiiKey 2 will play games from all regions no matter which region your console is from, and as we mentioned in the top section of this page has a brick blocker function that will make sure you can never damage your Wii by accepting an update from a game outside your consoles region, the WiiKey 2 is user friendly right to the core.
