I have the most recent CFG USB Loader as well, it seems to be an issue with the game using a Japan region console regardless of the steps to turn it into an english console/ run it under forced english settings.


Here's the fix. Use Wiiscrubber to replace the original Main.dol with the fix'd main.dol posted below, as shown in this image

---- (Not sure why the original was deleted, hopefully it'll remain active as I now have an account with mediafire.)

Edit:There also seems to be a way to change it by modifying your wiishop reigon using http://wiibrew.org/wiki/AnyRegion_Changer , as tubebar posted in the other thread.

Somebody knows what's different in the .dol? Sounds like Country String patching or similar. Did you try the Country String patching option?

Yeah, that has been tried. I modified the dol myself, using a similar method that was used in the JAP release of Kirby's Epic Yarn.

To those who need the fix, what you need to do is extract the main.dol from the game, using WiiScrubber, then edit the Main.dol using a hex editor.

Replacing the "JAPN" text with "ENGL" in the main.dol resolved my issue. Use CTRL+F ENGL with your hex editor.

Thanks i added it to my todo list. Right now Country String patching does the same, but only with 2 chars("US" or "JP"), next will have it with 2/3/4 chars.
