I just set up Aroma on my Wii U, and I've been messing around with the Vwii side of things. Metroid Prime Trilogy is giving me some issues: Metroid Prime 1 and 2 work perfectly fine, but whenever I try to launch Metroid Prime 3 the screen goes blank after the game loading screen, hangs up, and crashes back to the Wii U menu after a couple of minutes. This behavior happens in both USBloader GX and WiiFlowLite. Does anybody here know of a fix?
 
Hello,

Your game might be corrupted?

Recreate your dump (original copy) and test again.
 
When these games came out, the way they loaded was a little different than others. I think that the main menu does another "relaunch" into each of the games after you select them. Caused crashing at the time. I can't recall the fix, but it was either some setting that was added or just updating. Check that you're on the latest version and see if you can't research any fixes?
 
IOS reloading was the issue. The old solution was to use the alt dol approach to skip the main dol / game, and you chose the alt dol corresponding to the specific game u want to load. MPT and house of the dead 2&3 are examples.

Alt dol method is no longer necessary so long as using the latest softmods/cios which can support ios reloading

So, OP should make sure his cios are up to date and his loader is also up to date.
