I have one question...why is it such an issue to be able to load from the disc channel that the Nintendo has on their from factory? If you can put a wad on in the main channel and load from that then what's the problem?! I like the idea of having 2 channels one for originals and the other for backups.... It's not hard to teach a 5 year old the difference either...one has your handwriting or maybe a print from some CD cover burner...but to me.... I think that Wiigator deserves to have his own channel dedicated to the backups... also further more it let's you pop up a menu to help load the game the way you need it to...
This is only my opinion... as for the loader's imcompatibility issues of now... We knew this from the start that he was going to release this to the public. So the ones that keep bitching about not being able to get a game working that everyone else seems to have no problems with... then it's more likely your fault..
I have 3 different burners... .and the one I use to burn all my games w/ is a LITE-ON DVDRW LH-20A1P KLON (USB)...I got it from Walmart..for around $50 (the avg cost of newly released Wii game)...
I know I said that I burn with IMGBurn 2.4.2 (latest)... I buy my discs at Walmart...$15 for 50 Memorex DVD+R or DVD-Rs (I've even used the HP brand discs) I have not tried any DVD-RWs..but one and that was w/ the 1st launcher when it 1st released...2.4x speed is recommended by alot of us from the beginning. (Again, dust your PC and Wii off or break out a Hustler)
For the expert that was talking about CDfreaks or whatever it was called... that's just making it complicated.... and burn it with whatever speed you want!? OK... It's really all a matter of opinion...
but if go with the flow and most likely you will have the success that we've had on the current compatible games.
I'm sorry if this sounds like a bitch-session...but the fact is if your a new guy....then research this stuff. Most of you are in school probably so it's not like you don't know how to. Google and Wikipedia are friends not foes... Wiibrew is a good ally to have as well. When I heard about the Wan leak and reregestered back on here... I didn't even attempt to try Wan's leaked loader... I read thread after thread... I found some people that were serious about helping..(ahem! DJTaz) And I told him about being nervous about trying it in the risk of a bricked Wii... (I have still not heard of one yet that has..)
I've heard of some errors installing different stuff but people were able to recover.
Bottom line. I know it's 292 pages just on this one thread alone...not counting the others...but read!
And then read again! If you are that interested, then you will. Don't be afraid to ask someone (PM them)... Myself or DJTaz and quite a few others are here to take some load off Wiigator and Wan...
If you are having trouble still...wait until something more official comes out and don't let Nintendo update your Wii.
I apologize if I offended anyone this is not directed at the people that have been here since the project started... but if you would just print out the install text and watch a few videos off You Tube... (That's what I did)... Just like in my line of work... Measure twice and cut once... Same applies here.
If you are new and still have problems and no one will help.... give me a PM. I just think some of these questions are getting ridiculous. And I'm not just talking about the ones in this thread.. I just think it boils down to people really not knowing what they are doing because they want to skip to the dessert first...if ya know what I mean.
