Unreadable HDD?

02 May 2009 - 03:33 AM

I just purchased an external HDD today specifically for the Wii. Using WBFS Manager, I was unable to format into WBFS. Instead, I formatted directly from the USB Loader. That worked just fine. But, my PC was still unable to read my HDD. I tried pretty much all the WBFS programs I could find, and used "Run as Admin" also. Still no go.

I tried the HDD on another PC using WBFS Manager. Surprisingly, it worked. Both computers are running Vista 32-bit. Disk Management shows the HDD as 'Unreadable', so that could be problem. I'm unable to reformat, partition, or anything of the sort on my PC using Disk Management. I'm running out of ideas.

Anyone know a possible solution?

EDIT: For anyone wondering. The HDD works just fine on the Wii. All games I've tried run perfect.

MMOs are getting more action-oriented

02 December 2008 - 11:57 AM

I'm sure for alot of people, MMOs are getting more stale. Each one as similar as the next. Age of Conan was probably a step in the right direction, but it's execution wasn't great. Korean MMOs (Cause Korea loves MMOs) are starting a new approach from what I can tell, replacing the more passive MMO gameplay with much more active gameplay. These new MMOs to all have the same philosophy in common: Better graphics, better physics, faster gameplay, larger environments, and bigger breasts. Some of these are a bit old news, but still are very impressive.

Continent of the Ninth (C9)

Blade and Soul

Kingdom Under Fire II (A RTS, but still more action oriented than any online strategy game)


And just so nobody questions it, these are all gameplay videos. Not teasers.

Wario Land Shake It Save File?

01 October 2008 - 05:44 AM

I've tried my luck with Wario Land using the Backup Loader. Out of 12 attempts, I only got to the intro level once. It froze upon completing that stage during loading. I've spent hours waiting for this intro video and pray that I can actually get to the first world.

I figured an easier solution would be to get a save file past the first stage. So if anyone has one, I'd gladly appreciate it. If you have a save file beyond the first level, thats also fine.

Thanks.

EDIT:
Apparently, I didn't search hard enough. There is already a save file posted on the boards. Lock this please.

Rockman 7 8-Bit Remake

03 September 2008 - 04:57 AM

If your itching to get your hands on Megaman 9, then this should hold you over for a little.

Japanese fanboys have recreated SNES Rockman 7 completely in 8-bit form. The graphics, music, and engine are all almost perfect rendition of the NES Rockman games. This a freeware PC game for Windows. Remember this game is in Japanese, but there is only a tiny bit of dialog anyway. It shouldn't bother anyone.




Megaman/Rockman is one of my favorite series (Obviously only the platform genre ones), its awesome to see this game in old school style. Honestly, I like this one a bit better than the original SNES. The 8-Bit graphics just have some kind of charm to them.

Remember guys, Megaman 9 is to be released this month. Show your support! grog.gif

Sigma Harmonics Help Thread

Sigma Harmonics Help Thread

Seems everyone enjoys this game, but have no idea what they're doing. So I decided to start this thread to get people on the right track. Keep in mind, I have absolutely no Japanese knowledge, everything here was found through trial and error. Feel free to add your own bits of tips here.

-=Battle Basics=-
If you've gotten into a battle, and find yourself just hitting air, your not understanding the battle system. In Sigma Harmonics, battles takes place in 4 directions, with enemies surrounding you.

The radar on the bottom left shows all your enemies as well as the direction your currently facing (In this case, up). Depending on what card you use to attack, will determine how Neon will rotate herself or what action she will take. Knowing what each card does is important. Here are the few cards in the beginning that you should know.
List of cards w/ pictures and action descriptions  


Sometimes, you might find two enemies near each other in the same direction. After you finish off one enemy there, you'll automatically focus on the next, as long as your still facing it.

After Stage 1, you'll get access to Battle Music and Job Change. I'm still working with those, so I'll put some info when I'm sure I know how to use them.


-=Progressing in the game=-


The game's story involves murder mysteries that you have to unravel. Though the game is fortunately very lenient when it comes to this. There are multiple ways to complete a stage, though they all involve using the Reason Board. Of course, not knowing whats going on could make this very hard. By watching the "Event Markers" (I have no idea what they're really called, just work with me people), you'll earn tokens for use on the Reason Board. These will determine your decisions when solving the mysteries.

If you've tried all the token combinations and still are stuck, then your probably missing some. In the center of the building is a clock. By 'Searching' it, you can offer up a card to change the time. For example, Stage 1 starts at 12:00. There are two events at 12, but you if change the time to 9:00, you'll find two more events. When you complete the Reason Board with these tokens, you'll come to the boss. As I said before, the game is lenient when it comes to solving these. Your choices on the reason board determine the bosses' strength. The boss could take out 100 HP per hit, or 5 HP, all depending on your choices on the board. If your having trouble on a boss, then try different combinations.

After defeating the boss, you'll earn a rank. I am not sure but I believe the rank is determined through Reason Board path and hidden Hint Tokens (Blue Sparkles on the ground, they are found in certain places, at certain times, and sometimes after certain events.).
