Why is everyone using disks? Why not USB loader or something?

A lot of people don't have large enough USB drives they can use

Oh yeah I guess. I use my old WD 500GB drive so I dont have to worry about running out of space

Dual layer discs in wiis have been known, since they are so big, to come into contact with the laser lens in the disc drive, rendering the wii unable to read any discs. This first happened with Brawl, it being a Dual Layer disc. The easiest temporary fix for this is to buy the official nintendo Wii Lens Cleaner, as it wipes the lens clean. This only works for a short time, as my wii has the same issue, and i have used this fix twice so far. You can re use the lens cleaner as needed. The harder temporary fix is to open the wii yourself and clean it, which requires a tri-wing screw driver. Finally the supposed permanent fix is to buy a new laser online and replace the lens, also requiring a triwing but as a permanent fix its probably more worth it that way.

Can anyone help me out with actual gameplay? I am in sector one and theres only one way I can go and I need super missiles but I was never authorized to use them so I dont know what to do.

Edit: Oh nevermind. I figured it out. I always figure out what to do as soon as I post online.

anybody know yet how to burn this? layer break? burn speed?
Layer break: 2084960
Burn Speed: 4x

All this talk about how the Wii will stop working when this thing is put in is scaring me to do this. I have burned DL disks before and put them in the Wii but hearing these problems makes me scared to burn this. is there a problem with this game..I already have a ModChip

I beg to differ on that one... I have a Wiikey v1, burned using that layer break and it will not work from disc channel after requesting system update and it freezes at Baby's Cry cutscene with Gecko and NeoGamma. So... modchip is not a gimmee at all, unfortunately.

Plays from disc channel for me with yaosm and doesnt freeze at the baby's cry cutscene.

Should be no problems with modchips, just burn and play.

Ok good..I was just worried when I read about people's Wii's bricking because of this one game so I did not want to take any chances. I have played a few DL disk games on my Wii before and it was fine but hearing about all the problems with this one scared me

Which version did you burn? WiiTard untouched?
Not sure which version the files where just named Metroid_ Other M.xxx but if WiiTard version is good then I dont see it shouldnt work.

The game doesnt appear to work from the disc channel with the wiikey, I've just tried my wiikey and it didnt work.

okay from all these replies, yet this dump is supposedly working perfectly (usb loadergx i hope) because this iso has been modified with the update thingy removed.

so does this mean despite the fact this not technically a proper dump, the game runs ABSOLUTELY PERFECT?, as in everything is playable in the game, absolutely no graphic bugs or weird colours, or loading lags or lags in general, the cinematics is perfect too from beginning to finish?

Yes, but the ISO must be 100% unmodified to be a scene release. That ISO had the update removed, making it no longer a scene release. Just because a game gets nuked doesn't mean it doesn't work.

Thanks. I was wondering this and now I don't have to. Thanks for the info.
