I modded my wii with the drive key, a solderless pass through chip that goes on the ribbon cable from the unit to the drive, took 1 day to get it express from this site, and about <30 mins to install and works a charm.
CHIP, http://mods-hq.com.au/drive-key-wii-mod-p-190.html specs are on the page.
TOOLS, you need a small phillips head and a tri wing to open it up, i managed to get it open with a small flathead. http://mods-hq.com.au/wii-screwdriver-kit-%C2%96-triwing-philips-p-302.html
INSTALLATION
OPEN CASING, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gza0eaL6DAQ

GAMES, http://thepiratebay.org/top/405 or any other torrent site, Burned with ImgBurn on Verbatim DVD+R
you do need the lg drive to read/rip the games also either on of these
LG-8164b
LG-8163b
LG-8162b
LG-8161b
apparently there are a few other ones that work like certain pioneer drives and HP drives.
Not sure if soft modding was a better option but thats what i did, theres heaps of other killer chips on the mods-hq site that do different things.
This voids the the warranty but who cares, fuck paying $100 a game when you dont have to pay fuck all!!
