i have a pal machine with d2ckey installed. do i have to patch each usa game with regionfrii?? reason i ask is that other usa games seem to work without this?
i have about 40 usa games to burn but dont want to have 40 coasters

As long as the D2C key was installed to allow regionfree, then they will work fine. If you got it professionally done then you'll be fine.

Short answer: No you don't have to patch the isos, go for it

you;ll be fine without patching as stated, this is also true of those with a wiikey or cyclowiz, but paranoid people still feel the need to use regionfrii or wiifree to patch the games when their chips do the job on the fly

Don't forget that not all games are region free. Check the compatibility list on Wikitemp if you're not sure.

I just installed a d2ckey chip on a PAL wii and it was working while in version 2.1E, i came home and did the updates and ever since it stop reading the discs both originals and backups!

I left the region overide untouched when solding the chip (tested the backup of Zelda and worked) any ideas?

EDIT:

I set the d2ckey to PAL and fixed a loose wire :x it's all perfect now, backups and originals

    @SylverReZ, I dislike the kind of drm where you have to play single player games online all the time bc of some verification bs

    @Xdqwerty, Don't use games that have Easy Anti-Cheat as its been exploited many times.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    @SylverReZ, i think they have been doing that since late 2000s

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
