I want a complete list of which games are not playable at the moment. I want to improve the loaders, but without even the information which games do not work, i can't even start to do anything.
Results so far:
Punch Out NTSC and PAL on JAPANESE Wiis(or Wiis with japanese system menu?):
does not work at all
Takt of Magic:
Maybe works with IOS Version patching or cioscorp when burned(needs testing). Unpatched and without cioscorp it does not work.
Does not work on usb
Burger island:
Works with IOS Version patching or cioscorp when burned. Needs confirmation if that's really required.
Does not work on usb
General rules for compatibility for disc and usb loading:
Game xy does not work on NeoGamma/SofChip ==> Game xy has no chance to work on the usb loaders
Game xy does not work on the usb loaders ==> Game xy could work on NeoGamma/SoftChip, but does not have to
Game xy works in NeoGamma/SoftChip ==> Game xy could work on the usb loaders, but does not have to
Game xy works in the usb loaders ==> Gamy xy works in NeoGamma/SoftChip too
(if you find a game for which these rules are wrong, post here)
Incompatible games for NeoGamma/SoftChip:
- none(?)
- if you have problems getting a game to work, look first at my compatibilty guide and see if the game is listed. If yes, follow the instructions on how to get it to work:

- black&white, red/black and/or scrolling screen video playback count as working, it's an import game problem, not a compatibily problem!
- problems with games working sometimes and sometimes not are releated to the media or the drive
- if you have problems and the game is not listed in my guide, post here with ALL information you can:
1. Wii region
2. Game region
3. Used loader
4. Used cIOS
5. Tried video mode options
6. Tried language options
7. Cioscorp installed?(important)
8. Game patched to use IOS249?
9. Brickcrap used? (not recommend/never required)
10. Crappy region patch used? (not recommend/only required to fix color issues, does not increase compatiblity of import games)
11. Backed up yourself?
12. How far do you get?
13. What's the issue exactly?
- Punout NTSC and PAL do not work an japaneses Wiis
Incompatible games for usb loaders:
- Everything related to other usb devices than the HDD, like lan adapter, mircophones, instruments... Some of these devices or all can be used when using Hermes' cIOS(IOS222, but not the one from Kwiirk) and a matching loader.
- All games that require to be patched to use IOS249(or as alternative having cioscorp installed), look here for the actual list:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=123307
- some games require you to insert a disc, try that first. If your dvd drive is broken this means >50% of the games are not playable for you using the regular usb loaders.
- A freeze in the middle of the game out of nowhere is mostly related to a HDD/Enclosure issue
- problems with games working sometimes and sometimes not are HDD/Enclosure issues
- Before posting problems with a game, get to know if the game does work on NeoGamma/SoftChip, if not, see the general rules.
Questions @ people who know what they are doing(if noobs try to answer these, i will get anygy):
I. What's with this monster hunter game? What's the correct name of it? Does it require cioscorp or only to be patched to IOS249?
II. Are any cIOS/usb loader combinations able to play the games that need a disc in the drive without a disc in the drive/with a dead drive?
