Hello everyone,

my google skills aren't strong enough for this scenario and if you don't mind helping me again, it will be greatly appreciated!

I use USB Loader GX on the VWii side of my Wii U. I installed a backup of my original "WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!" disc. But the 100% save game I had is long gone.. I got one from the internet (source : https://www.gamefaqs.com/gamecube/918882-warioware-inc-mega-party-game/saves ).

It's a .gci file and I am not sure what to do. I read I had to transfer my Wario Ware inc save game on the sd card. I did and this file appeared on SD:\private\wii\title\RODE\data.bin

I'm not even sure it is my Wario save file but this appeared right after I transfered the save soooo.. It might be it, right?

What should I do from there? I'm completly lost. I guess there is an easy way to do this.. Right?

I don't mind beating the game again because it's fun but it would give me unfair practice over my friends. I prefer to discover my game at he same pace my friends do with me! :)

Thanks for your support! I've been able to achieve so much with the help of this community!

If you're using a memory card, use GCMM to copy the gci to it.

If you're using memcard emulation, you can use Dolphin's memcard manager to import it.

I read I had to transfer my Wario Ware inc save game on the sd card. I did and this file appeared on SD:\private\wii\title\RODE\data.bin
And that's the save for warioware smooth moves. You don't need it.

Thank you for your replies. I used Dolphin's memcard manager to import it.

I had a lot of trouble to get the raw file to work under USB Loader GX though.. After a lot of testing, I finally figured out the setting proposed on the url is wrong (well, for what I want to do anyways). I had to set Memcard Emulation to Single. It was the ONLY way to make it work.

I'm not sure what that means but at least it works :)

Thank you again!

    Switch 2 will be your most powerful handheld (most likely) but Nintendo has always been a generation behind Sony/ Xbox, so doubt it will get the newest of games, n if it does, will be a watered down version, like Switch 1 got
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Most powerful hardly series x specs will still crap on it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most powerful handheld I said. I imagine it won't last long tho, ROG or Steamdeck 2 will prob overpower it. I will prob buy a switch2 tho, gotta have that Mariokart 9.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I kinda doubt that also Asus will keep releasing or if Xbox doesn't come out with some handheld by then
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm thinking of selling my current drum machine, piano keyboard, and few synthesizers, and buy a new $699 drum machine/ workstation. Downsize but upgrade. But like any device, ill never get the money I paid into it. Hard to let stuff go for half what you paid.

    @K3Nv3, just my opinion but more games on the platform does increase the odds of some of them being awesome
