I recently hacked my wii, and installed the Japan-only My Pokemon Ranch Platinum version, and I am trying to connect my Platinum to it. My ENG Platinum cart doesn't recognize the game at all, no Wii connection options pop up on the start menu. I tried porting my save over to a JPN Platinum ROM run with TwilightMenu. The two connect initially, but once I click past the screen that shows the warning about Pokemon only being able to be withdrawn to the save they were deposited from, connection stops. Any advice? Do I really need to spring for a JPN Platinum cart?
