    Gaming Official Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Discussion Thread

    Just a quick question, seeing how that the RRP of the GBA pokemon games is the same as the DS pokemon games here in Australia, if I were to get a DS flash-cart of some description, would I be able to play the GBA games, and then copy them across to my D/P game? Also, which card would be suited...

    Gaming Whats the deal with other region updates

    Interestingly, I just updated my Wii to 3.2E (got an email from nintendo... check your Wii's everyone!). Does this mean that Brawl won't update if I put in the japanese version?

    Gaming Hammers in brawl

    According to the official SSBB website, you only get 3. EVER. (By ever, I think they mean per save file...) So I don't think they're obtainable in any other way...

    Gaming Rants about SSBB Characters...

    I for one am glad that the returning characters aren't carbon copies of the ones in SSBM. It means that everyone aren't experts straight from the word go. Although, that may be just me, as I play this game for fun, not really for uber-competition mode.

    Gaming Smash Brothers Dairantou X Help/Instruction Thread

    Question: I've found a local import shop here in Australia that is going to import SSBB US version when it is released. If I were to play the japanese backup version until that is released, I would need to update my Wii and get the duplicate channels, etc. etc. When I get the US version, I'll...

    Hacking The Single layer SSBB UPDATE thread

    As I'm very much a settings-oriented guy, if you allow the game to fully update, and you get the duplicate channels, are you still able to access all of the settings and everything? I already have the latest firmware installed. Sorry if this has been answered already... I checked through the...

    Hacking Let me get some things cleared up.

    One other question to add to the large pile building up... I read rumours going around this site a while ago that an original copy of SSBB wouldn't work in a Japanese Wii with a WiiKey installed, because the WiiKey didn't support dual layer or something. Was this true? And if this is true...

    Hacking PAL to play Brawl?

    I think it's still unconfirmed working for PAL. Let us know if it does work however, as I'm in a very similar boat to you. In fact, the EXACT same boat... Hope there's enough life jackets in case this boat sinks if it doesn't work...

    Hacking So let me get this straight

    Keep in mind he's quoting US prices, so it's probably about double that for an Aussie. I work in Sound and Vision at a Kmart and we've got 5 packs for less than $30, so not *too* pricey...

    With this "Mp3 trick", where the progress bar has to be under the "w" in power, is that for 4:3 TV's or 16:9 TV's? Or doesn't it matter?

    Hacking Quick Wiikey question

    Since this seems to be quite a new thread, I'll post my question in here. I've been thinking about getting a WiiKey, and I know there are inherrent dangers in "bricking" it. Is there any way to recover your Wii to working order after "bricking" it? Or do you have to go out and buy a new one?

    Good Quality Headphones

    That's not insane... I paid $300 (admittedly, Aussie) for my Beyer DT 770's, but then again, I'm a sound designer by trade, and as such I need a great pair of Pro-Audio grade cans. But yeah, headphones for around the $30 mark will more or less be disposable... Probably get about 6 - 8 months...

    Hacking I hope someone can test SSBB+pal wii+any modchip

    barcafc, you'll probably have to wait until they release a wiikey patch to get it working with wiikeys. as soon as they do though, I'll be interested to know of the results, as if it does work, I'll be buying a wiikey immediately
