maybe i'm just stupid, but maybe it is possible to start the game if you already have a savegame of it on it!

I doubt that'll work, because the game most likely won't check if there already is a savegame, but if the update is already installed...

btw, I just unplugged my Wii while updating (the progress bar was at about 20%, so that seems to work fine, too) and every channel is still working fine...now I just have to try the BrickBlocked patched Metroid Prime 3, which I'm still burning (lame ass 4x recorder

)

You cannot copy a savegame of a game you never played.
(but maybe just inserting the game without the update is enough to copy the save, I don't know)

And about future fw update, I think it's like paper mario, it needed to update something in the Wii but not the firmware (on 2.2 console the game did the update anyway without changing fw version).
It's like marking the console without updating, and updating to 3.0 might have work for those who did the Mario update. (I didn't update yet).

I did the Paper Mario update and could still update to 3.0E...but Metroid Prime 3 seems to install something different, because the game won't start if it was patched with the BrickBlocker and the update wasn't installed...

Here's the deal.
I signed up to ask you guys a question.

I own a PAL Wii.
WiiKey Clone.
3.0E, updating to the latest one now (Whatever it is)

My boss legally obtained MP3 and burnt the ISO to DVD.
I was about to run it when I discovered the new method to get rid of Duplicate channels.

I don't have the ISO, only a DVD with the game burnt onto it.

Could I rip an ISO with my GDR-8136 and then use the above method?
In theory it would work, but I thught I'd rather get it confirmed.

Thanks guys.

Just wondering, if you do pull your power plug out while the firmware is in progress will you be able to do future firmware updates that Nintendo release
as you`ll more than likely need them

Yes I'm pretty confident you'll be able to.

Vater Unser · Aug 28, 2007

I can now also confirm that the trick is working...tried it on 2 Wiis

You won't need to rip it using a GDR if it's already a backed-up copy. You only need to do that for the legit copies. Just use IMGBurn and it should all be sweet.

JackAz! · Aug 28, 2007

IMGBurn?
Alright, sweet.
Thanks.

FoxMcClaud · Aug 28, 2007

you should ask your boss, if he ripped with an appropriate LG Drive, if not, then ur Iso is worthless!!

JackAz! · Aug 28, 2007

How could he possibly rip it from an original?

It's the right file size, don't worry about it.

I meant "dump", but seems u know what you are doing, so never mind.

I still play around with the ISO to see whats different, just to make sure, before i do the "10% Trick"

JackAz! · Aug 28, 2007

It's been tested on all 3 regions and it works.
What chip do you have?

Yeah i know, just curious! It seemed that they moved a bit of code, it's not an update but a minor thing, like the update for the internet channel! Maybe they changed abit of the Wiiconnect data handling for the game, so, just to be sure, you should turn of Wiiconnect24 as Pal user!

This could be the reason why they affect the News and Weather Channel, as they get data from the wiiconnect. But what about the Opinion Channel?!?

Well, who knows, tomorrow i have time to shoot the s*** out of some space pirates, back to studying for today

Remember Nintendo said they would release the updates on a game to enable use of SD and Channels to those without Internet?

Maybe this is the first game to have it.

rusuck · Aug 28, 2007

has somebody else recieved a japanese message from nintendo?

JackAz! · Aug 28, 2007

Wait, for clarification: Do I swap discs after I get the black screen, or reboot and put in the RegionFrii?

A little confused here.

FoxMcClaud · Aug 28, 2007

You make the update, with the regionfri disc, abort it, then use the brickblocker patched disc to play!!

I think rebooting, is good!
