I clicked this link and a part of me was hoping that someone actually published a game where you hunt Canadians. I don't hate them, I just think it would be hilarious.


I'm in the same boat. I am so disappointed right now.

when I first saw that I thought it was a Chuck Norris game rofl.gif


That would be an awesome concept if it came with Chuck Norris Action Wii Remote Jackets.


But seriously, does this game include half working animatronic creatures and a ball pit smelling vaguely of vomit???

could someone please explain to me why they pack it in multiple parts and NOT compress it? thats just plain stupid!
yes i know why they use parts, but i dont know why they dont use compression for a way smaller size. not to mention rar, a commercial crapression app! 7z ftw


Because it's not really a compressible file. Try it yourself, dump a Wii game (or use a nonscrubbed pre-existing dump) and 7zip or rar it, you will save little to no disk space at all. Data like movies, disk images, etc do not compress well. If you want to make a release smaller, the solution is to scrub out the garbage data and fill it with something that you can compress. If you do that, it's not a 1:1 copy and not a "proper" release. Hope that helps clear it up.

Sounds like you are suffering from a lack of Trucha on your system. Either Trucha Bug Restorer or DopIOS Mod v9 should be able to assist you in this matter.


Thanks, I used the TBR, then I had no trouble installing the ios249. With that all set, the wad files installed correctly, so I tried some games, Contra Rebirth, Ocarina of Time and SMB64, I then moved them from the WiiHDD to the SD card, Contra launched and worked, but Zelda and Mario wouldnt lanch, Launch Error it said. The games wad pack I downloaded says USA, so I guess its some region related error.

As for the Neogamma, I still cant play NSMBW, and it still says: "No patch found". I put the wip files in the root of the Neogamma folder, isnt that correct?


You can use StartPatch to remove the region restrictions for WiiWare and Virtual Console content from the system. Also, Trucha patch your system IOS (60 for 4.0/4.1 or 70 for 4.2) to help with the SD loading situation. If it's not Trucha patched, it can be quirky with some titles.

No idea on the neogamma issue, I've never used it!

You should update the main post to say able to run with the newest Neogamma with the SD patches (wip i think) without having to patch the ISO in any way.
At least that works for me...


Yeah, forgot to mention those, this is what happens to me: when I start Neogamma it says that Im not running on the ios249(which I cant install seemingly) but it starts anyway and Ive set the loader to "search for patches", but when i load the game it says "no patches found" or maybe it was "no patch found" dont remember exactly right now, either way, I still cant get the NSMB game to run properly.

Also, seems like I cannot install any Wad files, I get the ERROR! (ret = -2011) on all wad files. My wii has been modded with a wiikey2 for a long time, but its just now that Ive tried to install wad files. Ive looked around and some say that to stop getting the 2011 error you need to downgrade your system menu, is this the only way? Seems to me people are running homebrew in 4.1 with no problems.
