Yeah, that's the weird thing, I totally saw an update file in data management. But I saw that when I copied v208 on there myself as well. Bizarre. I'll try downloading and copying over an older version and see if it updates properly, and if that doesn't work I'll try the hex editor and set it to FF FF as godreborn suggests. I'll update with my progress.

Thanks again for everyone's input.
Most likely a message will appear when you try booting the game. I don't recall the exact message, but I don't think the game will even be bootable if a lower version is detected.

Thanks V10lator, I'll check that out.

I want to bang my head against a brick wall, I think I've got it. When I went into data management, it said something about wanting to delete "unnecessary files" on the USB drive, but I kept skipping that because it said it would take up to 30 minutes, and I was installing on the NAND anyway. I removed the downloaded update and reinstalled the game, but the wii u installer/loader borked when installing the update. I went into data management on the NAND where I had tried to install and it gave me that same unnecessary files message on the NAND now as well, so I deleted it (it took like 10 seconds). I went back and deleted the unnecessary files on the USB drive as well, installed the v208 update again, and now it works.

I really appreciate everyone's input though, I'm amazed at how responsive you all were. Thanks all! This community rocks.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
