Hey Guys

I have a bit of a situation and wondering if someone can help
my son has show an interest in drumming, he is 8 and i thought that rather than buying him an expensive set of electronic drums to find he loses interest, a safer bet was for me to get a second hand set of rock band drums, and if he gets interested, away we go i would get him a electronic set

This is just a bit of background

so i own a wii and decided to look at some drums and guitar which i found for a very reasonable price

i load up the game and give it a whirl and hits are out and the experience is shocking
I have played this game before on the ps3 so i knew it was not me being a terrible player.

this is what i have experienced and done so far

  • when the game is about to start i can hit each pad and tap the kick peddle and all register in time on the screen and the sound coming from the tv is in time
  • when i start playing the hits dont seem to register as they should
  • i have attempted to calibrate and play around with this, and i "think" i have seen some improvement, but really not enough
  • Ive tried different controllers on the drum kit
  • tried moving closer to the console

It is fair to say i am at a bit of a loss, the lag makes the game unusable because the performance is so bad, the game kicks me off
ideas welcome, aside from buying a ps3 :P

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
