Hi,
a friend of mine recently gave me his usa copy of mario kart 8. I was worried initially that it wouldn't run on my pal region wii u (and it didn't...) I decided I wanted to make my wii u region free. I changed the region code in a system xml file in my wii u' system files and was able to successfully initiate the game booting process via the disk application. As exciting as this accomplishment was, there was one issue.... the game wouldn't leave the initial loading menu. I used all kinds of region-lock related homebrew apps. No homebrew software fixed the issue of not being able to actually load mario kart 8. However, there was one homebrew app called "Spiik" which changed mario kart 8's loading screen issue from ending in a loud abrupt noise to a never ending loop of engine noises. This felt like a promising advancement but it really wasn't. I realize other people have asked questions related to this issue but I never saw a fix for their issues. I know there is a way to get passed mario kart 8's loading screen issue... I just haven't found it yet. Can someone please help point me in the right direction? If people have had this issue before, surely somebody has made or has considered creating a solution. And no, I do not want to run mario kart 8 in Cemu.
Thanks.
